Two different takes on the Hitch...

First off, Roger Ebert :

Secondly, Rayturd Comfort (Hitch isn't specifically named in this tripe, but it's f'ing obvious):

Thanks, shadow, for both of them. Both illuminating, one also touching.

Sorry to hear of the Hitch's bout with cancer. Sigh, all those cigarettes, all that Scotch - it's like daring fate to do the almost inevitable, and one would expect some caution when papa died of the same thing!
Hitchens disappointed much when he suddenly did a turnabout and supported GW Bush.
Nonetheless, we love his eloquent put downs of religion, and wish him a full, speedy, least uncomfortable recovery!
