One of the great leaders of Conservatism died yesterday at his home in New York. I don’t know much about Bill Buckley, but I know that he influenced some of the greatest public servants of our time. People such as Ronald Reagan and Barry Goldwater wouldn’t have been able to have done what they did without Bill Buckley. He started National Review when he was 29, in 1955. He is an inspiration to me, and I think that all bloggers who claim to care about the conservative movement should aspire to be like him.
Godspeed, WFB.
