Hunter S. Thompsons thoughts on election.....
 

Long, but a great read.

HERE

The first time I noticed George W Bush," Hunter Thompson tells me, "was when he passed out in my bathtub at the Hyatt Regency in Houston. He was with a guy who had come to sell..." Thompson, sitting at his desk in a faded-green dressing-gown, stares down at a plate of untouched food: Danish pastries which were warm half an hour ago, smothered in red jam and melted ice-cream.

"Look, I'm not going to put this next sentence on the record. Let's just say that 'a friend of mine' was buying cocaine. I have friends in Houston from all walks of life. Lawyers. Professional men. Bush was hanging around with this crowd of what you might call gilded coke dilettantes."

"I have a friend who was with George W Bush at Yale," Thompson recalls. "Bush branded him with a red-hot coat hanger."

"Why?"

"Some fraternity thing. He still has the scar. (The victim, a respected television journalist, later confirms this story. "I couldn't swear that George did the branding himself," he tells me, "because he'd made me put a pillowcase over my head for eight hours beforehand. But he was the one in charge of the ceremony. I was on the front page of Yale News.")

"It is just incredible to me," Thompson goes on, taking a slug of Glenfiddich straight from the bottle, "that Bush ever got into Yale. Well, actually, it isn't. Some are enrolled at birth, practically. He was one. There will be others. He is an average farm hand."

Don't have time to read right now, but no doubt it's funny, or at least somewhat informative, and definitely different.. lol

Hunter S Thompson = :thumbsup

Fear and loathing in the white house

very wrong, lol.

He says some amazing shit:

...."Ronald Reagan..." Steadman ventures.

"Well," Thompson says, "he was out of his mind. He had mentally departed even before his second term, when he was wandering around, clapping himself. Although I always had a soft spot for him, because he started as a sportswriter and his wife gave the best head in Hollywood."

He has a great rant in the new Rolling Stone as well. :thumbsup
