Hitchens is the very definition of an independent thinker. Wish I was that clever.

Clever all right, but he's for sale. I lost interest in anything he might have to say when I saw him savaging W on BBC. Actually that's not true. I lost interest in him when he stated in re Thatcher's poll tax and the possibility of violence that he always liked to see the workers get violent with the rulers - something like that.

That said, he is very smart, and quickly picked up on support for taking the war to the Islamists as a way of maintaining his market share.

Nice to see the left eating the left.
