The Hackenblog has moved to http://hackenblog.hackenbush.org/ or www.hackenblog.com.Please update your links, thank you.[Previous entry: "Boondocks and nuclear terrorism"] [Main Index] [Next entry: "Fear and Loathing quote"] 05/29/2003 Entry: "HST" "Summer has never been the same since the 2000 Presidential Election, when we still seemed to be a prosperous nation at peace with the world, more or less. Two summers later, we were a dead-broke nation at war, with all but three or four countries in the world, and three of those don't count. Spain and Italy were flummoxed, and England has allowed itself to be taken over and stigmatized by some corrupt little shyster who enjoys his slimy role as a pimp and a prostitute all at once -- selling a once-proud nation of independent-thinking people down the river and into a deadly swamp of slavery to the pimps who love Jesus and George Bush and the war-crazed U.S. Pentagon. " I didn't realize HST was writing for ESPN these days. He calls it sportswriting, as always, it's much more than that. I anticipate much blogging of his column. And if you haven't read his book about the 1972 presidential campaign, "Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail", do so immediately. It's one of the best books on politics and journalism and power, ever. Posted by Laurel Sutton
