<p><strong>Revolutionaries, reporters and film crews assembled on
Friday morning for a "Press Conference and Anti-Inaugural
Banquet." It was held near Howard University at Café
Manowaj, a cool and funky hang-out run by a crew of radical South
Africans. Steaming breakfast dishes (named for people’s
heroes and historical highpoints) soon appeared. Indymedia and RW
reporters tended to order Amandla eggs. The Fox-5 TV guy was all
over the Paris Commune French Toast. (His footage of our
red-flag-filled cowboy-hat stomping made the 5 o’clock news
that night.)</strong></p>

house who are deep into biblical armageddon prophesies? No? In that
case, I first need to first walk you all through my ‘Armageddon
Crash Course for post-Enlightenment Thinkers’....</p>
<p>At this very moment millions of people are being seduced into
going for simple, good-versus-evil answers to the agonizing and
growing complexities of the world. They are consumed with the coming
Judgment Day, the return of Jesus, Armageddon, the Rapture.</p>

GORE VIDAL: I don't see much future for the United States, and I put it on economic grounds. Forget moral grounds. We're far beyond any known morality, and we are embarked upon a kind of war against the rest of the world. I think that the thing that will save us, and it will probably come pretty fast, when they start monkeying around with Social Security, that will cause unrest. Meanwhile, the costs of the wars the cost of rebuilding the cities immediately after we knock them down (text/plain)
