Hitchens whacks Bill Maher and audience
The hilarity speaks for itself.
Warning: contains some profanity.

Ahhh, poor Billy Maher. He gets his feelings hurt.
That was awesome. I'm no fan of Hitchens, but I will now quote him in my signature line.

Hitchens is a great contrarian. He genuinely caught Bill of guard; he wasn't expecting to be called pedestrian. The greatest affront to some with the ego of Maher is to tell him he's on par with Jay Leno.

That would be an insult to Leno. Maher is just a hateful, unfunny putz. He lacks courage because as Hitchens pointed out, he goes after easy targets.

Mos Def, foreign policy analyst. It's long, but so worth it.
And yes, Maher actually put him on the same panel as Christopher Hitchens and Salman Rushdie.
