Eric Alterman verses Chris Hitchens on Bloggingheads.tv

Man, it’s good to have Chris on the right end of the spectrum.

About the Author

Walker Morrow

Sixteen years old, and full of ideas. I'm not a neocon, and my area of expertise is not foreign affairs, but I think I can fill in the gaps a little bit, with what little bit of libertarian-freeist thinking that I can muster. I'm an aspiring writer, and my main writing accomplishments thus far are a small column in the local paper, my own blog, and a place contributing to the blog Heartless and Brainless. Not to mention my contributions to this fine site. Wish me luck in the next few years, will you?

  1. Alterman just doesn’t have the temperament or the style to go up against Hitchens.

    But I also wouldn’t put Hitch on the right end of the spectrum.

  2. Well, he’s Right-ish at the least.

    And you’re right, it takes a special kind of person to be able to debate Hitchens.

  3. Hitchens is hawkish, but not right-ish. He’s basically a pro-war socialist, a neo-con leftist hawk…

  4. Perhaps you’re right. I suppose Hitchens is, in a way, in a category of his own.

    But he has been distancing himself from the Left as of late. Perhaps he is much like the signatories of the Euston Manifesto, in that respect. A classical Liberal, in other words, and in that case, well, he’s still a lot more fun.
