The Siegelest Form of Flattery

David Weigel | August 25, 2006

Julian Sanchez heard that George W. Bush was reading L'Etranger for summer vacation, and responded with a satire in The American Prospect that knocked it out of the park. Commenter Ajay noted that it read "like the first half of Flowers for Algernon." Over at The New Republic, Lee Siegel demonstrates what the satire would have read like if Charly wrote it - and never took the smart pills.
