Well, OK, maybe not pay, but still...it'd be interesting to watch.
Labour Friends of Iraq challenges Galloway and Hitchens to debate
“We have invited Christopher Hitchens and George Galloway to debate Iraq with each other. Their insults towards each other – popinjay versus thug – have been good theatre but we would like to facilitate a proper debate which would generate more light than heat. It’s encouraging that Mr Hitchens has agreed and that Mr Galloway is thinking about it. Such a debate would be highly valued by very many people." Gary Kent, Director of Labour Friends of Iraq.
I should say it would be. Apparently Hitchens has accepted. George?
A bully always knows his spots and who he can pick on. Don't expect Galloway to agree and if he does they'll be no real debate when Hitchens lays into him on his weak points... Galloway will just become more thuggish, insulting and ignore any of the real points.
Another words it will be all theatre and hystreonics and no real debate.
I would pay to see that. Make it an hour-long debate on Pay-Per-View and I'd pony up $9.95.
