  • Man version of hypnotoad =p

  • @MrLincolnj Correct Sir. Irving is not respected in the way Hitchens describes. Evans and Lipstadt demolished what remained of his reputation. Irving is a man who falsifies evidence, takes documents out of context, evaluates and selects documents according to their usefulness to his political ideology. He uses history as a means of propagating his political views, not as a means of discovering truth.

  • good thing Hitchens can't see. It'd be hard to argue and keep your thoughts organized staring at such an absurd cretin.

  • @thegafferlives silly--simply silly--I hope you are 16---its ok then------ok here---what if your mom---no disrespect--- was creepy looking--would you just put on 'pay no mind'? Hear him. Also, btw, as it simply 'happens' to be, a good looking guy. ONLY thing that matters here---is he is "on" Does he make his points? Are you simply searching for the best most pleasing t the eye person-ok (I) get that---I'm nutz bout GOOD Koochie--but this is not about that- js listen

  • What a creepy little fellow.

  • Wow, I haven't seen so many speech impediments on a show in a while. Thank goodness for Christopher Hitchens.

  • @manthasagittarius You write what i going to lol

  • @MrLincolnj Well -- yes, it's rot, and as I said, he's a revisionist. The scariest revisionists are ones who dig deep and learn a lot, and then willfully do what they want with the information, even to falsifying some of it in the revolting proprietary way in which the end is taken to justify all means -- knowing that few people will have turned over as much material, or will feel up to refuting it. STILL -- let it be heard and refuted, not repressed. Seems to me this is Hitchens' position.
