Over at his excellent blog, Richard Brookhiser highlights an interview that Sam Tanenhaus, the editor of the Times book review and William F. Buckley Jr.’s biographer, recently gave to MSNBC:

HARWOOD: Well, Sam, I want to switch gears and get a little different perspective. I know you’ve got a book coming out in September, The Death of Conservatism, you know an awful lot about the patron saint of modern conservatism William F. Buckley. What do you suppose Bill Buckley would think of the nature of the arguments that are being made against the Obama health care plan right now, death panels and all the rest?
