BUCKLEY AND DIVISIONS ON THE RIGHT: In light of all the recent internal conservative arguments over paleocons, neocons, foreign policy and the rest of it, it is interesting to read this interview with William F. Buckley, Jr. in Human Events. Buckley's latest book is a fictionalized account of some of the divisions in the early conservative movement. In this interview, he talks about the mainstream right's break with Robert Welch and the John Birch Society, Ayn Rand and the objectivists and Murray Rothbard, the libertarian economist who inspired the writers of LewRockwell.com - including Lew himself.
