Loved this book. Hers is one of the first conservative women's voices I remember. She made a substantial contribution. I miss her already.

Kate O’Beirne was part of National Review’s world before she joined the staff. When she became the magazine’s Washington editor in 1995 her resume already included stints at Senator Jim Buckley’s office, the Reagan administration, and the Heritage Foundation. She served NR in that position for eleven years and then became president of National Review Institute for six more.

Please correct headline to Kate. Thank you.
Loved this book. Hers is one of the first conservative women's voices I remember. She made a substantial contribution. I miss her already.
RIP
She used to be regular on all the cable shows. I wonder why she fell off the radar, always enjoyed her.
If I recall correctly, she was also on the PBS show “McLaughlin Group”, having the non-enviable task of politely, but firmly pointing out reality to Eleanor Rodham Clifton.
She was one of the good ones

Ahhh yes. I remember her from the McLaughlin Group, back in the days before Fox News. We lost McLaughlin too about a year ago. Kate was not that old, I think about 68 years old. That’s young these days, especially for a woman.
Yup, Manhasset. Town next to my husband’s. Loved her and she was younger than I imagined.
She was a smart classy woman. I’ve missed her these past few years. She must have been saddened by the state of political discourse these days.
According to Wikipedia, she was a chain smoker, and died of lung cancer.
Sorry to hear of her passing. Always liked her on Capital Gang and remember the eulogy she gave at Barbara Olson’s memorial service after 9/11.
RIP. One of the sane voices on the moonbat-dominated poli talk shows.
Well, she is the late Kate O'Beirne...
Condolences to family and friends of Kate O’Bierne. R.I.P.
love
Sad to hear - RIP, Kate.....
