Why do I have the feeling that if Clay were to perform his act on a street
corner, where his targets of humor were White Men, Catholics, Heterosexuals,
Republicans, Motherhood, Middleclass or Upperclass, Ross Perot, etc,
YOU, Rik, would pay TWICE THE PRICE of the costs for his tickets, just
for the opportunity to sit at his feet, and praise him, get him elected to
President, or have each joke declared a national historic document.

What a hypocrite.
