Gore Vidal: "We'll have a dictatorship...."

According to this article (click title), Gore Vidal is predicting that the US will have a dictatorship soon.

(excerpt from article) - Vidal has experienced with great intimacy: he was friends with JFK, fought in the war, his father Gene, an Olympic decathlete and aeronautics teacher, founded TWA among other airlines and had a relationship with Amelia Earhart. (Vidal first flew and landed a plane when he was 10.) He was a screenwriter for MGM in the dying days of the studio system, toyed with being a politician, he has written 24 novels and is hailed as one of the world’s greatest essayists.

In this recent interview, Vidal admits to originally supporting Obama instead of Hilary but, now regrets this decision saying that Obama is doing, "dreadfully."

Vidal goes on to discuss his disdain for the war on terror and how what Obama is doing in Afghanistan is a failure, just like everything else we've done in the Middle East.

He says that he doesn't like, "LIARS" and that, "Obama is not a liar!" ?!?!

Is he kidding me? He then makes some absurd remark about McCain, "We know the fool from Arizona [as he calls John McCain] is a liar. We never got the real story of how McCain crashed his plane [in 1967 near Hanoi, North Vietnam] and was held captive.”

A man serves his country and is held captive and you are going to insult him that way? Really? Where were you when John Kerry was telling his tales of woe during the election, when he spoke of Viet Nam?

He continues to go into the very tired and boring old, "Republicans are evil," "They're fascists!" and, "like Hitler." Oh, my...how original Mr. Vidal!

Even better, he criticizes Obama for failing at being able to pass health care reform.

I didn't know much about this man at all before I read this article. As the man's story unfolded and his view and opinions became more apparent, I realized the man was absolutely off his rocker!

He says, "...America has “no intellectual class” and is “rotting away at a funereal pace. We’ll have a military dictatorship fairly soon, on the basis that nobody else can hold everything together. Obama would have been better off focusing on educating the American people. His problem is being over-educated. He doesn’t realise how dim-witted and ignorant his audience is. Benjamin Franklin said that the system would fail because of the corruption of the people and that happened under Bush.”

Oh, yes, it wouldn't be fun for a liberal to talk about politics if they couldn't throw Bush under the bus. He only further proves what a classic psycho he is by claiming of Timothy McVeigh, the man that blew up the Alfred P. Murrah Building in Oklahoma City in 1995 killing 168 people, “He was a true patriot, a Constitution man."

Wow. So, it makes you wonder a few things...how does a man like this live his life all these years and not have the slightest clue what reality is and, if Obama can't please a man that is this far left on the spectrum, what hope is there for his change? Obama should just give it up already! Seriously.
