Hitchens attacks Gore Vidal for being a 9/11 Conspiracy 'crackpot'
The Independent
By Kate Youde
The latest salvo is in this month's Vanity Fair where, in an article headlined "Vidal Loco", Hitchens launches a stinging attack on Vidal, claiming that the events of 9/11 "accentuated a crackpot strain" in the author. He claims that Vidal's work after the terrorist attacks consists of "a small anthology of half-argued and half-written shock pieces [which] either insinuated or asserted that the administration had known in advance of the attacks."
"He openly says that the Bush administration was 'probably' in on the 9/11 attacks, a criminal complicity that would 'certainly fit them to a T'; that Timothy McVeigh was 'a noble boy', no more murderous than generals Patton and Eisenhower; and that 'Roosevelt saw to it that we got that war' by inciting the Japanese to attack Pearl Harbor," Hitchens writes.

hmmm . . .
*taking note*
it's hard to be awake; it's easier to dream--
I've actually enjoyed Hitchen's stance on religion
in his book God is Not Great. This is disappointing though. He obviously has not adequately researched 9/11 and discredits himself by not doing so.
Hitchens
is a drunken neocon hack, who never had the intellectual capacity to be able to afford to lose the brain cells that his drinking caused.
Hitchens is irrelevant.
Hitchens is a critic (in the worst sense)
But because he is a Neo-Con Atheist, he gets all the press he wants.
But that man should play the tyrant over God, and find Him a better man than himself, is astonishing drama indeed!~~D. Sayers

Atheism...
is the one place he makes some sense.
Couldn't have said it better
You nailed it.
Does The Best Man Always Get To The White House?
Anyone seen this movie that Gore Vidal wrote?
The Best Man

Regarding Palin: I believe we are watching in real time the rise of the third party, which will be controlled by the powers that be from its' inception.

Thanks.

Evidently, truth is treason
Evidently, truth is treason in the empire of lies
For an informed citizenry, individuals must discard the television set in favor of the acquisition of information via either books and/or the internet. An uneducated populous will remain in ignorance and thus continue to suffer the sharp ax of tyranny.
Hitchens has been hired by the NWO crowd
to do intellectual hits on specific targets.
Gore Vidal
Gore Vidal may be a liberal, but he's been a very prolific writer and a true intellectual.
But even that, of course, will not prevent you from being facilely dismissed out of hand by an arrogant, loudmouth neocon.
Gore Vidal knows
what's up!
