That's 21st century "journalism". Opinion and hyperbole gets eyeballs and $$, just the facts gets nada.

I like how people are criticizing Hitchens' work based on some YouTube debate video content.
he was a brutally succinct and informed author.
yes, and he also called Mother Theresa a scam artist
it's edifying to avail yourself of the opposing point of view
I wonder how history will judge the obstruction of congress that we've witnessed throughout this impeachment process.
Considering that the Constitution grants sole authority to Congress to impeach a president, I wonder if this process has usurped Congress's powers.

even three sheets to the wind, the guy was more intelligent, informed, and

I read a book about about invading and not using containment.
It was pretty compelling.
A big part of the problem was execution.
Rumsfeld thought we could win with tech, not man power.
As Army Chief of Staff, Shinseki testified to the United States Senate Committee on Armed Services on February 25, 2003 that "something in the order of several hundred thousand soldiers" would probably be required for postwar Iraq. This was an estimate far higher than the figure being proposed by Secretary Rumsfeld in his invasion plan, and it was rejected in strong language by both Rumsfeld and his Deputy Secretary of Defense, Paul Wolfowitz, who was another chief planner of the invasion and occupation.[1
Fair enough, but I still don't understand how someone that smart was 140% committed to the NeoCon ethos and the second Iraq war.
Maybe. but I've read enough of his long-winded essays on the matter to know I wouldn't be convinced, plus we now have the historical context to know that the case the administration made was total BS
