Omigosh. William Buckley ... hadn't thought about that guy in years. I used to see him on the talking head shows; haven't seen him in quite a while. Is he dead?
I'll tell ya ... I've just about lost track of the definitions of such things as "liberal" and "conservative". I don't think they mean what they used to mean, exactly. Some of the folks who were considered "conservatives" back in the 50s ... well, might not be classified as such now, merely on the basis of some of their remarks.
Me? I consider myself a "moderate" --- which I suppose means I'm somewhere in the middle and that's probably right ... er I mean correct. lol
Which of those labels do you think folks like Lincoln, Davis, Stanton, and Lee would fall under in today's terminology?
