Hitchens is a 100% Bush-supporting chickenhawk who became famous for exaggerating the threat of Saddam and taking on anti-war activists like Michael Moore. He was the first one to condemn FAHRENHEIT 9-11 though he could not name a single lie in it, just criticized its tone and spin. Fine, but who invented propaganda-like spin and has been dumping it on our heads for ten years every single day? The far right media in this country. The Hannity and Limbaugh types created Michael Moore. And so what if Moore shows us the TRUE side of GW Bush and friends that the mainstream media refuses to for some reason? We need to know the true GW before we can consider voting for him. GW Bush in truth is a New England Yankee elite preppy transplanted to Texas where he has exaggerated his Texas twang, used and abused his daddy's big money contacts and basically played a frontman cheerleading role. I already detailed his Lee Atwater ties and money ties with the Saudis, Enron and cash-for-trash deals with polluters. (read "The Dirty Truth") Furthermore his No Child Left Behind is mainly hype and he falsified his "teach to the test" education record (as well as his military record) in Texas. He also has a very poor record on health care, jobs and bi-partisanship and race relations. Finally, he is a poor diplomat and seems in the pocket of the hardliner neocons who see foreign policy as a shell game where you tell the public one thing, then do another.
