Some DU Steve Irwin threads remind me of Chris Hitchens vs Mother Theresa

Anyone feel like discussing that instead?

"Well, they had noble intentions"

"But, they did some bad things too"

"Well, I can overlook those"

"But, I can't, those throw everything else into doubt about them"

etc?

2. I wonder if there'd be much of a market for

bleeding statues of Christopher Hitchens? ;-)

5. Lets just cut to the chase and admit that there are a shocking number

of people on this site who are mentally ill.

4. Can't I Just Loathe Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu and Christopher Hitchens?

Hitchens was right about Hell's Angel; Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu was a skilled self-aggrandizer. I wouldn't want either in my home.

6. Yeah, Hitchens has done some good things, but I wouldn't want him in my

home either. He'd probably find a way to empty my liquor cabinet.

The Trial Of Henry Kissinger was another good one of his though, imho.

7. Since a bunch of Irwin threads are still going strong on page one...

I'm gonna give this one last kick.

8. But Hitchens was right about her...

he may be a gin-soaked asshole, but he was accurate in his assessment
