Christopher Hitchens is a moron
Ok I am too tired to critique this garbage in a more civilized way, except to say that he is a retarded poopyhead and my cat is brighter than he is....

I do not know how many times I have either read or heard Fleischer being misquoted on this, either accidentally or deliberately, since his own modest letter was published in the New York Times two and a half years ago. But I think this slander should now be put to rest. I think so, first, because it is a minor injustice and a minor distortion of the historical record. I think so, second, because I recently spent a full hour being interviewed on Al-Jazeera, which was mounting a show on the "fear industry" in the United States. I felt obliged then, and feel obliged now, to say that such fear as there is has been principally the result of loud and gloating statements and actions, made and taken by people who thirst to kill us. To enjoy the privilege of a newspaper column, and to choose to stress instead the Fleischer reign of terror, strikes me as grotesque, and also as very slightly worrying.


blah blah blah

The guy actually thinks he is an intellectual :eyes:

1. He's been wrong so many times it's a wonder he's invited on anything
He's become a joke.
Maher should have kicked his butt off the show the moment he flipped off Bill's audience.

5. It's the "sauce" talking.
And I would probably prefer to hear from your cat while on your cat's sauce of choice.
