This morning's Boston Globe has a great piece on William F. Buckley, Jr., who passed away yesterday at age 82. You might have disagreed with his politics, but you had to admire his wit and his way with words. He once said of Big Government, "one must bear in mind that the expansion of federal activity is a form of eating for politicians." Buckley's debating prowess was unmatched, making today's presidential "debates" (the term is used loosely) seem nothing more than sandbox antics. The man will be missed.
