Hitchens vs. Lehane on "Scarborough Country"

MSNBC ^ | 7/6/04 | SHOOKS22

[SHOOKS22]

Christopher Hitchens is going to debate Moore apologist and "response team" member Chris Lehane on "Scarborough Country" in a few minutes. If you are in front of the tv, tune in now! Should be interesting (to say the least)....

[Just mythoughts]

Thanks, however my sloppy reading, thought it was the Chrissy Matthews show.

Lehane seems to have that "WILD-EYED" liberal look.

[csmusaret]

Lehane has filed cannibal teeth.

[Jack Wilson]

Lahane looks and sounds like something out of a cartoon, maybe a weasel or something. Pitiful.

[olde north church]

Lehane? Didn't he have a little boy to fondle?

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

That was a good solid update for us cableless folks.

[hole_n_one]

Compared to Hitchens past, he's just a couple of letters shy of GQ

[cripplecreek]

Jack Ryan on now. I don't have a dog in this race but I wish Ryan would get back into this campaign.

[Petronski]

Was Lehane wearing his tiara?

[1066AD]

LOL, wasn't Lehane Algore's chief muckraker?

[wingman1]

I have to confess, I never heard that goofball live. Now I knopw why Gore talked with a lisp at times.

[Chieftain]

Lehane has filed cannibal teeth.

ROFLMAO!! He is the one who tried the DUI surprise on George W in 2000. He is a smarmy little ba$tard, whose voice grates on my last nerve!

[what's up]

Yeh...I have no idea what was said but still feel entertained.

[get'emall]

Say what you will about Hitchens. Though he is a liberal, he is intellectually honest enough to know the irrational defense and hatred displayed by the weasel LeHane and his ilk undermines all that he believes.

LeHane is lying scum. Hitchens is wrong-minded but honest.

Game, set, match... Hitchens.

[Tamzee]

Arrggghh... I didn't see this in time to catch it. I bet the debate was a beautiful thing LOL

Nobody-but-NOBODY can tear a leftist apart like Hitchens ;-)

[CSM43]

That was the first time I've seen him live also. I've never wanted to punch someone in the face so much since, well, probably Carville. I just calm myself down by knowing that this guy is has been a loser again and again and again.

[F16Fighter]

It's a sad commentary when one has to pull for Chris Hitchins over anybody...

This is like watching Saddam vs. Arafat -- you hope they beat each other's brains in.

[cooldog]

Gads! If my voice sounded like Lehane's I would *never* speak in public, let alone on television. I do love it when a host finally gets the gumption to say "Cut his mic".

Unfortunately, Hitch didn't stop either, so Joe didn't have a chance to read the riot act to Lehane.

[The Wizard]

talk to me about missed opportunity......If you're going to have a guy like this on your show, you need to control his mic...

I would have given them 15 minutes but I would have sat on the audio....the host of the future needs to have sliders, or kill buttons to turn off the mic of "raving" guests

[umgud]

LOL, wasn't Lehane Algore's chief muckraker? Yes. He was teamed up with another fellow of the same fame and ilk (can't remember the name). The duo also briefly worked for Gov. Davis in Calif.
