  • Vintage Hitchens destroys Gov Palin's remains

    Mr Hitchens warns us of his ire with the 2 year campaign in his 1st sentence which goes far from being soured gastric juices. A manufacturing chemist who works daily with the most toxic compounds will identiy the composition of Mr Hitchins's 1st sentence for us shortly. I wish to be enlightened. Sarah Palin's remains, political & earthly, ...

  • Hitch On Helms like White on Rice

    Gee Hitchens, why don't you and the Queen of England tell us how you really felt about that North Carolinian champion Senator Jesse Helms? I did not know him very well, living in the Midwest among Chicago Democrats and Suburban ''Collar County'' Repubs early in life, and then moving to New England, where both the Democrats and the Republicans have ...

  • Ilk or Actuality?

Therefore understanding Mitt's religion can help us understand who he is and what he will stand for if elected. That being said, however, I fundamentally disagree with the manner ...

  • Hitchens' Hate Speech

    Frankly, Hitchens remarks are every bit as offensive as those which got the likes of Don Imus and Jimmy the Greek fired. Hitchens equates membership in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (which, by the way is not the ''so-called Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,'' even Hitchens must know that) with membership in the Ku Klux ...

  • Re: Respecting religion vs enforcing it.

    The problem with Hitchens is that he's sloppy. For instance: this statement is wrong and plays right into the hands of the most common misconception about the Pace University crime. ''a student in New York City has been arrested for an expression, '' --- NO Hitchens, the student was arrested for committing a CRIME: vandalism and larceny. The ...
