3. How it might play out... |
|
1.) Hitchens backs out at last minute, scheduling difficulties.
2.) Hitchens shows up half-sauced, gets his ass handed to him.
3.) Hitchens shows up half-sober, gets his ass handed to him.
4.) Words failing him, Hitchens resorts to physical violence, gets his ass handed to him.
--------------------------------
Of course, the "drink-sodden ex-Trotskyist popinjay" might actually give Galloway a workout, but I doubt it.
This is the beginning of the end of Hitchens.

4. Cowardice would be the better choice here. |
|
We will have to dig up a tape to listen to.

7. I wish they would quit foisting the drunkard Hitchens onto us |
|
Last time I saw him behind a podium he could barely speak.

11. "Waterloo" comes to mind. |
|
Except this time both combatants are British.
Only one will walk away whole.
It's a "Rumble in the Concrete Jungle"
It's "Combattin' in Manhattan"
It's bound to be a slaughter. NY DUers are in for a treat.

9. Hitchens better bring some "liquid confidence". He is going ... |
|
... to get his ass handed to him.

10. "Drink soaked ex-Trotsyite popinjay" |
|
I'm sure it takes a lot of solvents to unstick that from one's craw...
Sheer pomposity of Hitchens' caliber is hard to watch, even when being skewered.

12. Just think of it as 'bloodsport'. |
|
This is an empire, after all.
I'm sure Galloway wouldn't mind being visualized as a lion.
