Another week, another shot at Bush from Hunter Thompson

Our dangerously goofy child President from Texas is a squalid example of trouble coming home to roost. He is like a half-bright football coach who goes into a big game without a Game Plan. BOOM! Shame and failure will follow you for all the days of your life. Selah.

The Bush family reeks of fraud and bad karma. But even worse than our wretched, gibbling president are the cowardly whores in Hollywood who are currently smearing film stars and music people like Johnny Depp by calling them unpatriotic Americans who righteously question the wisdom of invading a whole nation of Islam -- 1.8 billion worshipers -- which is a dangerously stupid idea. Disagreeing with Donald Rumsfeld about bombing anybody who gets in our way is not a crime in this country. It is a wise and honorable idea that George Washington and Benjamin Franklin risked their lives for. These thieves in the White House are so crazy with greed and power, and they are causing so much drastic damage to the world we live in, that they are the ones who should be put on trial for treason.

4. "Beware of War Mongers.
They don't give a hoot in hell if you live or die."

That's about as eloquent as you can get.

5. Dr. Gonzo lives, indeed!
HST hits the nail on the head, again: The Bush family reeks of fraud and bad karma. It's time for Fear & Loathing Redux: Life in Bu$h's Amerika! Come on HST, write it!

6. Another classic Thompson quote on Bush-
"A civilian gang of thieving lobbyists for the military industrial complex is running the White House. If to be against them is considered unpatriotic -- Hell, then call me a traitor."
-- Hunter S. Thompson, ABC Radio Network...

9. An old HST line!
I remember something that HST said when tricky dick was in office and it comes back to me more & more as the whistle ass occupation goes on. I won't say that this is a quote, because I don't think I have it word for sord, but he said something like "God help us when we get a really sophisticated crook in office instead of a used car salesman". Sounds like the cheyney-bush junta to me. :puke:
