Now that William F. Buckley is dead

[Sarah Ibarruri]

I've heard even lib people say, "But he was so well educated!" and, "Wasn't it a pleasure to hear him speak!"

My mother told me never to speak ill of the dead, but I at least have to say that being dead does not change who William F. Buckley was. Truthfully, when I think of Buckley, I see only a wealthy, ostentatious, arrogant, pendantic dirtbag who didn't care a rat's ass that the people I worry the most about (the elderly poor), were and are being hurt by fascist policies like the ones he promoted. HIS belly was full, his bed well made, and he could have servants, while the elderly poor could/can barely pay for a roof over their heads, food and medication to survive.

No, frankly, I don't give a damn how many vocabulary words he had memorized. He was a dirtbag before and now he's a dirtbag that passed away. A man is what he says and does, and he was not a good man.

That is all I have to say.
