He was also pro life.

Which brings me great sadness because us atheists love eating aborted fetuses as much as we love eating babies.

I really didn't know he was pro-life. Fuck. 

So much for bodily autonomy. 

I still love Hitch though. OFC. So many memorable hitchslaps.

Denying he had an affair was in really poor taste.

Remember, we're political commentators here, but that affair helped Bill to get the black vote (in 1996); also, it helped make Obama look better, as he has been faithful to his wife.  And, it will still help Hillary out this fall.

Not a bad deal, politically speaking.
