William F Buckley Dies

The great droll, cantankerous, intellectual who never met an argument he didn't like has passed away at the age of 82. You don't have to support his ideas or policies to appreciate his passion for argument and intelligent discourse. Watch the video below, a debate between Buckley and Gore Vidal from 1968 about the qualities needed to be President. It would be charming if it wasn't so timely.
