I Guess Honesty is Not the Best Policy
William F. Buckley Jr., a Obama supporter, "resigns" his column at National Review. I guess National Review want focus on empty smears instead of formulating ideas to support their failed ideology.

I don't know that Democrats can really get on their high horse. We haven't actually shown the love to Joe Lieberman (who endorsed McCain), and I wouldn't be surprised at all to learn that, like Buckley, he "has been blanketed with hate mail".

Yeah, did you read his whole blog about it on The Daily Beast? http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2008-10-14/sorry-dad-i-was-fired
So many great quotes in there...which to choose. Try this one:
Pretty vicious, unforgiving lot over there at NRO, aren't they? I was prepared not to like this guy, but I have to admit, I'm developing a soft spot for him.

Excuse me, but I believe you are referring to the *son* of WFB, jr., Christopher Buckley.
And tho I've never been a fan of WFB's beliefs, I always admired his intellect, and his willingness to debate based on sound thinking rather than just talking points.
Thanks for the post.
