Beating a dead horse: Actually, just one of the horses is dead. But I wanted to point out the Slate profile of comedian Chris Rock, who inspired some controversy (much of which was manufactured by Matt Drudge).
Please note, that Chris Rock is not the "Hunter S-ing Thompson of Standup."
Actually, the profile is a good one for those who aren't too familiar with the very complex comedian. He definitely has a chip on his shoulder, and I won't be the one to knock it off. Classify him as a conservative at your peril. But he's not as compatible with America's Left (or Europe's Left) either. He seems like a pragmatic libertarian.
