This Russell Kirk lecture, although riddled with typos, is another one worth reading.
I'll later post his speeches on popular conservatives and neoconservatives.
Here is a link to the thread with his lecture on cultural conservatives:

I think that Libertarians have much to offer the public discourse. They are consistant in their ideas.

The term "libertarianism"is distasteful to people who think seriously about politics. Yea, I hate your guts too. Now what ass hole?

Thanks for posting.

Thanks for posting. It did make good reading.
However I lost respect for Russel Kirk with this one, he employed every rhetorical vice in a single essay. He makes an ad hominen attack on a straw man while contradicting himself in the process.
