...........? Because he didn't like the Clintons? They're fundamentally unlikable, not that this has hurt them as politicians, lol.

Hitchens really did not like the Clintons. Hitchens seemed quite intelligent when it came to being anti-god, but maybe not so much when it came to politics.
What are you talking about? He's perfectly intelligent when it comes to politics if he doesn't like the Clintons, they're fucking assholes.

I am glad you say that they are assholes. I thought I was going to get hounded by a bunch of Hilary supporters.

I liked Hitchens for a while. I enjoyed his videos I watched on youtube. But some folks really don't like him, and I would like to know why.

He was caustic, and ofc many people disagreed with him on the subject of religion - and not just on the subject but how to approach people who belonged to them (for the religious) or iraq (for the secular). I liked the guys public persona, I particularly liked that he agreed to get his silly ass waterboarded...apparently, just to realize that it was, in fact, torture...contrary to his previous opinions, lol.

You know, that could also describe Clinton as well.

Looks like you're safe. If Minimalist (arguably the biggest Hillary supporter here) hasn't given you much shit in this thread, then I doubt any of the other Hillary supporters (whoever they may be) in this forum will.

nice one! Trump is the real idiot this race. Maybe if the republicans could get an actual educated candidate they might have had a chance. But, I think Trump could still win.
