Gore Vidal
Matthew Romano Oh please people, he's aging by the seconds...give the guy a break. Plus, if you've read any of his memoirs or novels, you would know his views on sex.
Sharad Ghai For anyone to claim a 13 year old cant be pimped into having sex by an adult, clearly must be living in La La-land!
Tom Wheeldon I do love gore vidal's very insightful novels and essays written earlier on in his life, but I agree that many of his recent comments have been outrageous and just wrong, like his advocacy of timothy mcveigh and comments about the 13 year old girl Polanski raped: here in London we're bemused that people actually put up a argument in favour of Polanski and what he did
Reg Henderson I really think Gore Vidal's agent and family should try to take some control and prevent the poor old senile man from making insane comments that could be mistconstrued as him believing that 13 year old children ask for it when 43-year-old men drug them up and rape them. Please, get him in an institution where he can be taken care of and protected from himself.

Brian 13 yr olds can't be hookers?

Wow, I had to become a fan but I will be taking that off really quickly after I say to you Mr. Vidal that you are a sick piece of shit who deserves a slow, painful death of prostate cancer. Calling a 13 yr old girl who was raped a 'hooker'? I hope that Polanski gets sent to prison where he can be raped and treated lik...e the bitch he is. Go look at a clock Mr. Vidal! It's the perfect time of day to GO FUCK YOURSELF.Read More

You called a 13 year old raped by your buddy Polanski 'a 13 year old hooker' and defended a rapist who drugged and sodomized a child. You may be talented but youre also a grade 'A' douche bag. Youre just another self entitled prick that thinks that the laws dont apply to you and yours. If that was my kid youd be writin...g a eulogy. Unfortunatley a lot of folks in this world ARE whores. These are the folks that forgive the Polanskis and the Tysons and the OJs because of their 'celebrity' and continue to kiss your asses. The people that defend Polanski and you are the REAL 'hookers'...but Im sure you knew that already. So, the rest of you groveling little sycophants continue to worship at the altar of the likes of these self important bloated egos...it shows your character and unfortunately proves his point.Read More

I'm reading you're novel 'Lincoln' having read two of your other novels, The Pillar of Society and Myra Breckenridge. I must say Lincoln is a powerhouse of a novel. You really manage to give an accurate account of the Lincoln family, their morals etc surrounding that period of great American History, one which we are I... dare say challenged by. Particularly love the wit of the novel. Best wishes Craig Jewitt.Read More
Jason Such a pleasure,to watch an intelligent,educated man on television. More please.
Peter Bosdoganian A brilliant mind that conveys lucid thought to paper in an ingenious, artful, and entertaining way is rare in itself. Marry that to a lifetime of unimaginable acquaintances and experiences and you have Gore Vidal.
Steve I agree with you on many things as far as the Bush Administration is concerned. I cannot wait to hear what you have to say about the current administration and world events.
