"Skipping Towards Gomorrah" [View all]
A 2003 book by Dan Savage. Since MSNBC occasionally mentions Robert Bork's Slouching Toward Gomorrah, it's important for us to remember this fun answer to it.
My interpretation of Dan Savage's book is that some of the "immortality" that virtuecrats like Bork and O'Reilly talk about could actually help regular people deal with the savage economic system that has been imposed on us by allies of Bork such as Ronald Reagan.
For instance, this economic system no longer gives as much paid vacation time for employees. Dan Savage suggests that smoking pot is the equivalent of taking a vacation. Well, I don't know if that's true but you get the point.
The book's plot is for Dan Savage to go undercover, travel around the country and observe people committing the seven deadly sins. The main message is that the virtuecrats should mind their business and let people pursue life, liberty and happiness.

BTW
Robert Bork, instead of standing up for what's right, is famous for following the orders of Nixon to fire the Watergate special prosecutor after TWO of the MEN above him refused and each had to resign. This event is known as the Saturday Night Massacre. Just think, Nixon wanted to fire the man who was investigating him! The special prosecutor subpoenaed the famous Nixon tapes so Nixon wanted him fired. Eventually the tapes were released and Nixon resigned.
Astonishingly, Reagan nominated Bork for the Supreme Court. For several reasons, including the Saturday Night Massacre, Bork was not approved. Check out wikipedia:
