ddaly1 you are too good for YaleEsquire. none of his points are valid and they are all completely illogical. he says that chomsky supports terrorist bombing when in this very video he says he doesnt. and YaleEsquire's response is: "hey man, i know the qu'ran...you have to read between the lines". read between noam chomsky's lines? u have to be kidding me! YaleEsquire if u knew anything about chomsky you'd know he believes american SOCIETY is in good shape; it's US foreign policy he criticises.

My friend, you have to read between the lines. People say alot of things, but you can judge them according to their philosophical ideals if you know from their history where he/she stood. I grew up with these terrorist bastards, I know what the Quran (satanic verses) teaches; thus i know what I'm talking about, but Mr. Chomsky doesn't. Liberals in general are very gullible, they are easily swayed because they substitute wisdom with a kind heart; which is a prescription for disaster.

So you're claiming to be more knowledgeable that one of the greatest living intellectuals? really, you know what you're talking? are you sure you are not just claiming to know based on your own subjective experiences? not to mention the ridiculous generalizations you make about "liberals." By the way, when you say "liberal" what do you mean exactly? Chomsky, a libertarian socialist, is far to the left of what's considered "liberal" in our American political discourse.

Even great intellectuals aren't immuned to error. Why don't you stop and think for yourself, you have no mind of your own. Why doesn't Mr. Chomsky and other liberals like yourself leave this country! You hate America so much like your brainwashed spiritual father, then why are you here! Planes are leaving every hour on the hour, get on one. Pin-head doesn't begin to discribe people like Chomsky and you. You are not a patriot. thus, leave this country, we woun't miss you. Pin-head.

First of all, nobody is claiming anyone is infallible. I simply compared his depth of knowledge on the subject to yours. Again with this "liberal" label. FYI, I don't consider myself a "liberal." People like me don't "hate America" (by America I guess you simply mean the government & the powers that be) we would like to see them improved & don't blindly follow & obey whatever the government tells us, unlike you w/ your pinhead/patriot dichotomy-- in that o'reilly crowd i'm guessing?...

I don't know why I even bother to waste my time with pin-headed/air-headed liberals like you. You are brainwashed to the core. I guess bacuase I care too much. We can agree to disagree, however, it is not too late for you to wake up and stop believing everything any body says. Until you get what I'm trying to say, you are a threat to this country. People with a mind set of Chomsky are too dangerous to ignore; you fall in this category. A Marxist radical hiding behinde democracy.

"stop believing everything any body says" yeah, that makes a lot of sense.
Probably the only thing you've said that I would agree with: this conversation is going nowhere and a waste of both our times.
I simply pointed out how you misrepresented someone's views (in this case Chomsky's)- "i guess b/c i care too much" & felt obligated to correct you- and you proceeded to make a ton of assumptions & ad hominem attacks w/ absolutely no basis...
and if anyone needs to wake up, it certainly isn't me
