although i dont agree with Buckley's views he is a fascinating character i might adopt his speach and conduct when im talking down to someone just to piss them off.
-
I don't think anyone was "owned" during this intriguing debate. Both made good points. It's amazing how charming Buckley can be while challenging someone with an opposing viewpoint. Being able to intelligently debate a matter without descending into ad hominem attacks or emotional rants has become even more a rarity in today's political climate. I wish we had more programs like this.

Damn chomsky owned him, but good debate overall.
-
American conservatism went from William Buckley to Bill O'Reilly. O' how the mighty have fallen
-
Chomsky is correct that there were no Russian advisors in greece. There were, however, sattelite advisors (such as Bulgaria, and arguably, Yugoslavia and Albania)
-
He didn't even say "justifiable. Rather, "disinterested".
Buckly was being silly
-
@evenstrength Indeed.. his willingness to even grant the plausibility of some of Chomsky's premises places him far to the left of today's conservative pundits.
-
@joeh7773 No he doesn't. Chomsky uses facts to support his arguments and demolish his opponent's. Then Buckley cracks a lame and, as Chomsky points out, irrelevant joke to deflect the pressure on him. He proceeds to tell Chomsky than he is choosing his starting points to suit his own argument, but provides not a singly example to support this ridiculous accusation. How pathetic.

So what you will about Buckley. We would benefit if contemporary conservatives conducted themselves like he did. He's much brighter, more eloquent, and open minded than the lunatics today.

Buckley is a pretentious buffoon. Like a cheap American facsimile of supercilious English toff. If you write down his mutterings they make no sense whatsoever.
