hitchens: discredited, irrelevant, frustrated and bitter

Hitchens: "I would want to revisit the judgment for libel that Galloway astonishingly managed to win" [my italics]

Hitchens,why can't you get it through your thick head?: Galloway is just an insignificant MP. He is not a criminal mastermind (nor was Saddam) who is able dupe the Telegraph, parliament, The Senate, ... . Galloway 'wins' for the simple reason that there is no evidence, because the charges are false. Galloway's enemies, e.g. Hitchens, are so frustrated that the charges (smears, rather) can't be made to stick.

Don't stop though, Chris. It is entertaining to read your continued frustration and bitterness regarding Galloway. And anyway, on the subject of Iraq, irrelevantly railing against an insignificant individual is all you remain fit to do, given that all your commentary has proved discredited (and, indeed, was predicted so by Galloway).

Very ironic that HItchens, the consummate Left-pretender whore of the Right, applies the word 'prostitute' to someone else (Galloway). When it comes to columnists applying epithets to others (e.g. "prostitute" - Hitchens on Galloway), Hitchens' blows pale besides those of others (e.g. "sack of shit" - Cockburn on Hitchens).
