2. Chomsky won the debate...
Pearl went on to make millions and establish himself as a major player in the neo-con take over of the media and the political establishment.

'Course Chomsky wasn't counting on 9-11. As he described it, 9-11 was a godsend for the Hard Right, and they took full advantage of it.

'Course, IMHO, Richard Perle WAS counting on 9-11. As was Rummy, Cheney, Poppy...Oh, yes, indeedy...

maybe one day they'll tell shrub the whole scam...

3. Best. Post. Ever.
I'm sorry, I know that is overdone but though I am still listening to this in it's entirety I am simply enthralled. This is intellect at it's highest level. Perle is one of the most intelligent conservatives that ever slimed it's way forth from the primordial ooze. Chomsky is well, Chomsky and if you don't know what I mean by that you need to hear this audio. You NEED to.

Keep in mind when listening this took place in 1988. It provides a fascinating look at the right/left argument as it existed in the wake of Reagan's presidency.

Thanks for this Truizm. I didn't know this audio existed.

12. Gotta Love Chomsky
Gotta love the man for his work on the nature of US Imperialism, though, like many US socialist authors, he's too much of a utopian...

17. big strong kick. AND listen to Chomsky LIVE, here on Saturday morning
http://www.thisishell.com

their fund drive, but it's not intolerable, like NatPetRad

Greg Palast is their other guest, btw.

Saw him last year at Northwestern, under thisishell's aegis.

this show is as good as any you'll hear on the radio/online.

check their archives

chuck lewis, dean baker, Karen Kwiatkowski, all sorts of familiar names.

they're very hard left, though, and don't care too much for the dem party, as a whole, so be apprised of that
