"I think towards the end both Hitch and Maher wanted to be on the "winning side"...they were tired of being on the margins, they wanted to feel the comfy cozy warmth of lots of bodies with the same ideas huddled close together and believing the same things, the "comfortable" things.

A true believer doesn't stop, especially when he or she knows that the LONG sweep, not the short swipe, of history is on their side...a "Groupie" loses interest eventually....they "grow-up"...they think."

-- Hitch and Maher, based on their race, education and socioeconomic status have always been on the "winning side". A few nights back I was watching something called "The Dialectics of Violence" which was a gathering in 1967, in London, with people like Herbert Marcuse, the poet, Allen Ginsburg, Stokely Carmichael, and a number of other intellectuals and radicals. When a young white "Flower Power" Brit was asking Carmichael "what are you doing about violence in the Black communities"? Carmichael got up and fired back at him, asking, "what are YOU doing about the violence? YOU are the descendants of this violence... I'm just fighting for my life, white boy!" And in the YouTube comments below the clip people had written how correct Carmichael was, since most of the young white radicals are now (and have always been) the beneficiaries of the violence and exploitation against which they were rebelling, sort of like Hitch and Maher. What a charade!
