Intro exchange that sets the tone for the entire conversation:

----------------
Robert Knight: "What does this new Bush term bode?"

Gore Vidal: "I should think it bodes for the destruction of the United States of America, certainly the republic as we understood the Republic, based upon the constitution of 1789 and the Bill of Rights has been pretty much shredded over the last five-six years. We can't blame the Bushes entirely for this because things have been going wrong for a long time. .............................
----------------

My apology for the horrid audio quality. The signal was terrible. However, Vidal's observations are not to be missed and worth the pain of poor audio quality.
