Monday evening, approximately 500 people gathered at the Plaza Hotel in New York for the 80th Birthday Roast of Norman Podhoretz to benefit COMMENTARY magazine.
Editor in Chief John Podhoretz was the Master of Ceremonies and the roasters included Mark Steyn, Charles Krauthammer, Roger Hertog, George Wiegel, Orson Bean, Jackie Mason, William Bennett and Henry Kissinger.
It was an elegant evening of humor, reminiscences and tributes, of which the following is only a portion of one — the last five minutes of Bill Bennett’s roast/tribute (the video is here for email subscribers).
