You recollect incorrectly. They were not jeering
Hitchens, when he called them that. They were jeering
the one hundred and sixty innocents murdered that day by
islamic radicals.

They were jeering his use of victims as a debate tactic. Besides,
since Hitchens is in favor of sending and creating more victims in
Iraq, perhaps his silence should have been unending rather than just a
moment. |

You are rationalizing. They were jeering the victims.
That is what the jeers said.

You don't mind if your tax dollars go to help the Iraqis, as
long as they aren't used to help Americans. Is that your
position, James?

They jeered more than that, but I'm glad you reminded me of the
sleazy moment of silence Hitchens "took out of his time" - what
an asshole. |

The BBC take on it can be found on this page:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/today/
Personally, I thought it was a good old fashioned rough and tumble
debate. Galloway would be expected to be better at it because of all
the time he has spent in Westminster roughing-up (and being roughed-up
by) the opposition. As far as the baying students are concerned I
thought they were just doing doing what they do, one can over over
intellectualise these things. |

But I venture the challenging statement
that if American democracy ceases to
move forward as a living force, seeking
day and night by peaceful means to
better the lot of our citizens, then
Fascism and Communism, aided, unconsciously
perhaps, by old-line Tory Republicanism,
will grow in strength in our land.

Sorry but I missed that debate. But is that the same Galloway that

Maybe he had an economic interest in keeping the status quo?
I am old enough to remember when the Liberals and Democrats were the
"war party" and eager to dispose an evil dictator because he "gassed
his own people", and the Conservatives and Republicans were the
"peace party". As in "Peace in our Times".

Old enough to repeat dittohead talking points. Also old enough for
ploinking.

The truth alone will not make you free. However, it is one of the
prerequisites. Unless you know the truths underlying your options, you
cannot choose in freedom, whether you're buying shaving cream or a war.
Busheviks are simply slaves to BushCo's lies.
Trolls fed to "The vile spewers of mindless blather thread" and/or

How about JFK who gave us Vietnam? I'm old enough to remember how Kennedy
pushed us into that conflict through devious means. I remember when the
Liberal Press and the entire Democratic party were screaming about how we
needed to bring Democracy to Vietnam.
