Soooo, John Ransom was too cowardly to write about Hitchens when he was alive, well and able to defend himself.

I personally did not agree with Hitchens style of Atheism (he called it Anti-theism)...nor his backing of Obama for _resident. but he definitely was in favor of kicking the crap out of the Islamofascists that caused 9/11.

and he was interesting to listen to.

RIP Chris

John Ransom is the Finance Editor for Townhall Finance. He’s also a regular contributor to Townhall Magazine. Ransom’s writings on politics and finance have appeared in the Los Angeles Business Journal, the Colorado Statesman, Pajamas Media and Registered Rep Magazine amongst others. Prior to joining Townhall, he worked as a political activist and consultant in the Western states. Until 9/11, Ransom worked primarily in finance as an investment executive for NYSE member firm Raymond James and Associates, JW Charles and as a new business development executive at Mutual Service Corporation.

Now tell me why should he have written columns before about Hitchens

Yes. Nothing brings out the Kick 'Em When They're Dead contingent of Christianity like an atheist's funeral.

Always enjoyed reading Hitchens.

And I always enjoy reading Ransom.

Hitchens was right about a lot of stuff, and when he was right, he was always right with style.

Ransom is right on this one.
