Entry: Big Brother in Brussels Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/big_brother_in_brussels#6792 Post contents: RE: "Burke, Kirk, and Scruton loathing racism." Fact is that Russell Kirk opposed the civil rights laws of the late 1950s and the 1960s (as did almost every Real conservative back the) He never publicly altered that stance. One has only to go back and read back issues of the old National Review from the late 1950s or 1960s, and read the comments of most of the writers THEN, to see that they opposed the unconstitutional usurpation of power by the federal government. An excellent volume of the develping law and changes in law regarding civil rights is the volume THE BURDEN OF BROWN by Raymond Wolters, who is professor at the Univ. of Delaware. All true conservatives should read it, and stop mouthing leftist platitudes about "racism" inherited from the left, as the noe-cons and some of this blog are wont to do. Sent at: 2008 10 07
