Being There

Please don't tarnish the fine name of Jerzy Kosinski (author of "Being There"), by comparing his work of art to Bush.

I think the typical US citizen under Bush is more like the child protagonist in "Painted Bird" also written by Jerzy Kosinski. One of the more gruseome books I ever read.

Jerzy was quite the troubled soul and committed suicide a few years back.

And Kerry is about an affair away from being Citizen Kane.
