1. Other: 'It took Orrex a long time to figure out that html-tags don't work in polls, too'

And Hitchens is most certainly a pompous ass, and if he weren't so darned sonorous no one would give him three minutes of airtime.


But he is indeed fun to listen to.

2. Yeah, I really want to dislike him

But anyone who can piss off as many people on the left AND right as he does is alright by me.

And he really is a damn intelligent motherfucker.

3. I like the guy, ever since I saw him beat Bea Buchannan around like a Bobo doll

for defending John McCain as a presidential candidate. Yes, Christopher Hitchens has flaws, but the guy is literate, educated, eloquent, witty like the tip of a whip, and I'm glad he's here on this planet at this moment in history. We need him.

4. I've tried to like him over the years but as soon as I think he's ok he just

annoys the hell out of me all over again. Like his "women aren't funny" article. That pissed me off. I'm sure I'll try to like him again soon, and I'm sure he'll piss me off again just as I was about to come around. Oh well.

5. he's an ass but a really good writer, God is not great is an excellent book.

how he has avoided aspirating on his own drunken induced vomit up until now escapes me.

6. Maybe this will help generate some more votes.
