Hunter S Thompson made my day!
Picked up the latest issue of Rolling Stone today - not much of a magazine purveyor but this one had John Kerry on the cover as well as an excellent article and endorsement...and as an extra, a wonderful piece by Dr. Thompson:

<snip>
"Four more years of Bush will be like four more years of syphilis,"

<snip>
"I endorsed John Kerry a long time ago...and I will do everything in my power, short of roaming the streets with a meat hammer, to help him be the next President of the United States."

Thanks Dr.!

8. Oh yes.
I really enjoyed the way he gets his points across...I'm off to show it to my Republican-who's-voting-Nader-this-time friend. :evilgrin:

2. 'Four more years"
I swear to God, the four years of the Bush "presidency", so far, feels like the entirety of the Reagan/Bush Sr. years. I mean, has it really been ONLY four years?
