Boring Lefties

[Colin Brace]

How come there has been no mention of  Michael Moore and Barbara
Ehrenreich in this thread? Both have had bestsellers the past year in the
US -- or is this east/west coast folk buying copies for each other? 

Say what you like about Moore -- he is a lefty and he is not boring...

There is a new anthology, Understanding Power, which is 400+ pages of
transcriptions of just such encounters. I find in many ways Chomsky at his
best (thanks in large part to the two hardworking editors of this volume).
