Subject: RE: BS: Discussion 2: Dissent = intelligence??
And, Fred & Nicole, since you asked, I Googled....Now, it's been a LONG time since I've really read National Review, back in W.F. Buckley's glory days (which, speaking of Dissent, were essentially before his side started winning); and back then we had none of this Internet foolishness, sonny; BUT - here it is - National Review Online



(Hey, this Blueclickymaker works good. Thanks Max.)



Old NR used to be intelligent. Extremist of course; and intelligent. Lemme know if this online version is. I'm not gonna read it. Too risky. Might backslide. The recovering drunk should stay out of the bars.



George F. Will is a highly intelligent, albeit (therefore?) often infuriating, conservative commentator, btw. / He made his bones with Buckley & his magazine y'know. As did many other righties.
