Christopher Hitchens' Snitchen is out of Joint

He had very nasty words on Hardball tonight about "Fahrenheit 911" insisting the only real premise (which he called purile) for the movie is to blame Bush and the Bush family's ties to the Saudis and bin Ladens for everything. Then our 150 proof writer suggested that John Kerry better be willing to refute the film.

Why should John Kerry respond to the film? My understanding is that Kerry does not appear once in the film. Kerry wasn't even Moore's choice in the Dem primaries, when the GOP and media insisted Wes Clark refute Moore (sense a familiar theme?).
