Onion interview with PJ O'Rourke.....
I've always appreciated PJ as a writer, even if I disagreed with most of his (conservative) opinions.

This is a good interview. He says kind words about Hunter S. Thompson (obviously) but also Michael Moore and Al Franken. And he calls Coulter crazy.

1. I used to enjoy PJ O'Rourke back in the Days of the Old Republic
And yes, he's the kind of conservative a centrist could love.

But he has fed the beast, fellated the beast, made the Beast's bed and turned back the covers (not to mention put a mint on the Beast's pillow).

So I cannot stand him anymore. That he "knew not what he did" with regard to the impending destruction of the Constitution and Bill of Rights, is no excuse.

Fuck you, PJ.

2. I knew PJ when he was a liberal
We were both "staff members" of an underground newspaper in Baltimore called Harry back in the 60's. I can only say that I am very glad that I never took whatever it was he took to change him so abruptly and completely. My personal theory is that he got off on kinky Repub sex.
