RIP Intellectual giant

It probably comes across as bizarre to read a eulogy to a Conservative giant from a liberal libertarian. However, I very much respected the views of William F Buckley Jr. Note that I didn't always agree with them. What's interesting about the timing of his death is that it basically comes at the end of the destruction of Buckley's version of Conservatism. If Ronald Reagan represents the pinnacle of Buckley Conservatism, then one would have to say that Bush Conservatism is its ultimate betrayal. RIP giant, you won't have to see the death of your vision anymore.
