WILLIAM F. BUCKLEY

I liked him.

In a famous exchange with Gore Vidal in 1968, Vidal said to Buckley: "As far as I am concerned, the only crypto Nazi I can think of is yourself."
Buckley replied: "Now listen, you queer. Stop calling me a crypto Nazi, or I'll sock you in your goddamn face and you'll stay plastered."
Years later, in 1985, Buckley said of the incident: "We both acted irresponsibly. I'm not a Nazi, but he is, I suppose, a fag."(

Buckley also threatened to bash Noam Chomsky in the face. He demanded respect....or he would bash your G/D face.

And nevermore will there be another.
He meant it. Smiling, but, he meant it. You could tell. He was former infantry, I think. His bio said that he was an Army 2nd looie and was an member of FDR's honor guard at the funeral.

So, yeah, I think he meant it.

Witty, smart, gracious and exciting to watch in debates. I once saw Buckley debate John Kenneth Galbraith at Tulane University - truly exciting to watch. Buckley walked up to the taller of the two podiums leaving the shorter podium to the 6'9" Galbraith. The moderator informed Buckley that Galbraith's podium was too short. Buckley replied, "That alright by the end of this debate that short podium will be plenty tall enough for Galbraith".
