this guy is a fucking shitty moderator
-
I agree with everyone; the host is an absolute moron.

@barryferguson Excelent point, asking Hitchens if he feel a personal responsabilty for Soviet agression was in such bad taste. Even Buckley was stepping up to Hitchens' rescue, if you notice.

Buckley simply owns him. I know that a lot of Hitch fans will always treat him with a certain sense of unction, but Buckley takes Hitch to the woodshed in this video.
