does anyone know who the impersonator was at the begining of the video?

10 reasons, huh? Just give us five, please.

Actually, I do have the right...and frankly, you're quite difficult to take seriously after such a glaring display of grammatical ineptitude.

@closer71 Nice story but you dont get to just make shit up and pretend that its true. If you try to pretend that some imaginary being created everything, you have to explain that entities existence. You cant get away from that.

@searcherboy Excellent post, and well said. He is all of those things.
-
Are you saying that there is something wrong with being a proud American?
Do you live here?

What is the harpsichord piece in the background?

Buckley: a snide trust-fund brat who worked all his life to preserve the advantages, privileges and prejudices of people just like himself.
Take away his weird prep-school syntax, his supercilious, gentlemanly condescension, his blinkered religious faith, the harpsichord soundtrack, and what to you have?
A knee-jerk America-first windbag.
Buckley did one thing right - he kept the crazies out of the conservative movement. Now they run the show and sneer at elitists like Buckley.

All you half-wits demanding to know "what created God" miss the point entirely (as usual). GOD--by definition, you mindless knaves--simply IS. He exists outside, or separate from space and time, matter and energy, science, whatever. THAT is the point; the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end. Here is wisdom: Your tiny dew drop of intellect cannot possibly comprehend the nature of God and you'd do well to acknowledge this fact before your death. This one is not the real life...

I'm going to go ahead and ignore this debate that's going nowhere, and say that while I fall on the liberal side of the political spectrum (though by no means radically), I think Buckley was one of the greats. He was a gentleman, and I think that regardless of whether one is in agreement with him or not, he added much to the quality of the debate.

WFB a terrible debater? How could he have a show like FIring Line for as long as he did by being a terrible debater. I think you need to take into account that many of his guests were truly unprepared to defend their positons and WFB was a master at showing that.
