He had emotions. When the woman he loved fucked up, he was going to take the fall for her. If mitt is anyone in that story, it is Tom. Gatsby loved to a fault.

you for calling attention to the parallel between Mitt and Tom. I actually think of Mitt as more like Milo Minderbinder (of Catch-22 fame). Mitt would definitely have paid the Germans to bomb us if it would produce profits for the Enterprise.

that I need to re-read Catch-22. I read it once three years ago, it was great. I love how at first you think Yossarian is crazy, but slowly realize he is the only sane one in the bunch. If you haven't read Closing Time, the sequel to 22, don't. I read it right afterwards. It is a severe let down. I even contemplated burning it, but I could never bring myself to burn a book. I gave it to the guy who let me borrow Catch-22- it is his burden now

Heller novel after C-22 is God Knows, a hilarious sendup of 1&2 Samuel, told in the voice of a David who is able to see far into the future (comparing hmself favorably with Shakespeare, among other, for poetic skills) and who is always having to curb the Napoleonic ambitions of one of his generals (whose name I forget - Joab?). Agree with you 100% about Closing Time.

Pretty much what Mittens and his puppet masters want.

For eight years, I kept that shirt on a lifesized cardboard version of President bush. Only after President Obama took office did I finally actually wear it myself.

but, not the good kind. He is the kind that loves dancing horses, but acts like it's something shameful. Goes to the salon to get his hair done, then messes it up so he doesn't look too feminine. The kind of guy who has his suits neatly pressed then balls them up to wrinkle them so he doesn't look to GQ, cause neatly pressed suits are too metrosexual. He is the kind of guy who knows what the color puce is, but pretends he doesn't. He is the kind of guy who would order cheesy grits to try to fit in. Mitt is the kind of guy who would go to a ball game any sport when it does nothing but cause him pain, just so he can look manly. He is the kind of guy who doesn't understand why people would wear a poncho to a Nascar event. Mitt is the kind of guy who would have his shoes shined and then scuff them up to make it look like he has been walking evne though he is driven everywhere and doesn't have to step out anywhere that might get his shoes scuffed. Mitt is the kind of guy who will pretend he doesn't know what a doughnut is to one crowd, but will joke about cops living on them. Mitt is the kind of guy that will talk macho, but will run at the first sign of any kind of confrontation, especially a verbal one. Especially a confrontation he will lose.
