Regarding Chris Matthews and the dumb guest, it was a one time thing. The usefulness of that particular moment was involved in an argument in the larger culture we were having because it deflated an argument for war by exposing that person as a know nothing.

Personally, since I think I'd been arguing with him, or at least his ideas, I was delighted to see Chris eviscerate him.

Author/Commentator Christopher Hitchens says, Bill Clinton is a "raging psycho". Wow. He also gives us too much information about how happy he is to be surrounded by hot women.

Very interesting interview, thanks for posting it.
