Stand by any opinion you choose, no matter how ludicrous.
Any issue of National Review during the tenures of Buckley/Editor and Rusher/Publisher,
would affirm their mutual dedication to Principled Conservatism and utter rejection of
sanctimonious politics, the yip-yap of all self-labeled 'leaders'.
As for the Principled Conservatism of Locke & Burke, it was the legacy of our Southern
Agrarian & Rural Democrats, among them Founders Jefferson, Madison & Monroe.
The Republican Party, not yet in existence for another 80 years, had absolutely nothing
to do with this as the GOP was birthed by Fremont in 1856, promoting strong centralized government, aggressive trade protectionism and judicial activism, the Republican heritage throughout their political ascendancy from Lincoln till Hover in 1932.

You are talking to someone who took NR from the early 70's until WFB passed.
