I thought David Dreier's was sincere. Him calling Christopher Hitchens a patriot was indeed a compliment; and an area in which Dreier and Hitch shared common interests and passions was against radical Islam. I didn't think Dreier's statement was political. I actually found his to be more sincere and passionate.

I liked Steven Cohen's tribute, it was truly a tribute to Hitchens and a farewell to a friend, while Rep. Dreier could not resist doing a little political propaganda with his "radical Islam" remark, and his "patriotism" remark and that Hitch would have disagreed with the Democrat; and he also could not resist saying that his prayers went to him, he "hesitated" but he still had to go ahead and mention "prayers".

What a great eulogy.

Bavo, Rep. Dreier! Check out atheist books @ Amazon.
