Customer Reviews

If you need a definition of conservatism, start with Bill Buckley
In these days of "wannabe" conservatives, it is time to reflect back on what a real conservative truly is, how the movement started, where it has been, and where it is now. You will understand the true frustrations of conservatives today.

Just One of Thousands
As just one of thousands who met Mr.Buckley (five times) and got to talk with him it is a pleasure to have the DVD memorial to him. It is an overview of parts of his amazingly varied life that one hour was fine to see and due to the time of one hour was about two hours short of the three hours needed for even a slight in-depth listing of the man's accomplishments in a uniquely American life. One sniveling hour would not cover Firing Line excerpts alone! John C (Jerry) Lemon MD
