The geekwife sent this link to me on a debate between Hitchens and Galloway. Very amusing. Though I did find the New York crowds reaction to 9/11 as disturbing.
This all triggered me to check on commentary on the Hanson vs. Huffington brawl. The news and commentary are shockingly lacking. There was so much trumpeting about this debate on September 14th I would have sworn there would have been a lot about it. This is all I found.
WTF?
UPDATE:
LGF has some comments here. I haven't tried the link to see if there is a recorded version of the debate.
Another UPDATE:
Here is a blog coverage of the Hitchens/Galloway brawl from OxBlog.
If you're especially into pain and aggravation, you can listen to the debate archive at KPFTX.org. I haven't even gotten into the debate and I'm thinking of turning it off. The exceptional left twist of the pre-debate commentary is just pathetic. Should have expected it when they announced they are from Stop The War Productions.
Oh, and if you need to have visual punishment along with vocal punishment, you can see this mess at C-SPAN (Book TV) Saturday, 9PM EST or Sunday, 12PM EST.
If you are fortunate to be able to fast-forward through the pre-debate analysis, there is some humor in listening to Hitchens slap Galloway around. (He even slaps the crowd down once calling them "booing morons" just before they start booing, at which point they sound like they stop quickly.
Not a very good debate. No debate at all from what I've heard. You need to have two people argue a point. I haven't heard any actual arguments on the point from Galloway.

The Grand Rapids Press was certainly putting forehead to heel in order to make Arianna look good. But her arguments were so weak. Cronyism = Imerialism? Right. Explain that one to the people in the Belgian Congo.
We started watching it. Galloway doesn't argue points at all. He calls names & gets all emotional then talks about the cerebral approach he's taking to it all. Oh yeah, that cerebellum is being taxed.
