To which most of the nation just went, “What? That moron is still alive? And Bill Buckley’s dead?”. Any credibility this sad-excuse-for-a-human had is gone now.
And what about Mr. McCain? Disaster. Who started this rumor that he was a war hero? Where does that come from, aside from himself? About his suffering in the prison war camp?
Everyone knows he was a prisoner of war in North Vietnam. That’s what he tells us.
Too bad Buckley never got to plaster him.
