"Whatever Hitchens is he is no faker. And Galloway is just a lunatic incapable of skinning anyone alive or dead."

Sorry, obviously you didn't see what these two could do to each other to become capitalists to sell their books. Whatever Hitchens can be called, faker is the most complimentary.

Chairman Mao sold lots of Little Red Books too. So what? Hitchens is right on the money when it comes to the realization that the greatest enemy of mankind today is the Islamic terror movement. That is really all that matters and he certainly is NOT a "faker" when it comes to that realization.

Why would you use an anti-capitalism argument to attempt to besmirch Hitchens?

#26---pretty weird perspective, dude.
That argument is what's classically called
a "reductio ad absurdum"---the idea that "it all
comes down to" the desire "to sell books".
REALLY!!!
