"Friends, I am honored to accept the Democratic nomination for vice-president. Unfortunately, the stipend I received to come here was barely enough to cover expenses and discharge a few gambling debts, so I will keep my comments brief and not Expound on the Great Issues of Our Time until the DNC can pony up with some of Soros' cash.
Yes, Kerry may be a swine, but he is our swine. These are Weird Savage times, and it takes a weird savage to look the Fear straight in its demented eye and spit in it. Kerry is not about to do THAT. Let's face it, he doesn't even have the balls to admit whether or not his Woman will let him drive the family SUV.
That's where I come in. I don't really give a Damn about what you think, and if you are a Republican scum, your brain is the size of a gnat's testicle and not worthy of any concern AT ALL. I will lagalize all drugs, including hallucinogens and raw ether. Gun ownership will be mandatory. And you can get married to your cow for all I care. In fact, I know as a fact that Bill Clinton's first Knowledge of Carnal Affairs was with a ...
Ho ho, I digress, and until I get a little more of Soros' green, I'm not about let this Out of The Bag. And for those of you who can handle the Pressure, come up to my room and I will give you the over/under on our victory margin over the Moron."
"I was somewhere around Cape Cod when the drugs kicked in..."
You may want to look at the budgets submitted to congress. I don't have a link handy and am at work.
Um....did Kerry ever read this son-of-a-bitch's book Fear and Loathing in Los Vegas?
Particularly the section where Thompson confesses to drugging-out a young girl and virtually raping her?
I would be embarrassed to be in the same room as Thompson and Kerry's joking around about him being a VP?
Get a freaking clue, you a$$.

(ASPEN JOURNAL) NEW FEAR AND LOATHING: GONZO WRITER ON TRIAL
by Dirk Johnson
copyright the New York Times, Tuesday May 22, 1990
And so it is with the case of the State of Colorado v. Hunter S. Thompson, who lives in a secluded mountain hollow called Woody Creek, a few miles outside this glitzy resort town.Mr. Thompson, 52 years old, is to appear in court Tuesday for a pretrial hearing on charges of misdemeanor sexual assault and felony charges of possession of illegal drugs and dynamite. The charges stem from a meeting between Mr. Thompson and Gail Palmer-Slater, a former producer of pornographic films, last February in the writer's home.
According to a statement Ms. Palmer-Slater gave to the authorities, he became angered when she would not join him in his hot tub. He twisted her breast and flung a drink at her, she said. She also said he and some friends were snorting a substance she believed was cocaine.
Three days later, six investigators from the District Attorney's office went to Mr. Thompson's home with a search warrant for illegal drugs. After an 11-hour search, they said, they turned up about a tenth of a gram of cocaine, a few ounces of marijuana, 39 tablets of LSD, a small number of Valium-like sedatives and a few sticks of dynamite.
Mr. Thompson was charged with misdemeanor sexual assault. The drug charges are felonies. Possession of dynamite without a permit is also a felony. If he is convicted, he could go to prison for decades.
The writer, who said prosecutors had offered a plea bargain that would result in two years of court supervision, said emphatically that he would reject the offer.
Mr. Thompson, his friends and even a few longtime enemies here have reacted with indignation over the search, which they contend was unconstitutional.
"Nobody can remember when a misdemeanor charge has caused an 11-hour search with six officers," said one friend, J. Michael Solheim. Supporters have organized the Hunter S. Thompson Legal Defense Fund.
Mr. Thompson said the drugs found by the authorities were probably several years old. "I've been living in this house for 24 years, and every freak in the world has come through - well, not every freak," he said. "And I'm sure it's possible they might have been able to scrape up something in an 11-hour search."
Mr. Thompson - who was nearly elected sheriff here in 1970 - said the search and charges had resulted from a personal vendetta from some enemies. He added that the case illustrated the erosion in the rights of privacy.
"There was a time in this country when you didn't risk your life and freedom by having some little pills in your house," he said. "What's at stake here is the Fourth Amendment. Things have apparently gone a lot farther in this country than I had realized."
Mr. Solheim said Mr. Thompson was being punished for his eccentric way of life and his liberal writings. Prosecutors did not return repeated telephone calls.
It is a strange, unseemly adventure, one that Mr. Thompson might have written about. Indeed, he said it might be grist for his mill.
"It's a weird idea, but I'm thinking about covering my own trial," Mr. Thompson said. "I'm sure my lawyers will go nuts."
Mr. Thompson said his reports on the trial might appear in Rolling Stone, the magazine that still bears his name on the masthead as head of "national affairs."
And his agent, William Stankey, said the legal difficulties had been a boon to Mr. Thompson's lecturing career. "It's really increased the interest in Hunter on college campuses," said Mr. Stankey. "He's already booking into the fall."
kerry how about daffy duck.
And the media is silent on this man's background?
I'm looking at the photo you posted at #16! Thompson looks like he had a little "accident" in his pants while riding in the limo. LOL! (hope he finds his shopping cart)
In the latest Zogby poll they asked to vote on political pairs such as Bush/Cheney OR Kerry/Dean ..??
Kerry/Dean ..??
I can't believe they are floating that trial balloon.
" I would be embarrassed to be in the same room as Thompson and Kerry's joking around about him being a VP?
Particularly the section where Thompson confesses to drugging-out a young girl and virtually raping her?"
Kerry seems to have a special fondness for those who assault young girls.
Guess Gonzo and Pedro can look forward to a spot in a Kerry Administration.

Hunter Thompson-" I was charged with everything from. . . I was once charged with rape, assault . I bit a woman on the back. I was the Marv Albert of my time. I was a wild boy."
Breakfast With Hunter, a documentary, has Hunter Thompson telling Johnny Depp “I was in jail for rape when I was 15.”
Kerry is also good buddies with Peter Yarrow or as Kerry calls him, " Pedro." :
" In 1970, Yarrow pleaded guilty to taking “immoral and "improper liberties with ... a female child ... with the intent of arousing ... gratifying the lust, passions and sexual desires ...”
" At the time of the crime in Washington, D.C., Yarrow was 30 years old and the girl was a mere 14.
"If that’s not bad enough, her 17-year-old sister was in the room watching the hanky-panky, according to an Associated Press report on his guilty plea."
“According to the victim’s statement ... , Yarrow who was in Washington on a concert tour, admitted the girl and her 17-year-old sister to his hotel room,” the story says. “Yarrow was reportedly naked when he answered the door.”
The AP report continues:
“Later Yarrow reiterated the couple’s actions were by mutual consent while the older girl looked on.”
"The singer spent three months in jail for his offense, and also underwent psychiatric treatment, his attorney told the Associated Press."
"Luckily for the folk singer, he had a friend in a very high place. President Jimmy Carter pardoned Yarrow the day before leaving office, thereby protecting the singer from ever having to register as a sex offender."
Byron York, National Review,"John Kerry's Time Warp, " 02/07/04
" Before the Iowa caucuses, Washington Post reporter Ceci Connelly described the candidate hanging out on the bus with Peter Yarrow, his old friend from Peter, Paul, and Mary.
"Pedro, sing us a song," Kerry ordered one day.
" Yarrow picked up a guitar and began to play and sing — and later waxed nostalgic about the antiwar rallies he attended way back when with Kerry and Eugene McCarthy."
"Earlier, Connelly wrote, when Yarrow sang "Puff the Magic Dragon" at an event in a private home in Ames, Iowa,
"Kerry lifted his fingers to his mouth for a quick toke on an imaginary joint.
You can almost see his thick mane of silver hair returning to the shaggy brown do of those days."
Imagine the press frenzy if President Bush hung out with
admitted child molesters, admitted rapists and pantomimed smoking dope.
Just for accuracy, his personal attorney drugged-out and raped a young girl in a fictious story, Hunter made him get rid of her.
Just how clear Hunter is in the distinction between reality/fiction/hallucination is another question.
Hey Marky-Mark...does your speech also say that you LIED in your campaign promise when you said "I will not raise taxes" and you tried THREE times before you were successful? Of course to pull it off you had to LIE about the revenues and the SURPLUS THAT CAME AFTER THE BUSH TAX CUT!!!!!!!!
Savage said today that the Democrats are always more vicious because they can commit mass murder like they did in Serbia and the media will never call them on it.
That sounded good until it occurred to me that the rats tend to support any gang of muzzies and only commit mass murder against Christians.
There was enough "truth" to Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas that reportedly Hunter's attorney (who insisted on having his photo on the book's jacket) got busted for drugs (after being IDed from the book) and lost his license. That is my understanding from the bonus materials from Criterion's "FALILV" deluxe DVD.
The Democrats are stuck back in Flower Time as if the 1960's had never ended.
Gag me with a spoon. It does look like Thompson had a wee accident.
Hunter Thompson, Mark Warner...all cut from the same cloth - absurdity.
You had to go back to 06/22/2004 to find something to comment on??? Afraid of today's news???
