thanks for the vid, is there a part 3 or does the interview just end like that?

[RealAgentOfSHIELD]

No there's more ... I was only able to rip part of the show

welcome to American TV. We deal with supercomplicated issues by having usually 6 pple in split-screen yelling for 3 minutes, followed by 6 minutes of Viagra and detergent commericals. This show is a lot clamer and more reasonable

I like Donohue, but the guy does often open his mouth before thinking.

Thanks for posting this great bit of tv history.

Sorry, I think Donahue was right on this one.

[Rubashow]

I think the style of this discussion is very pleasant. There is still room above but if you compare this to today TV-discussions it seems like ancient history.

THE REAL REASON WE FOUGHT HITLER FROM THE 8TH MOST QUOTED PERSON OFF ALL TIME AND THE MUSIC CUTS HIM OFF AHAHAHAA PERFECT

Back in the days when CNBC actually had interesting programming.

Donahue was good enough for the MSM. Pozner and Chomsky were good enough for cable. Yet now, Donahue's retired. Pozner's program on Channel 1 in Russia is WAY better than the cable shows here. And Chomsky is now officially in MSM exile.

Can it get any weirder....

He meant that the French and British declared war on Germany after they invaded Poland but did nothing. The Allies did not enter the war to stop radical German acts (concentration camps etc). They merely defended themselves against German attacks and only fully entered the war in it's last 11 months (June 1944) when it was abundantly clear that Germany would fall to the Russians. So moral condemnation is useless without action. Hitler did as he pleased right under the Allies noses.

"You can condemn the attrocities of Ghenghis Khan but you can't do anything about them."

That's because it was 800 years ago, the crimes of the Serbs are occuring right now so we can do something about them! What a stupid analogy. Chomsky ain't shit.

Donahue sure is hysterical

is his usual response to a problem to just start bombing?
