Yep. I lived off of National Review and American Spectator in the early to mid 90’s. They were about the only decent sources for conservative commentary at the time. My, how things have changed.
Ain’t that the truth! I THINK, but am not sure, that American Spectator is still around, and may be OK. It used to be great in the old days, far more down to earth than the NR. In the old days, though, I loved them both. I still admire Buckley’s intellect—what a brain. I used to love watching him just GUT liberals on his tv show. Then, though, he decided to be the arbiter of “acceptable conservatism” and harmed Sobran and Buchanan. That was it for me.
