Time to Tear Down These Schools

Sacramento I love the Houston Chronicle story about the modest suburban Texas grocery store that defeated the Soviet Union and ended the Cold War. Seriously, any museum that commemorates the fall of communism needs to have photos on the wall of Ronald Reagan, Lech Walesa, Pope John Paul II, and the former Randall’s store in the Clear Lake section of Houston. In 1989, two years before the collapse of the Evil Empire, Boris Yeltsin had been elected to the Supreme Soviet and the parliament. During a visit to Johnson Space Center, he took a short detour to see a typical

Franklin D. Roosevelt called it “a date which will live in infamy.” Today, more than three quarters of a century later, there is another reason for remembering Pearl Harbor: It evoked a response that kept much of the civilized world from falling into a new dark age of totalitarian tyranny. On the bright, clear morning of Dec. 7, 1941, Japanese fighters, bombers, and torpedo planes all but wiped out the U.S. Pacific fleet contingent of eight battleships (sinking four and damaging the four others). Two thousand four hundred and three Americans died in the attack. Unprovoked and unexpected, Japan delivered

On Losing Two Friends From Yale Law

Submitted 6 years ago by ActRight Community

An ashen day in many ways. There are fires burning all around our bone dry Southern California. Thank God, there are none near our house in Beverly Hills, but the sky is an ominous grey color. It looks as if something terrible is about to happen, and sure enough, it did. When I went to open my email, there was a message saying that two men I loved, Bob Spearman and Richard “Dick” Balzer, in my class of 1970 at Yale Law School, were dead. I felt as if I had been slugged on the back of my neck with

Bill Buckley asked me for a vocabulary word once. I’d been at National Review for only a few weeks, and he had a few of us over for what turned out to be the last of the editors’ dinners at his home, which for some reason always is described as a “maisonette,” probably as a way for writers to communicate that they know what “maisonette” means. Bill was charming and funny and full of stories (it isn’t always a tragedy to meet one’s heroes), and at one point he mentioned that the prose style of a certain writer seemed to him . . . and here he turned to me and asked: “What’s the word? Like it’s engraved in stone?” “Lapidary?” “Yes. Lapidary ...
