I love this interview. Whenever Chomsky is interviewed by anyone from the more mainstream sector it devolves in him explaining the facts to them first. The reason is is the facts are not a part of the national discussion, they are deliberately kept out. So usually it goes Noam says something that sounds absolutely fucking crazy. The interviewer goes "Holy shit what?!" and then introduces and logical point or established knowledge that should completely destroy his argument. Noam counters with the actual facts, usually citing a great source for the facts which you can obviously check (I have never found him to be wrong in his citations). Then Noam usually a basic principle of how things should operate, and using his facts compares that to what people either believe or how things are operating. It's really interesting to watch.

It should be noted that Chomsky has only been on Charlie Rose twice ever. This is the first time in 2003. In 2007 he was asked back, but interestingly Charlie Rose wasn't there, some slimey, creepy looking guy interviewed him instead. He got a bit hostile but Chomsky is used to that and made his points very steadily and cogently.

We'll lose him one day, for now I certainly enjoy him while he's here, and I'm hoping others with sprout up in his wake.

I agree with pretty much everything except that I'd LOVE to debate against this Jones character. I mean, you don't even have to say anything and you win the argument.

Honestly. Honestly answer me this. Who would you be more comfortable with as your next door neighbour. Slimey Morgan or this nutjob Jones with his gun collection.

Smart enough not to be fooled to vote for that POS Obama.>> ^Yogi:

Ewww ... there's "Slimey Kreme" coming out of his NOSE! =o/

DAMN Nature! YOU slimey!

but also live with himself when he clearly knows what a horrible seedy little man he is.

I doubt he realises or cares how much of a piece of shit he is. He sounds very similar to the reasonings of an xbox hacker I had read about a while back. Unrepentant and utterly ignorant of the fact he's a slimey, piece of shit scumbag that should crawl into a hole to stay so we never have to deal with him ever again.

Also, notice how he always mentions "You being in all the movies... making 5 million pound a movie... you got all these houses..." sounds he's just bitter that he's not in movies or something

Steve is absolutely right in THIS case the "journalists" have nothing they can do to defend themselves. Listening to a private citizens messages is indefensible. However the guy defending the press makes ONE good point about the Freedom of the press, it's a point that shouldn't be ignored even if he's a slimey piece of shit. I don't know what the answer is at this point but I guess it's to have the public smack the press down whenever something like this happens and maybe they won't do it.

it's funny that pirs is suddenly a religeous man who will speak out now he's in the USA. I never heard him say anything like that over here where being religeous isn't a box to tick to be popular.

You can keep the slimey b*stard as your punishment for stealing High Laurie

being as I am a recovering addict myself. I thought about outing myself, but the bulk of their comments reflected disgust....

No wonder I've always perceived you as shellfish. It all makes sense now, the fishy smell, the slimey scales on your clothes, your love of raw vagina. As @GenjiKilpatrick or @RadHazG would say, you're a shellfish bastard!!!

Yeah once you get accustomed to the voice there is actually some fun content here. I for one LOVE First Contact despite the many flaws in the story. The borg queen was a really stupid idea, if you ask me. The faceless, personality free borg as force of nature is much more awe-inspiring.



I've always thought that too. The way I think of it there were two distinct versions of the borg, the grey borg (the original), and the green borg (this movie plus all the crap that happened in voyager).

What made the borg scary in the first place was not just that they were powerful mechano-corpse people, but that they were inscrutable. There is something unsettling about an emotionless and relentless enemy that cannot be reasoned with or manipulated. And you couldn't easily define them as evil, since they weren't vengeful or malicious, just devoted to their own form of logic. With this movie they got rid of everything that was distinctive or interesting about the borg. And just turned them into cyber-zombies at the command of some slimey lich queen.

too slimey looking

When your targets are a bunch of slimey, cowardly, no-good terrorists who hide among civilian populations then what do you think is going to happen?


Silly me, I forgot that the good and courageous kill civilians and spread terror with warplanes, not rockets. Oh Israeli government, you're so hard to tell apart from Hamas these days. I have to count the death toll just to figure out who's who; American made bombs are much more efficient at murdering children.
