Well, one thing this election season has done is seperate the wheat from the Chaff, Hitch joins:
1. K Parker
2. Peggy Noonan
3. David Brooks
4. Steve Murphy
As faux Conservative/Republican pundits who have been unmaksed for what they are.
Sarah Palin does Conservatism another service by merely being herself.
I don’t get it. On this panel Hitchens was all over what a fake Obama was.

Hitchins will be the first one to turn on Obama after he’s elected. Probably hoping to see him elected because it will be so easy and fun for Hitchins to demolish Barry.
No sense reading past where Palin was called a disgrace though. Good=evil, evil=good and all that.
More brilliant insight and commentary from the always evenhanded left.
I’m curious why you quote Watts when he initially said he might vote obama because he’s black?
Though his upbringing and manner were patrician the best advice Bill Buckley ever left us was it would be better to be governed by the first 200 names in the Boston phone book than by the faculty of Harvard.
“Slate is a useful as a rusty old worn out nail!”
You are right.
Their usefulness ends at they both will give you tetanus.
I don’t know why anyone ever listened to this drunken piece of sludge. The first time I ever heard of Hitchens was because of his attacks on Mother Teresa(calling her a “hellbat”). That was all I needed to hear. His being right on a few issues doesn’t change the fact that he has always been an anti religious bigot. It’s only natural for him to endorse the secularist Obama.
“Hitchens needs to leave America and go back where-ever he came from.”
He became a U.S. citizen.
Why how dare you criticize Hitchens. Don’t you understand that he is our superior in every way! He seems to have no problem suggesting that people vote for a “pathological liar.” Yet we are, of course, to revere Chrissy for his brilliance.
I have had that tagline for a very, very long time. It’s a good saying...no matter who said it.
Hitchens is a fat drunk and will wake up tomorrow and still be a fat drunk...
Christopher Hitchens
Hitch is a socialist, plain & simple. He was right on Iraq but he’s wrong on just about everything else. This really is not that much of a surprise.
Hitchens apparently believes that a man who fights to allow living infants to be left in dirty utility closet to die, without food or medical care, has the character to be president.
For this reason, his opinion is worth less than nothing to me.
Hitch is not a conservative. He is what used to be called a “Right Wing Social Democrat” a la Schachtman, Lane Kirkland, and Helmut Schmidt.
Hitchens needs to leave America and go back where-ever he came from.
He became a U.S. citizen.
Ouch! THAT hurt!
