“He purged people who needed to be purged…”

“And brought in other people.”

Those were among the first words from the mouth of Pat Toomey, president of the Club for Growth, when asked tonight on the radio about William F. Buckley’s effect on the conservative movement. Out with Rothbard, Rand, and Robert Welch — in with neoconservatism and an ever-increasing welfare-warfare state. What a legacy!

Then Toomey told us how important it is for all of us to support “free-market conservative” Republicans who are running for Congress because, you know, if the Democrats should get in, why, they might increase the size of government. (And, of course, he gloated over the defeat of anti-war Republican Wayne Gilchrest.)
