Vonnegut takes an easy chair across from Prof. Manuel Luis Martinez, a poet and teacher of writing.
He grabs Martinez and semi-whispers into his ear (and the mike) “What can I say here?”
Martinez urges candor.
“Well,” says Vonnegut, “I just want to say that George W. Bush is the syphilis president.”
The students seem to agree.
“The only difference between Bush and Hitler,” Vonnegut adds, “is that Hitler was elected.”
“You all know, of course, that the election was stolen. Right here.”
You know I wish I could turn a phrase as effectively as Mr. Vonnegut.
He better be careful. He might get added to a list!
The "syphilis president". That is just golden, isn't it?
Vonnegut just rocks doesn't he??? Still....
