Gore Vidal - 9/11 Gore Vidal is a novelist, essayist, playwright, and provocateur whose career has spanned six decades, beginning in the years immediately following World War II and continuing into the early years of the twenty-first century. In addition to a major sequence of seven novels about American history, and such satirical novels as "Myra Breckinridge" and "Duluth," he has written dozens of television plays, film scripts, and even three mystery novels written under a pseudonym. He has also written well over a hundred essays, gathered in several volumes published between 1962 and 2001. Taken as a whole, this seemingly varied work has an uncanny unity, exhibiting a tone of easy familiarity with the world of politics and letters, an urbane wit, and a supreme self-confidence on the part of the writer. Vidal's lineage in American literature may be traced back to Henry James, the sophisticated American from the upper echelons of society who mingles with European sophisticates, and Mark Twain, the raw humorist and critic of American empire. - Jay Parini Poster Comment: Word.

That is an excellent clip. I really like Gore Vidal, and he does tell it like it is.
Yeah. Where were the fighter jets? Why the stand-down? Who ordered it?
Dick Cheney is my informed guess. Open to sugestions.
That's my understanding. Maybe the Weather Network Founder could sue him.
Not unless he has a wish to go 'duck' hunting with ol Dick any time soon.... even if the 'duck'ing is done on main street, Somewhere, USA. Or unless he possibly wishes to test the theory of gravity ala John John.
Cheney's got a gun...
