Entry: William F. Buckley Jr.-- R.I.P. Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/william_f_buckley_jr_rip#18500 Post contents: <<Did WFB back Bradford in the 1981 battle with the neocons over that educational post?>> Nominally. From what I remember reading, WFB signed the petition in support of Bradford for the chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities. But we have to remember: Reagan was pretty much "did in" only sixty nine days into his Presidency. William Bennett was appointed chairman of the NEH in November of 1981, after the assassination attempt. Sent at: 2008 11 22
