Did anyone see Gore Vidal on Buchanan & Press.

Whew, he went up against Susan Molinari saying, paraphrasing here:

Bush is very unpopular through all of Europe, but if he says the right things he will be helped by the visit. Since the Iraq war has gone badly he can only go up. Blair is beyond help for lying to the House of commons, which is not acceptable in England like in the USA where lying to congress is considered brilliant.

Susan criticized him for saying bad things about an elected President so Vidal said that was Bush selected by the Supreme Court. The was chicanery in the ballots where there is evidence that votes had been changed after the fact. Says bush not fit for the job. Talks about how to keep country from falling into the hands of people who invent patriot acts.

He said we need a new constitutional convention now to restore the Bill of Rights and all the articles of the Constitution that are being destroyed.

Then they cut him off. Christopher Hitchens is on now.
