What Chomsky say to you in some casual conversation is not exactly the best venue for him to express a nuanced position on politics. But perhaps it is time to knock Chomsky off his big pedestal and point out that even the great Chomsky is a human who is capable of saying stupid things and taking dumb ass positions.


> And why Munson feels a need to mischaracterize my politics is beyond me. I am obviously not a liberal. Munson is obviously an anarchist, and I would feel no need to say otherwise. It's just that he is also obviously a fool.

Speaking of fools, how about somebody who looks like a communist/socialist/whatever and stumps for the Democratic War Party? Does your vision of social change involve electing rich Democrats into office every four years? Wouldn't that be called 'liberalism'?

Hopefully I've given you something to blog about so you can tell us about it and thus waste one instance of your daily quota of LBO posts.
