You know, I’m actually more excited that Chris Dudley isn’t the governor than that John Kitzhaber is. To psyche myself up for the next four years, I put together this little treasury of John Kitzhaber looking badass. The proper soundtrack for these photos is a patriotic song by National Whistling Champion Chris Ullman:
John Kitzhaber, Finally in an Appropriate Cowboy Jeans Setting:

John Kitzhaber: Burly General Hospital Edition

John Kitzhaber Looking Manly in Front of His Own Manly “Dignified Wildman” Portrait
John Kitzhaber: Wearing an Awesome Tie.

John Kitzhaber: Serious Smarts. Serious ‘stache.

John Kitzhaber Also Makes an Excellent Cartoon Cowboy

this is fucking awesome.
you just made my day.
This is the perfect end to a long shitty day. Imma gonna go to the Landmark and drink whiskey now and probably listen to this and look at the photos for the next 2 hours.
Anyone man enough to flip off $980 million is man enough for me.
Old pictures of him kind of look like Chuck Norris…
I think he’s kinda looking Ted Turner.
