"Could anything be more cowardly and contemptible?"

Christopher Hitchens is my hero.

I see him as a sort of intellectual heir apparent to Hunter Thompson. Hmmm... so then does that make Slate the new Rolling Stone?

Only Hunter could've honed in on the danger of Palin's brand of populism in such a brutally honest (yet deliciously entertaining) fashion. God Bless him.

(I really hope I don't have to explain the wonderful irony of "God Blessing" Christopher Hitchens. Come on people... I don't want to have to work at this...)
