You obviously have no idea of who Gore Vidal is. He is the American man of letters and he is famously known for his wit. Killing someone off while watching TV means to turn the TV off. What you are trying to do is to distort reality to convey the misleading message that liberals such as Mr. Vidal are violent and terrorist minded. You are an American disgrace and it is a shame that you consider yourself an American.

Dear Michael Atlanta,

Your words "are not wasted here".

Your opinion is your right.

You obviously know nothing about American Heroism or you would have balanced your argument.

As for a 9-11 conspiracy, at least you have company with Van Jones.

Dear Robert Seattle,

I noticed you did not speak to the subject of this article – a left wing favorite – Gore Vidal.

So what do you think about Gore Vidal?

Rory, thanks for the trackback and for the background on Vidal - what an repellent little coward he is. Would you like to see Newsweek's and TIME's cover shrines to Obama? I think you do... http://trackacrat.com/newsweek-%E2%99%A1%E2%99%A1... http://trackacrat.com/time-magazine-%E2%99%A1%E2%... Be careful to shield your eyes, though, as looking directly at that much Obama was not a task meant for mere mortals.

Gore Vidal is a boil on the butt of literature, who can care what he says or even does.

Assassination may well be the only alternative if the ballot has been subverted and impeachment is blocked — as Franklin would have put it, these are the protections on the lives of leadership, and nothing more.

What is pathetic is the belief that the President is a ruler and not just the titular head and thus that problems can be solved by attacking the person.

As it stands, we are to the point where in the next step all the kings horses and all the kings men won't put Humpty Dumpty together again and we can all get back to just living our lives more cheaply in the wreckage of a wayward government that flushed its future.

Reconstruction shall provide at last some much needed education.

Perhaps ex-government 'workers' will swell the ranks of farmworkers or the other jobs 'Americans refuse to take.'

Advocating for the murder of anyone is unacceptable. I wish he had used the word impeached instead. If only for the fact that the U.S. Military first advocated in favor of faking an attack on our own soil in order to gain support for an invasion of Cuba in the early sixties, by flying a plane into an American landmark (ref. "Ultimate Sacrifice" by Lamar Waldron). The gulf of Tonkin incident was a complete myth used to lead 58,000 boys to their deaths in Viet Nam, admitted Robert McNamara in his own words in a video everyone should see("The Fog of War"). I have no doubt whatsoever that what we have been told about 9/11 is preposterous. But my words are probably wasted here. Go back to watching "Dancing With The Stars." It's what you are expected to do.

Dear Evan Washington,

This Gore Vidal style rhetoric was constant throughout the Bush Administration in one form or another. This is absolutely no surprise to those who follow politics.

One point, which show are you citing on CNN who gives relatively balanced coverage? The only one that comes close is Lou Dobbs and the leftists are trying to get him fired for rightfully asking the tough questions on illegal immigrants.

I can only wonder what the outrage would be if Gore Vidal or anyone said the same sick garbage about Obama as they did and continue to do about Bush.

I think everyone knows that answer. The outrage would be deafening and continuous without let up.

People and the news media should be outraged when anyone speaks as Gore Vidal did about ANY president.

Lastly, the left coast has to understand that THEY are out of step with most Americans who are conservative (not extremist). There is no way the majority of the American people are going to sit by, stay quiet, and let this country morph into a marxist/european-style socialist state. These far left radicals who hold up Chavez should disgust anyone concerned with keeping American a "Republic".

Randi Rhodes never suggested anyone kill Bush. She played a bit that compared him to Fredo from the Godfather. She even called the Secret Service to make sure she wasn't under investigation, they told her "no". Stop being so disingenuous with your gullible readers.

And, Evan, MSNBC doesn't brand itself "news" like Fox does, they call themselves "the place for politics." There is no masquerade on MSNBC's part. Fox calls itself news, but it is simply right-wing propaganda

it certainly was in poor taste. just need to qualify, i have very bad arthritis, so be not offended that i do not dot the i's and cross the t's. but isn't that along the same rhetoric that's happening now with those who bring guns to an event where the potus appears. we really need to respect the office the the potus, no matter who we are. but you can bet, there are those out there that will defend such bad behavior displayed by vidal and those nuts who disrespect this potus. there have been those that have been questioned for such.

that joy behar is a narrow minded ninny who only has a mind to think the way it was told. "we have the worst educated population in a 1st world country?" No doubt there. Another failure of government… HEY, that certainly lowers the "intelligence" level.
