Yeah, I gotta say that while I don't approve of Hitchens' going to the impeachment managers, and his approving comments about the guy he oddly calls "Judge Starr," he mainly hates Clinton for the right reasons and not the wrong ones. Bob Fitch, who knew Horowitz well back when they were both at Ramparts, is full of stories of what a scumbag Horowitz was even when he was a "leftist."
