Thanks!

Buckley is amazing. Especially amazing how he could keep a straight face when Jackson was trying to sound intelligent by using big words incorrectly.

“anachronistically” LOL

(Sometimes I like to use big words I don’t understand in an effort to sound more photosynthesis.)

Holy cow.

Quote: “If I were to answer precisely I would be libelous”

At least that’s what I think I heard. Slander vs. Libel. Fact vs. Libel. He is ignorant on so many levels.

.... and the hits just keep on coming...

Easy to pick on the grammar/vocabulary, but the substance is equally awful. The sad part is that Jackson occasionally does stumble toward a valid point, but then manages to shoot himself in the foot before he gets there.

... back to the video now.

Champion of aesthetic conservatism.

He wanted to be right. Unfortunately, the Left wanted to win and they did.

We need men of the Right who want to beat the Left, not to play mind games.

“He’d be ashamed today”

Which is why we lost.

People today don’t understand how fortunate they are to have such a wide range of conservative media available to them - TV, internet, print, all any hour of the day or night, over and over again if you want it - I lived back in the day when Buckley’s “Firing Line” - one hour each week - was the only breath of conservative fresh air we could look forward to - he kept a lot of us going......
