Title: No One Left to Lie About: The Fantasies of Chris Hitchens
Review: Christopher seems obsessed with sex -- other people's, that is. On page 26 Christopher writes: "'The Monster,' Morris called Clinton when in private congress with his whore. 'The creep,' she called Morris when she could get away and have a decent bath."The irony here is that Christopher had just spent pages 16 through 18 trying to convince us that he and Ken Starr were not guilty of "Sexual McCarthyism" -- a term which Chris finds offensive.Yet a mere 8 pages later Chris is talking about "whores" and "creeps" in his characteristic condescension and disdain towards others. That condescension and disdain runs throughout the book, a mighty torrent of revulsion. I, however, feel revulsion for Hitchens himself. He is a truly, frightfully ugly man.
