2081   [John J. Miller]

The late novelist Kurt Vonnegut was a Bush-hating leftist, but he once wrote a short story, "Harrison Bergeron," that was so conservative that NRODT reprinted it in the 1960s. Now, the tale has been brought to film—and it even stars Julie Hagerty of Airplane! The premier is on May 29 at the Seattle International Film Festival. Watch a trailer here. Read the original "Harrison Bergeron" here.
