there was a time when i was younger and i loved buying wasp clothes from brynmawr thrift and reading the washington post and being a very provocative liberal. i still read and watch as much conservative press as liberal. i identify much more strongly with liberal views yet i treasure knowing what the other side is all about. part of this practice undoubtly stems from w.f. buckley jr. and his program Firing Line. i guess here is a 'well played' send-off to an enemy i could respect.

i always like his crazy bug eyes most of all. he just wrote a book not too long ago defending joseph maccarthy. i enjoyed watching him and noam chomsky try unsuccessfully to even begin to have a discussion with such divergent ideological starting points about imperialism. skull n' bonez y'all!
