I asked myself the other day, 'Who else, on so many issues, has been so right so much of the time?' I couldn't think of anyone." === Sorry Buck - you lead a "movement" of elitism and pretense, of selfishness and greed (all in the name of freedom). You help bring us Reagan/Bush 1 and Bush 2. You died seeing your movement proven to at it's strongest - during those administrations - bankrupt the nation not once but twice. The conservative "movement" (just the old' boy's school of money and greed) brought us Nixon (Watergate), Reagan (Iran Contra), Bush 1 (Blood for Oil) and Bush 2 (well we all know how that has ended, a ruined economy and a war that even ol Buck had to speak out against). What a sad legacy to be the "father" of. As he was gasping for breath ---- he spent his last moments in an America destroyed by the "modern" conservative movement he helped bring about.
