re: Throwback to Ben Affleck being a jerk and getting completely owned by Sam Harris

Why does everyone talk over each other? Sam Harris is the coolest customer on there and is light years ahead of the rest of the panel.

Lol@ Michael Steele. Adds nothing as usual.

Nicolas Kristof actually comes across as the dumbest member of the panel, yes even dumber than Affleck. Read through this paragraph where he’s trying to defend Islamists as if they aren’t barbarians:

The picture you’re painting is to some extent true but it is hugely incomplete. It is certainly true that plenty of fanatics and jihadis are Muslim, but the people who are standing up to them: Malala (so?), Muhammad Ali, Dadak in Iran imprisoned for nine years for speaking up for Christians, a friend that I have in Pakistan who was shot this year, Rushi Ruffmond, for defending people accused of apostasy.

Sam had to thinking “Ummm, yeah you fricking idiot. You do get shot for standing up for people accused of apostasy over there. Thanks for proving my point.” Sam has said that after the show wrapped up Ben stormed out and Sam and Christof really got into it with extreme insults to the point that Sam said made his encounter with Ben look civil in comparison. Those two really, really hate each other.
