Journalist: Are you a transvestite or a homosexual
Lou: Sometimes
Journalist: Well which one?
Lou: What's the difference?
Hahahah. His arrogance and indifference throughout the interview is absolutely hilarious. His ability to take himself so seriously while simultaneously mocking the entire situation is pure comedy. I wish there was some way Obama could go back in time and return with young Lou Reed in order to appoint him Press Secretary. Watching young Lou Reed field questions from a panel of White House reporters would be high comedy.
White House Reporter: Mr. Reed what does the president plan to do about the war in Iraq?
Lou: What difference does it make?
WHR: Are you saying the President has no affect on the war?
Lou: I'm saying there is no war.
WHR: There is no war in Iraq?
Lou: What does it matter if there is or if there isn't?
WHR: Well what does matter to the president?
Lou: Drugs.
WHR: The president is concerned with the war or drugs at the Mexican border?
Lou: Yea.
WHR: In what way?
Lou: Confiscating the drugs for personal use.
WHR: The president is using drugs?
Lou: No. I am.
And so on...
Oh how I wish this was the case... in a perfect world.
