Great man, great writer. Check out "Creation" one of my favorite books ever.

I'm curious... what does Mr. Vidal think of things now that Obama has been elected?

Vidal is a modern day Socrates.

Well said, Mr. Vidal.

I don't like Bush, but he is an easy scapegoat and you should look deeper. The Iraq Liberation Act which called for and legitimised the Iraq war was signed by Clinton in 1998. The political elite of both parties had already decided to "regime change" Iraq well before G W was president.

What a phenomenal piece of humanity that this man represents. It makes a little bit more proud to be a human.

I think I missed the part of Vidal that is non-partisan. Thank goodness he was honest about the degeneration of The New York Times and the loss of journalistic objectivity in the News, as a whole. That much was unbiased. Yet, he then fails to define the original definition of "liberal" correctly & that was disingenuous of him. But, strangely enough, he did manage to debunk the usefulness of Political Correctness, despite having built his career upon it.
