7. The Realist was one of the books of the Bible for me during the '60s.
I smile now just thinking about it. Ah, what memories. Mmm. Good times.

3. Vonnegut - "George Bush is a hot fudge sundae".
Hahahaha. Somehow he can pull off such a strange description. My impression was that he meant George Bush is just there to draw our attention away from the really bad people with true power like Rumsfeld.

5. Best line so far...
