Good read. Be sure to look at the re-edit of the What Women Want trailer.

I must admit, sometimes Hitchens' obsessive anti-religious attacks get kind of tiresome. Linking Gibson's rants to Catholicism seems somewhat spurious to me - he's a bipolar alcoholic asshole. What more do you need? Why throw Jesus into the mix?

hitch has absolutely no room to talk. when it comes to spreading evil in the world today, he leaves crazy old mel far in the dust; CH advocates, war and murder, but he's never used the n word.

Our politically correct society has is moral priorities completely askew and backwards.

If you make unpleasant remarks about or towards a "minority," you can kiss your reputation goodbye. If you fill the pages of our newspapers and load our airwaves with hate-filled, Goebbels-style propaganda directed towards the official enemy of the month (usually some hapless third world country), you're a respected journalist.

Hitchens combines the worst qualities of Richard Dawkins and William Kristol.
