Christopher Hitchens on Texas

I hadn't realized that he had done a TV documentary about the Texas of George W. Bush, back in 2004.  While I don't agree with everything here, it's pretty fair, and certainly not frivolous.



We learn a lot about ourselves by observing how other people see us.  It's in a sense like having someone hold up a mirror so that we can better see our own nature.  We may or may not agree with what they reflect back, but we'll get a new and different perspective.
