This is a dead-on comparison.

Speaking of the Big Dog, there's an interview with him in the Guardian that I found interesting. It explains that bracelet I spotted on him yesterday on C-SPAN. (Somehow I thought it was a friendship bracelet from Chelsea, but it's actually even more touching than that.)

I should head down to Powell's and check out his book. I miss a guy who can, you know, string words together and make sense and not endanger the entire world with a megalomaniac war and turn the country one step closer to Orwell. But that's just me.
