As much as I like and respect Hitchens I think he does a bit of throwing the baby out with the bath when it comes to the Tea Party. The thing about Beck, love, hate or tolerate him, is that for all his nutty stuff I think he trends toward supporting the freedom of the individual from the tyrannical tendencies of all governments, (over time I fear it is the nature of all governments.) Some of his reasoning may be paranoid but the goal is laudable. Mike F. -- dadl-ot mailing list http://mail.thehood.us/mailman/listinfo/dadl-ot_thehood.us http://news.gmane.org/gmane.music.dadl.ot
