Bouvard on Vance's Defensive Response to Buckley Questions

Tucker's brother Buckley seems to be the family id, not that there's so much distance between id and ego here. All this does make inquiries into the other Buckley, VP Vance's press secretary, relevant. The VP accused someone raising this question of scumbaggery, with argument

forcefully advanced by Vance defenders that it was "blood libel" to accuse a son of the sins of his father, without quite acknowledging there were any "sins" in the first place. Vance vaguely gestured toward "lies," without saying what they were or what the truth (about what?)

in fact was. All this remains very interesting, including what could justifiably be seen as Vance's panicked response. I think Scumbaggate is likely to come to the surface in some form at some point, if there are any the VP would recognize as a "journalist" willing and able

to formulate a penetrating, hard to evade, coherent question. I think I could do it, if anyone were to want to give it a try. Much could be unearthed here about Vance's thinking and commitments.
