 Governor Sanford Issues Statement on Death of William F. Buckley web posted February 28, 2008 COLUMBIA – February 27, 2008 -Governor Mark Sanford issued the following statement Wednesday on the death of William F. Buckley. "With the death of William F. Buckley, our nation has lost a brilliant writer and intellect, a patriot, and a good man. When Bill started the National Review in 1955, the conservative movement was seen by many as little more than a fad. Bill used his talent for words to wage a lifelong battle to advance conservative ideas that have proven themselves to make a difference in people's lives and societies at large," Gov. Sanford said. "The persistence of Bill and others like him ultimately led to the election of Ronald Reagan, and to making the conservative movement what it is today -- and for that our nation owes him a profound debt of gratitude. Jefferson and the founding fathers indeed founded this nation on the notion of limited government, and said at that time that eternal vigilance was the price of liberty. In the modern era of the conservative movement Bill was a leader among those who carried liberty's torch forward - and for this reason I'd ask for others in South Carolina to join me, Jenny and our four boys in offering the Buckley family our thoughts and prayers." ©
