Chris and George

The debate on Iraq between Christopher Hitchens and George Galloway, staged in New York last Wednesday, was lively, to say the least. While the audience was mostly anti-war, the debate seemed to me pretty much one-sided--Hitchens wiped the floor with Galloway.

(This is a separate topic, and I've been meaning to write on it, but the antiwar crowd has been, in the main, a great disappointment--with rare exceptions, they're more into jeering and name-calling than actually discussing what's going on.)

It's been repeated a few times on CSPAN2--you might want to check their schedule if you haven't seen it. Or you could read the transcript.
