William F. Buckley, brown bread. That's one less cheerleader of racism, one less opponent of democracy. Like the Nazis "Mr. Fbuckley" (Lily Tomlin) believed in the right of an élite - to which he belonged of course - to rule over the ignorant masses. Gore Vidal called him a crypto-nazi, though he later said he meant to call him a crypto-fascist.
I learn he had a son though I've yet to see any mention of a wife. I always thought he was a closet gay as well as a (not very) closet fascist, the homophobe's homo. He once stated that gay men should have an AIDS warning tattooed on their buttocks. I suppose any careful bugger would agree with that.
