He quotes one disaffected member of Mother Teresa's order who claims some $50 million accumulated in a single checking account in the Bronx and that the vast sums taken in never reached the poor. But Hitchens has no idea how much the order takes in or what it costs to run its far-flung operations. And his flippant tone--why the title's sophomoric double-entendre?--and refusal to take into account Roman Catholic dogma make us distrust his objectivity.


Hitchens is a lying hack. It's not ad hom to say his willingness to lie to support invading Iraq goes to show his lack of objectivity.

Is this article all lies: http://www.newsweek.com/id/96859
