somehow buckley carlson, actually called buckley, the brother of tucker, tucker and buckley, now weighs weighs in. he must have been blind or something. it makes you think tucker carlson was proud of his putdown, that he bcc'd his brother. but whatever. he mistakenly went into the chain, and this is apparently how tucker and buckley communicate on their island. great response. whiney little self-righteous expletive. ironic name, too. you just know she has extreme expletive fright. no chance of this girl ever having an expletive necklace. more like expletive face. you can see the uncensured version of that online if you want. why would you. buzz feed asked tucker carlson for a comment and he responded, i just talked to my brother about his response and he assures me he meant it in the nicest possible way. >>> an article was posted that immediately provoked a massive amount of backlash. >>> an article was posted that immediately provoked a massive amount of backlash. it's a, let's say unusual take on what many people see as a positive and long overdue trend. the current success of tv show

louis xavier university in ohio comes to work with bill buckley and that's the end of the journey.he does other things, but he had to be released from his bowels when he decided to become a journalist instead. but one doesn't have the sense from his memoirs, and he's written two memoirs, written a lot about his own journey that he was summoned to seeking out come as a journalist he did, as a journalist sought out wide and diverse experience but not necessarily as a religious man. it's interesting, neuhaus got there early. you can suggest in the book he had almost an intuitive sense for where the cultural and political action was. >> he could sniff out the action of a getaway to get the. one of his early phrases that he kind of obsessed about i think in his early writings he could quote and market the metaphors that shape the public conscious. cleared he wanted to be one of these guys by the complaint but everyone else who could do the. usability was identified in any given moment, let's say the antiwar movement -- >> anti-vietnam war movement spent he looked around and thought to h

buckley is fine compared to what we have got with citizens united. as you know there are 15 holdings but i basically agree with the decision and there's a lot going on in that opinion but compared to what we have seen in citizens united. >> it was not the first case to hold corporations have first amendment rights. >> i will cut the conversation short. >> i apologize if we were not able to get as many questions from the audience but i think you will agree it was worth it.

this is a young william f buckley junior, mccarthy of course, and barry goldwater who carries that ideanobody pays attention to them until eisenhower sends the troops to little rock. when he does that for the first time since reconstruction we have once again the language emerging that the american government is using white tax dollars to help lazy african-americans. betsy will continue through the 1960's when the kennedy -- that theme will continue through the 1960's when the kennedy brothers integrate the university of mississippi. 1970, we have the rise of the southern strategy in the republican party. people think this is from the reconstruction era, it is dedicated in 1970, spiro agnew dedicates it. nixon was supposed to be there but he had trouble with a little something called can't state that weekend. this is another picture, it is from a private collection, it says this is klan country, love it or leave it, fight communism and integration. this theme of african-american activism and helping them being communism has carried to the present. we have reagan's welfare queen. and we

buckley versus vallejo is decided. the supreme court for the first time strike some limits on campaign spending. take it for granted campaign spending and the last 40 years we had this fight about whether congress can pass what congress considers anti-corruption laws. the court, in the last ten years. and campaign spending is not anti-corruption laws, limit tongue corporate spending by not anti-corruption laws and in some cases not anti-corruption laws, and justice kennedy and robert s. there's not only one thing that is corrupt and that is quid pro quo fairly explicit bribery. the houses on fire in terms of our democracy. there are a lot of different ways to respond to this. my response in this book is to say both as the letter to the court and as a letter to ourselves that fighting corruption is one of the best parts of the american tradition and we should know in that and not just think of as opposed watergate fight but as the post war of independence and one of the most difficult fights we will ever be involved in.

buckley once caught the spirit of that when he talked about his preference for being governed by the first 800 names in the boston telephone directory rather than being governed by a harvard faculty. what he was recognizing is on not range of morally important issues in our culture in our time, if you ask 800 people in the boston phone book or the trend to new jersey phone book or the lynchburg va phone book for their opinion about abortion, marriage, affirmative-action, capital punishment, you name it you will get an answer very different from the answer you would get if you asked 800 people from a major professional association or university professors. that is the division we have in the country culturally. >> host: what are your callers of a decent society? >> guest: respect for the person and his fundamental dignity. in a decent society human beings, persons individuals will not be regarded as means to larger ends social ends going beyond the person. they will not be cogs in a collectivist wheel. but rather will be ends for which other things including the great institutions of

buckley once caught the spirit of that talking about his preference been governed by the first 800 names with the boston in telephone directory. what he was the institution based on the marital that gives people the fundamental care and nurturing and education at least until they reach maturity the first years of their lives. create go astray when a substitute operations for the family. in my view it is department of welfare it does better than any can-do but that fundamental job to each new generation the character in the interest to date to be could citizens and all other institutions of the political system depend on there being a fairly large number of people that our hard working lot because they fear for but they need managers who are responsible. but they cannot produce such people. but then with honest employees with kids is services. and a the family. intend to depend on those people doing the right thing to the fear detection but it is the right thing to do. president bush cannot issue any dicta said there would be virtuous people but the supreme court cannot handle and a rulin

the association of state democratic chairs you should ray buckley's leadership conducted a survey of its membership and each of the campaign committees all contributed research and information to this task force and we will continue to work together. the work has reached into all 50 states to look at what it takes to build, run, and win political campaigns in america but the bottom line of what we food to do is educate people who are not in this room -- voters donor community leaders and activists and we need to do it through every channel possible from voter registration to candidate recruitment and training. as the dnc, it is our responsibility to be the vehicle which enables our candidates and party committees to take our values, our believes to voters. while the task force has been talking about strengthening our party in the long term, the dnc has been talking about making the switch from the 2014 to the 2016 election cycle when we will elect a democrat as the 45th president of the united states of america. [ applause ] here's a few things we've been up to. in 2014, the dnc tech

our group -- bill schneider worked for senator buckley and george will worked for senator alan in colorado. and i worked for kissinger. we used to play poker regularly we were good social friends. we worked together because these were all players on the hill. fighting to end war amendments, getting trident through and so it was an initial -- an interesting time with interesting people. everybody is still involved one way or another. >> [indiscernible] john lehman: all of us were concerned about the agreement that provided -- it had codified a disparate balance they gave the soviets and numerical advantage, they could be transmitted into political leverage. kissinger knew of my views on it , and that is why he asked me to negotiate with jackson ideal to get jackson support. that gave him plausible deniability. but everything i did with regard to offer an counteroffer, i cleared with henry because they wanted to get scoop to support it and, at the very least, not to block it. >> [indiscernible] john lehman: the deal involved the trident, the cruise missile the commitment to go forward with t

. >> william f buckley's famous quote, a conservative is somebody who runs in yelling stop.doesn't seem to fit the definition of a conserve tear yen. >> the way to fix the right and the way for the right to renew itself are principals that exist in american society. federalism is at the heart of the book and when it comes to conservatives -- the drug war is unconstitutional. it involves a huge program and they spend $50 billion a year and it could be a free choice. my arangement is if you look at conservative attitudes toward guns and drugs they are completely incompatible. i don't believe the conservatives need to abandon principals to recognize that. >> i was going to bring up the chapter on federalism and i enjoyed it which is the first time i have ever said that. you talk about how republican party needs to be better. it has been portrayed as a state's rights in giving our country's history is not always a good day to describe something. >> no and there is a civil rights. there are police powers and whatever you want to call it. there is a role and nobody wants to go bac

there was no quote in the fourth century but politically it was changed from writing for bill buckley by the civil rights movement and the vietnam war and a lot of people were changed by those events. [applause] i go back many years when you and i started out at the national catholic reporter. when you were the conservative voice he was a conservative and you are a liberal. i would like to ask you to you disappointed in the justifiably angry that the catholic church isn't a pacifist church, never been a pope who tells them don't come in the military, they now supply chaplains and ordered them as the biggest rotc program in the country do you think it will ever happen not to catholic church will be a pacifist church as the quakers i would love to hear your thoughts. >> people here that question. all reasonable people should be pacifist. he said no more war. many have said no more war. they are now saying no holy war ever but that doesn't get back down to the actual performance and for good reason. they led the crusade. they used them in horrible ways. and it's all of the trappings of t

but if you come from a mindset and bill buckley had a great line about this. he said libertarians want to privatize and he thought that was crazy. but he said the great thing about our country that is debating whether to privatize lighthouses isn't were to socialize. and so i think that the point you make in the book over and over is a very valid one. we are constantly in this hyper paranoid state about safety and health, treating our bodies like temples. ending this in regulating that. and then somehow it has just pointed these immunities. it's a very strange thing and a very good point that you make. >> lot of things get turned upside down. that is just one of them. all of a sudden that is thrown out the window. >> so when you talk to audiences and you make that point that is the question that i was getting at. as a conservative with strong libertarian leanings my energies about saying that other stuff is ridiculous. that obamacare is getting deeper into our lives. you make this point about how obamacare does this but it excludes marijuana. what is wrong wit

we're not going to ban sugar, but if you come to a mindset bill buckley have a great line a great lineabout privatizing the white house. he said, look, libertarians want to privatize the white house. he said, the great thing about a country that is debating whether or not to permit does the white house is not going to socialize medicine. define the boundaries of reasonable discourse. a very valid. we are constantly in this incredibly hyper paranoid state about safety and health banning this in regulating that. it's a very good.that you make. abcatoo a lot of things get turned upside down, a lot of things. and that is just, all of a sudden it is thrown out the window. when you talk to audiences and make that point that., that is the question i was getting at about the audience for this. as a conservative strong libertarian leanings hit me. obama care, and you make this.about how obama care does that undisclosed marijuana. all the other stuff what is wrong with getting rid of the nanny's getting stuff all around? one of the costs of that is making my order one of the things that people d

buckley once said but the costs become prohibitive and i believe in insisting on the ideal deal in ald where things constantly change and realities change, is something that for which the cost would be proceed prohibitive and those costs would be a lost opportunity to put an end to the iran nuclear program. i would like to introduce david price of north carolina. >> thank you john. good morning. members here individually made our decisions about attending the speech but what we're united in is our determination to learn from this controversy, the controversy that surrounded the speech and to move on to reinforce the u.s.-israel, a secure relationship and protect the world from a nuclear armed iran. speaker boehner should never have extended this invitation at this time given the proximity of the speech to the israel national elections and delicate international negotiations which the prime minister clearly wishes to up end are hanging in the balance at this moment. and prime minister netanyahu should not have accepted this invitation which was extended without the usual consultation

that's jamila buckley. a lot of people will talk to me in person and won't come on camera.me on camera. people are still upset and think people should have the right to profession but most of the people who live here they just want their neighborhood back brooke. >> we need more jamilas. thank her for me as well. this has made her become a role model and wants her neighborhood back. thank you so much don and to jamila as well. the other part is the search for the gunman. david katz is ceo of global security group and from the drug enforcement agency formerly and my first question to you being, okay so in order to find the shooter, or shooters of these two police officer, we know they're looking at shell casings from the crime scene. we know they're talking to eyewitnesses but beyond that what else do they do? the forensics are most important, find out exactly -- we were discussing off air. first a rifle and now a handgun and get the facts straight, what type of weapon was used then of course eyewitness accounts that apparently they know where the rounds were fired from so d

it is needed on the watch and by 1970 and was able to relax buckley to the united states senate. i would argue nothing remained a liberal and activist in the research and government capacities and more obligation to bring about social justice to the end of his life. being a practical politician who hope to extend his tenure in office he was rather skillful in moving with the times and the fact that the people of new york to him four times in the fourth time by the biggest projects with just that they are perfectly comfortable with where he was. >> do you see moving to the right place >> probably so. had he become president, i think he would've been a terrific president. the law decide and the magnificent box sets it all out and it's a fascinating saga and i recommend it to you. >> something henry kissinger said one that essentially created henry kissinger for better or worse, that he said nelson rockefeller was a great reader of men. [inaudible] everything was fast. he could get excited about a tuna fish sandwich. he was the best you've ever had. some of that was communicated. qu

buckley supported a public service for--young people who are 18. i think when you're part of the risk, you're gonna be part of the solution. our founding fathers did not want a professional army. they were very explicit about this. they called it-- we did not want a standing army. and the moment we get awe and a tiny number of people go to fight when they shouldn't be sent to fight because "they're a professional army" doing their job--the moment we have that awe, we surrender to that kind of militarization of our foreign policy. and having been in the army, i can assure you that when you're in the army, navy, air force, or marines, you don't have awe of those people when you get out, because you know too much. >> second question, what are the most important questions you would ask the presidential candidates in the next debate? >> how will you shift power from the few to the many in ways that make it very easy for people to band together as consumers, as workers into democratic trade unions, as small taxpayer groups, and as communities who are bei

who's titles i enjoy listing our vice chair and the chair of the new hampshire democratic party, ray buckley. he's also a leader of leaders. we have a special aeedition this morning. i want to give tremendous mangthanks for his time and dedication. governor steve brashir of the great state of kentucky has joined us as well. thank you so much. i appreciate that acknowledgement of them and the round of applause you have given them. i know that everyone is excited as i am about last week's announcement that our 2016 democratic national convention will be in the beautiful city of philadelphia. the city of brotherly love and sisterly affection. this says briefly, but since he was filled in addition to donna and other maybe it wasn't so briefly. we heard from him yesterday briefly. i've asked him to take some time today at our meeting to tell us and give a bit of a glimpse of what we have to look forward to with philly 2016 as we move in that direction. since being elected mayor in 2008 he's managed city government through the worst recession since the great depression by maintaining core services

the first is that as president ghani clearly indicated to me but he has said this a buckley -- publicly, he wants us there. we have a willing partner. we have a bilateral -- bilateral security agreement that we did not have in iraq. the second thing is we have a partner in president ghani and you mentioned dr. of dula -- dr. abdudllah, they are working together and i saw both of them together and i watched the relationship and they have agreed to work together in a multi-sectarian way which is exactly what did not happen in iraq. the devolution to sectarianism. that is what led to the opportunity that the cruel force of isil led to the situation we are now in. now we have an opportunity and i rocked to get cemented. >> there is a terrorist network that stretches from afghanistan to of jury a and we have to keep treasure on it -- pressure on it. afghanistan is and will remain an anchor point. senator blumenthal. senator blumenthal: i want to she -- switch to an area were you have mistreated a lot of caring. to your command where men have -- who have served under you and afterward, when t

buckley once said, but when it approaches relatey, the cost are prohibitive. insisting on the ideal deal in a real world where things constantly change and reality changes, the costs would be prohibitive and that would be lost opportunity to put an end to iran's nuclear program. and with that, i would like to interviews david price of north carolina. >> thank you, john, and good morning. as john said, the members here individually made our decisions about attending the speech. but what we're united in is our determination to learn from this controversy, the controversy that surrounded the speech and to move on to reinforce the u.s.israel security relationship and protect the world against nuclear-armed iran. speaker boehner should have never extended this invitation at this time given the proximity to israel's national elections and delicate international negotiations which the prime minister clearly wants to upend are hanging in the balance at this moment. and prime minister netanyahu shouldn't have accepted this which was extended by the house majority. for

buckley caulk the spirit when he talked about his preference for being governed by the first 800 names in the boston telephone director rather than being governed by the harvard faculty. he was recognizing on a range of morally important issues in our culture then and now if you ask 800 people in the boston phonebook or the trentup, new jersey, phone book, or the lynchburg, virginia, phone burk, for their opinion about abortion marriage affirmative action capital punish; you're going to get an answer very different from the answer you get if you asked 800 people from a major professional association. or the journalistic establishment, or university professors. that's the division that we have in the country culturally. >> host: what are your three pillars of a decent society? >> guest: they are respect for the person and his fundamental dignity. in a decent society, human beings persons, individuals will not be regarded as means to larger ends social ends, going beyond the person. they will not be cogs in a collectivist wheel, but rather will be the ends for which other things, includi

idealism is fine as william f buckley once said, but as it approaches reality, the costs become prohibitive. i believe that insisting on the "ideal deal" in a real world where things can't only change is something -- where realities change. the cost would be a lost opportunity to put an end to iran's nuclear program. with that, i would like to introduce david price of north carolina. >> thank you john, and could morning. -- and good morning. we each made our own decision in attending the speech, but we are united in learning from this controversy in the speech and to move on to reinforce the u.s. is 's role to protect against a nuclear armed iran. speaker weiner should have never extended this invitation at this time, given the proximity of this speech to israel's national elections, and the fact that delicate international negotiations, which the prime minister really wishes to append, or hanging in the allen's -- hanging in the balance. prime minister netanyahu should not have excited this invitation which was extended without bipartisan leadership or consultation with the president. for

buckley working at the u.s. embassy in beirut is kidnapped and later murdered. april of 1984, hezbollah attacks an air force base in spain. the bombing kills 18 u.s. service members and injuries 83. hezbollah terrorists hijack a kuwait airplane. i don't see how this administration would be able to classify tcha hijacking and murders as workplace violence but you never know. february of 198 , hezbollah publicizes its manifesto and notes that the group's struggle will continue until israel is destroyed and rejects any ceasefire or peace treaty with israel. the document attacks the u.s. and france. june, 198 hezbollah terrorists attack t.w.a. flight 847, the hijackers severely beat a passenger a u.s. navy diver before killing him and dumping his body onto the tarmac at the beirut airport. other passengers are held hostages before being released on june 30. i'm hoping mr. speaker, that many americans will remember these events and know how strongly we felt about the terrorism being carried out by hezbollah that this administration would like to call a peace-seeking

how will mcmillan -- harold mcmillan said on william buckley, "firing line," 1982, he was former prime minister, he said iran-iraq war is good for western economy. they destroyed the economy and we rebuild it. host: michael in ohio. lots of discussion carrying over on the iran nuclear deal. as we noted, that deal timeline set for tomorrow at midnight for the deal to be reached in those negotiations that are going on. let's go to reverend jackson waiting in philadelphia, pennsylvania. client for republicans. caller: good morning. how's everybody doing? host: wonderful. caller: i just want to ask you a couple of questions. what is the government actually doing, the united states doing every day to try to deal with the problem in the middle east? i know as an ordained minister that a lot of these problems are circulating because of religion. what was america doing every day to try and solve these problems? guest: in terms of specific religious conflicts? host: are you talking military action? on what level, reverend jackson? caller: both, military and religious. host: big question. guest:
