2. .


"William F. Buckley Jr., the erudite Ivy Leaguer and conservative herald who showered huge and scornful words on liberalism as he observed, abetted and cheered on the right's post-Second World War rise from the fringes to the White House, died Wednesday. He was 82.

"His assistant Linda Bridges said Buckley was found dead by his cook at his home in Stamford, Conn. The cause of death was unknown, but he had been ill with emphysema, she said.

3. an obituary
The committee to horsewhip William F Buckley is hereby disbanded, responsibility having shifted to a higher power.
--actually, that is how he reacted to the death of Ayn Rand.
