Hunter Thompson
Re James P. Pinkerton’s May 28 Column Right: Pinkerton wonders about liberals bragging of “opposite-sex groping in such cortex-blowing quantities.” If Pinkerton can cite two examples of that type of braggadocio in Hunter S. Thompson’s writings, I will gladly revise downward my high estimation of “Uncle Duke.” If he cannot, I will conclude that Pinkerton suffers from “audience envy.”

I don’t think there is anybody who would benefit more from a trip to Las Vegas with Thompson than that junior George Will, James Pinkerton--except maybe Will himself. Can it be arranged?
