Objecting strongly …

 Two good friends, and a third guy - The Washington Post. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

In fairness, telling the story of two men who liked each other is difficult if you don’t like one of them. Schultz detests Buckley.
“ . . . a salesman’s eyes, as though Buckley were trying to sell something he knew you didn’t really want to buy.”
The Buckley I knew (only slightly) seemed pretty much as O'Rourke describes him: "… a mainmast of courtesy, an anchor of encouragement and a spinnaker of enthusiasm for whatever one had written."
