Great, another 9/11 "truther," just what we need! "Renowned" by whom? He's right about Dear Leader being over his head, but wrong about everything else. "...first intellectual president we've had in many years..." I thought President Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar? Wasn't President George H.W. Bush Director of Central Intelligence, Ambassador to China, a Yalie, etc.? Doesn't President George W. Bush have a Harvard MBA? Wasn't President Carter a nuclear submarine officer? Those all sound pretty "intellectual" to me, but I guess I'm not a has-been ex-pat hack writer in France.

“he's the first intellectual president we've had in many years,” ROFLMAO.

If it's coming from Gore Vidal, loathsome, decadent, degenerate, treasonous, perfidious, America hating, homo commie scum then it's for sure that it's really, really true. Un huh. I believe him.

Renowned American historian Gore Vidal...

Renowned for his ignorance, why yes I believe he is.

BTW folks, please don't hate people who wish to destroy our nation.

That is just mean! /s

Hitler youth indeed... how about Hitler senior moments by Vidal... I guess that's okay. Fascism? Ok! Reverse racism? Ok! Disarming America? Why that's fantastic! The USA ceasing to be the world's leader? Wow, that would be stellar!

Vidal, you dumb ass clueless bastard, may God deprive you of seeing the end results of your dreams come true.

Evidently you can't fathom the result of a world dominated by a China/Russian cabal.

Think terrorism on a scale never seen before. Think people like you purged first, as the intellectuals are driven into camps to be reeducated. For all your professed knowledge base, you have learned absolutely nothing from history.

Purges:

Russia
China
Vietnam
Cambodia

Do you remember any of this?

What the hell do you think the end of our Republic will garner, if not the same results we have seen over and over again, when communist leadership dominates?

They should stop feeding you. The world is in such desperate shape, we should just save the resources. You want my nation to die, and there-by me, my family, and our fellow citizens to be dominated, reeducated, and subjugated to all manner of evil. And you call us Hitler-like.

“The intellectual”

Is this a replacement for “the senile,” or “the Communist?” I can’t be sure which is the correct one to use for Vidal...or was this Jimmy Carter in disguise.

Gore Vidal?? The same guy Norman mailer bitch-slapped about 40 years ago? And we’re supposed to care what this old commie queer says?

The intellectual once again called the 2000 election "stolen" by the Bush administration then added they were "probably" involved in the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on New York City and the Pentagon.

So which is it? Is he an intellectual, or did he say those things? Can you be an intellectual and a complete moron at the same time?

It's a pity because he's the first intellectual president we've had in many years

When a person goes through each day, day after day, and doesn't do a single smart thing, what is it about him that is intellectual?

What's Vidal's evidence of that? There are no college records, no Law Review articles, no ability to speak extemporaneously. The only thing we have to go on is the book which, as it turns out, Obama did not write. So in other words, we know zero about Zero's vaunted brilliance.

Gore is well past his research days. I do hope he keeps lookin’ for love over there with the Democrats though ~ by now he should have given half the party’s top dogs several different STDs.

“Intellectual?” Based on what...his ability to read?

“Hitler youth”
This old lefty `trousers-shark’ must be well into dementia, thinking of the Obama WH encouraging school children to sing devotionals to Dear Leader, like German children in the `30s. I don’t recall any of that fascist nonsense during the 8 years of the recent adult, late, great Republic.

“...the first intellectual president...”

What this means is that Obama is the first president we’ve had in a while that believes government knows all and can do all. Of course, Obama’s incompetence lies in his failure to use government to accomplish what his commie followers want, the complete collapse of American, imperialistic hegemony around the world and the destruction of capitalist, robber barons at home. In short, government can’t become the omniscient, omnipotent, absolute sovereign power dreamt of by the left as long as a trace of old America is still around. obama isn’t moving fast enough for this freak.

I love it when liberals call us “Hitler Youth,” the “Reichwing,” “Rethuglicans” and so forth. It makes us sound even more badass than we already are!

Ah, geez. Will someone give Mr. Vidal his meds and wheel him into the day room? Better check his diapers while you’re at it.

“He’s incompetent. He will be defeated for re-election. It’s a pity because he’s the first intellectual president we’ve had in many years ...”

And yet he fails to make the clear connection between pretentious intellectualism and practical incompetence. This is why “intellectuals” are better off spending their time teaching.

There’s an important error right at the beginning. Vidal is *not* a historian, but a “historical writer”. There is as much of a difference as between a medical doctor and an actor who plays a doctor on television.
