I am reading The Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnegut. In the book there is a portion of a speach given by the unamed presdent of the US. I swear if you didn't know any better you would think it was pulled from one of Dubya's speaches.
The book was written in the late 50s so there is no way it was modeled after Dubya, but it is still pretty funny.

Has anyone else noticed the similarity.

It's been 4ever since I read that book & I luv Vonnegut, I'm gonna hafta check that out!!! While we're on the topic, Ishmael Reed wrote a book called "The Freelance Pallbearers" published in 1967 that has a similarly nightmarish Dubya~esque Prez in it 2!!!
