Ravings Of A Limey Loon

Chris Hitch sells an otherwise marginally sensible opinion piece to the Wall Street Journal's loathsome op-ed page with a calculated slander:

"A large tranche of the once-secular liberal left has disqualified itself by making excuses for jihad and treating Osama bin Laden as if he were advocating liberation theology."

What a sorry sod.

The snivelling snitch invokes the real and imagined patriarchs and matriarchs of the Republican Party: Lincoln, Goldwater, and those modern intellectuals, Ayn Rand and Leo Strauss. You forget Ken Starr and Babbs Olson, Hitch.
