I mentioned novelist/travel writer Paul Theroux in the Spam entry, and naturally enough he appears in a UK Guardian article, airing his hatred of moose hunting, hunting in general, Republicans in general and Sarah Palin in particular. He invokes Henry David Thoreau to castigate Palin, and mentions most of the usual leftist complaints, and calls her a Philistine in the bargain.
Theroux is a yellow-dog Democrat, probably has never voted for a Republican in his life; he's still worth reading, though. His latest travel book, Ghost Train To The Eastern Star, has just been published.
