Predictable...

And moreso because I'm the last to know....:)

Sidney Blumenthal's book "The Clinton Wars" is reviewed in the current Atlantic Monthly by CHRISTOPHER "the snitch" HITCHENS!
I mean what are the odds on something like that?
:)
I mean not for nothing but Chris IS dismissed as a petty, tyrannical,jealous, ignorant, social climbing hack in that abovementioned volume.
D'ye think that might color Mr. Hitchens' critical faculties?
In way it doesn't...anyone else could've written Blumenthal's book and probably come in for the usual pasting from Hitchens.
Independent apologists for the narcissistic cult of modern conservatism never change in that regard.
Ultimately this affair d' Hitchens simply exposes The Atlantic Monthly's barefaced interests in the matter for all to see.
I mean presumably hiring Galleazzo Ciano to review Haile Selassie's new book sorta tells you something right off.
Well...I should actually read the review or else bite the bullet and simply stop reading the Atlantic Monthy.
