By druggist on | From videoondemandtv.goorusales.com

Firing Line with William F. Buckley Jr. “Presidential Hopeful: Ronald Reagan” Taped on January 14, 1980The wish was father to the thought: instead of asking Reagan conventionally worded questions about his candidacy, as he had done with Messrs. Dole, Anderson, and Crane, Buckley addressed his guest (without advance warning) as if the inauguration had already taken place: “I should like to begin by asking President Reagan: What would you do if, say, one afternoon you were advised that a...Read Full Story

Firing Line with William F. Buckley Jr. “The President and the Press” Taped on September 12, 1966A masterly performance from Pierre Salinger, who reacts smoothly, very smoothly, to Mr. Buckley’s attempts to get him to admit that the press generally gave President Kennedy a free ride. Salinger: “The objective of a presidential press conference is not, in my opinion, for reporters to have the opportunity to embarrass and harass the president, but rather to elicit from him the information...Read Full Story

Firing Line with William F. Buckley Jr. “Three vs. William F. Buckley Jr.” Taped on July 21, 1978In this installment of the semiannual turning of the tables, the guests question their host on everything from government spending to the Equal Rights Amendment and abortion to aid to authoritarian regimes. Two samples: Pilpel: “I think what we can agree on in disputes of this kind is that the role of the government, in a culturally diverse, pluralistic society, is to be neutral.” Buckley: “My...Read Full Story

Newt Gingrich Statement on the Passing of William F. Buckley, Jr.

From writing books, to creating, leading and sustaining National Review Magazine, to his 33-year run as the host of Firing Line on television, Bill Buckley became the indispensable intellectual advocate from whose energy, intelligence, wit, and enthusiasm the best of modern conservatism drew its inspiration and encouragement. It was not until William F. Buckley, Jr., founded National Review Magazine in 1955 that the tide began to slowly turn...

Damage Control: MRC Rushes to Gingrich's Defense Again

The last time Newt Gingrich was in trouble, the Media Research Center's Brent Bozell rushed to his defense (in a factually deficient fashion) and even played the Buckley card by declaring that his uncle, conservative icon William F. Buckley, would never have treated Gingrich so shabbily for his ethical faux pas as the editors of the Buckley-founded National Review are treating him.Now, another piece of Gingrich's past has come back to...

Cheering for RomneyCare: Ann Coulter’s Chris Buckley Moment

Ann Coulter abandons conservatism by attempting to justify RomneyCare, that horrid Frankenstein monster created by GOP candidate, Mitt Romney. What's behind her latest, "Three Cheers for RomneyCare"? Is this Coulter's shuffle over to Obamaism? Is it an acceptance of liberalism? Or is it nothing more than Coulter suffering a "Christopher Buckley moment?"
