A lot of people talk endlessly about what these idiot politicians are doing, but I tend to talk more about musicians and writers and artists. That's what interested me. You remember that line about poets being the unacknowledged legislators of the world? Some truth in that.
Leonard Cohen thought of himself as a poet, and evidently as a hidden ruler of the world to boot, but the truth is that he was not worth the dirt under T.S. Eliot's toenail. The Yids know this, once I was in a bookstore reading some tome by that bore Harold Bloom, and came upon a confession: "I always hated Eliot." Not his work, but him. Because he was a constant reminder that yes, God has passed you by and settled on the Gentiles. Shakespeare said, my words will last as long as civilization, they will outlast bronze and marble, but Leonard Cohen cannot say the same.
