speaking ill of the dead?

Someone said one should not speak ill of the dead. Presumably that admonition does not apply when it is the truth one speaks.

William F. Buckley was a cheap, hypocritical bastard: he expressly disinherited an undisputed grandson his son Christopher sired out of wedlock. As one commentator on the page I'm linking to asked: "would WFB have preferred that his son's paramour had aborted the child?"

NOT ONE 'BUCK'LEY FOR YOU! WILL'S WILL: GRANDSON, 8, DEAD TO ME



Ah the "rich" - giving the rich, and Catholics, a bad name every chance they get. "Rest in peace" or "good riddance"? You decide.
