I need to mark this: Yesterday, William F. Buckley, Jr., one of the people I admired most in this world passed away. An important point for me about Buckley was this: Even many of his political adversaries, people who often hated his positions on issues, recount what a fine person he was and that they genuinely liked him and that he always treated them with dignity and respect.

As I've aged, I've come to understand just how uncommon and priceless that sort of thing is.

May he rest in peace.

I think that is very sad
