. . . is William F. Buckley, Jr., as I discuss in my article on LRC today. Yellow “journalist” Jamie Kirchick, who is gay and who recently proposed a “gay brigade” to be sent to Afghanistan to kill Muslims, considers Buckley to be his hero, as do all good neocons in good standing. The little hypocrite Kirchick falsely accuses Ron Paul of being homophobic while ignoring his hero Buckley’s rather bizarre statements about gays. Like Buckley’s statement in the May 22, 1987 issue of National Review where he said: “Sixteen months ago . . . I suggested that perhaps AIDS carriers should be tattooed discretely, to protect uncontaminated sexual or needle partners. This proposal reminded everyone of Auschwitz, and I have seen in print, that Mr. Buckley ‘wants to tatoo all homosexuals.’”
In a September 21, 1984 National Review article entitled “Bring Back the Scarlett Letter,” Jamie Kirchick’s hero blamed the AIDS epidemic on supposed “cuts” in military spending that supposedly allowed faster growth of the welfare state, which in turn led to “permissiveness” in society and “rampant homosexuality” by gays who, according to Buckley have “no self-discipline.” Thus, Buckley indirectly proposed an expanded warfare state as a “cure” for the AIDS epidemic.
Jamie Kirchick’s hypocrisy is sickening. He’s the kind of person who would sell his own mother into slavery if it promoted the goal of endless warfare in the Middle East and elsewhere. He is also employed by the U.S. government as a propaganda mouthpiece for “Radio Free Europe.” This of course explains a lot about why he devotes so much time to libeling a man like Ron Paul.
