Oh, good grief…
Here comes Vidal yelling to Jimmy Trimble, “I’m your top! I’m your top!” Capote is going to be sooo pissed.

Did they snap that picture while he was squeezing out a turd or did he always look like that?

Now I have a reason to go out to my favorite Joint and have a couple of beers to celebrate. Gore finally did every one service: he died. One can only hope that he will soon be forgotten.

@innominatus: Here is a line from Ann Coutler’s tribute to William F. Buckley Entitled: William F. Buckley: R.I.P., Enfant Terrible
**In a famous exchange with Gore Vidal in 1968, Vidal said to Buckley: “As far as I am concerned, the only crypto Nazi I can think of is yourself.”
Buckley replied: “Now listen, you queer. Stop calling me a crypto Nazi, or I’ll sock you in your goddamn face and you’ll stay plastered.”
Years later, in 1985, Buckley said of the incident: “We both acted irresponsibly. I’m not a Nazi, but he is, I suppose, a fag.”**
I’m with Muddjuice, I have no clue who this guy is. Perhaps he had more influence on urban types? Just guessing here.

There’s an overlong, to me, but very fitting “eulogy” to the bastard over at Commentary. Written by Norman Podhoretz, it addresses Vidal’s constant, shrill and strident anti-semitism and the lefties’ enthusiasm for denying it and defending him.

@innominatus that was a great exchange in that clip you posted. Gore Vidal made an assh*le of himself, one of many times. He should’ve known better than to f_ _k with Buckley.
Even in his younger days he always had that embalmable look. In later years it wore off, as he appeared taxidermied. Some reference material on the dead prick. http://conservapedia.com/Gore_vidal
Sideshow Bob – “You see, Bart, one doesn’t have to know how to read to enjoy the Springfieldian. Just look at all these amusing caricatures of Gore Vidal and Susan Sontag.”
Bart (weak laugh) – “Yeah, I guess they are kinda funny.”
Lisa – “The only friend I have is Gore Vidal. And even he’s kissed more boys than I ever will.”
Marge – “Girls, Lisa. Boys kiss girls.”

The world is a better place with this smug prick. Another hack of limited ability who acheived critical aclaim by bashing the country that gave him the opportunity to be successful. Interesting that he and his “partner” lived for years in italy until failing health drove them to move back to the USA with our oppressive health care system. How’s that unquenchable lake of fire working out for you?
