For those of us who had hoped that the Obama administration would present us with a rebirth of the old republic that was so rudely erased a few years ago by that team of judicial wreckers, Bush and Gonzales, which led, in turn, to a recent incident in Cambridge, Mass. that inspired a degree of alarm in many Americans. But what was most alarming was the plain fact that neither the president nor a “stupid” local policeman seemed to understand the rules of behavior in a new America, where we find ourselves marooned as well as guarded (is that the verb?) by armed police who have been instructed that they are indeed, once armed, the law and may not be criticized verbally or in any other way and are certainly not subject to any restrictions as to whom they arrest or otherwise torment.
This is rather worse than anyone might have predicted, even though the signs have been clear for some years that ours is now a proto-fascist nation

i tried reading the entire article...it’s incoherent babbling.
He was pretty incoherent when he argued with Bill Buckley, and that was over 40 years ago.
I believe Vidal is pickled in Scotch. Might be some other booze.
People like this did obviously listen to what Obama was saying during the campaign.

ROFLMAO! Ol gore has gone round the bend. I mean, this is pathetic thinking. Poor baby...perhaps it IS TIME for the euthanasia counseling in uhbama’s health care plan and gore vidal can be the first test case.
Vidal needs “end of life counseling’ , obviously!
Isn’t he Pinch Sulzberger’s tennis partner?
The Bunking Queen.
I wonder which the family considers the greater shame.
What I get from the “article” is that some time during the forties some random cop said something rude to Vidal (and he was somebody, he knew the mayor damn it!). Vidal has been bitter about the incident down to this very day.

Vidal is what I consider the archtype lib “artist” who doesn’t know is you-know-what from a hole in the ground about reality. Vidal at one time had writing talent. That is he had the ability to use words better than the average American and put it on paper. I’ve read several of his books, and “Julian the Apostate” was very entertaining. However whenever he publicly opened his pie-hole to say something about politics or anything else that didn’t simply physically describe something, he’s always sounded like the nut he is. Vidal is still bitter about being turned down as a political entity decades ago due to his homosexuality. He’s never gotten over it.
“Maybe there is a case for euthanasia....”
Jeez, I thought this guy was dead already!
