  • 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 ...

  • The worst kind of racism

    Christopher Hitchens is the worst kind of racist and xenophobe - the kind who refuses to believe himself capable of such by virtue of his obvious intellectual superiority to all those ridiculous, loud-mouthed, militant, over-reaching darkies. He almost makes me wish I wasn't a masochist, because he so clearly wants a punch in the nose. Sorry, ...

  • Ilk or Actuality?

    I have to question the premise of Hitchens' argument. It seems he prefers to remain among those who feel they haven't heard enough renunciation and distancing in Obama's ''handling'' of his ''pastor situation.'' The senator actually demonstrated integrity treating the Rev. Wright and his comments with more seriousness than a mere political ...

  • IT AIN'T ABOUT OBAMA: AN AMERICAN DILEMMA

    After reading the vitriol spewed by Once again another media appointed journalist darling piles on the heap of crap slung at Blacks across the social economic spectrum within America. It is of course ironic that this son of the British Empire, the most racist and genocidal governance in modern history, would be standing on top his heap of moral ...

  • Re: I AM A MORMON

    The inventory of good works cited by ''I AM A MORMON'' reminds me a lot of the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector from Luke 18: 18:10 ''Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector. 18:11 The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself like this: 'God, I thank you, that I am not ...

  • Racial superiority in Islam

    Hitchens in his article on Islamofascism writes: ''Technically, no form of Islam preaches racial superiority or proposes a master race.'' This is not entirely true. The notion of racial superirity was eliminated by Prophet Muhammad in his statements and also in the Quran, but within hours of his death, the doctrine of Meccan Arab superiority ...

  • Westboro Baptist Church!

    Hitchens writes ''This official apathy—amounting to collusion—is undergirded by a culture that cringingly insists on ''respect'' for any organization, however depraved, that can masquerade as ''faith-based.'' If I had stood outside that hideous bakery with a sign saying ''Black Muslims Are Racists and Fanatics,'' I think the cops would have ...
