Slog - Comments on I Owe Frank Chopp an Apology http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/04/i_owe_frank_chopp_an_apology After my Frank Chopp article hit, I received a few official phone calls from Democrats, including state chair Dwight Pelz, officially dressing me down. I listened, but told them I was happy with the article. However, there is one thing I regret about the story. I threw in a pretty weird line: "Chopp, who looks a little like Dick Cheney, explained his philosophy to me this week...."

Frankly, many white men in power look like Dick Cheney.

And I'd rather look like Cheney at 60 than the guy who played Radar on 'MASH' at 33, as Josh said about me, and he's still my friend.
