I wish I'd seen that. Hitchens vs. Twinkle Toes must have been like a steamroller squishing a dead ant.
I saw it, I thought Jr. was gonna cry! LOL. Your description is apt, you could see it coming. I guess Jr's research team forgot to tell him the LIBERAL Hitchin's POV on the Iraq war.
LOL!! He is the WORST interviewer, much worse than Olberhair--who can at least manipulate the line of questioning to get the answers he wants from his liberal guests.
I've always respected Hitchens even when I disagreed with all of his positions because he seemed to be sincere and more interested in what he saw as the truth instead of "Gotcha!" crap. Reading that exchange, I can just see that look in his face as he was probably thinking "Why do I have to deal with this NINNY!"
