This video is getting all kinds of love on Digg tonight / this morning. CNN interviewed Christopher Hitchens and Andrew Sullivan. Within thirty seconds of the interview, Hitchens has corrected the interviewer twice. Within a minute and a half, he has used words and concepts that the interviewer patently does not understand. By the middle of the interview, Hitch and Sully more or less give up on the interviewer and start just having a conversation with each other.

Incidentally, that thing about Kerry's joke. They're right - it was a failed joke about Bush being dumb. It was not aimed at the soldiers. Bravo and all that to the Democrats for screwing it up as badly as they have, but yeah - it was about Bush being uneducated and stuck in Iraq, not the troops.

Incidentally - and we know it's an unpopular position nowadays - but we still think that Andrew Sullivan contributes positively to public discourse. If nothing else, Chris Hitchens thinks he's a valuable voice - and while we don't always agree with Hitchens's ideology, his judgement still seems sound.
