He may have been conservative, but his column On Language, in the NYTimes was awesome!

Safire was an exceptionally brilliant gentleman. A great artisan of the English language. He was unique.

Though you may not agree with his politics, you must agree with his grammar: pick up "How Not to Write: The Essential Misrules of Grammar." It is certainly an enjoyable read.
RIP.

RIP. One of the last of the intellectual conservatives. An excellent writer, too.
