- rjwusa, on 05/14/2008, -22/+64Noam Chomsky may be a well qualified political or foreign policy advisor in an Obama administration.
- yonoz, on 05/15/2008, -3/+11I thought his only qualifications were in the field of linguistics.
- lucidguru, on 05/14/2008, -46/+13I don't necessarily think it's dishonesty, however I wouldn't say Chomsky is correct about everything he preaches. Nevertheless the criticism sparks intellectual debate which is rare in politics today.
- Glynth, on 05/14/2008, -7/+42Outright fabrications and hatred spark "debate," you say? What it should spark is shunning of the extreme liar and hate-monger. This only goes to show that the Far Left has way too much influence. ... But I'm anti-free-speech for saying that, right? No, actually, I'm not. I'm simply saying if people were more informed and wise, Chomsky would be roundly denounced, not celebrated.
- lucidguru, on 05/14/2008, -25/+8My feeling about Chomsky is that he argues ideals and philosophy. So what if they are left? I don't agree with everything he says, nor do I agree with everything ANY political party says. This is politics, but I would rather see valid points argued than name calling... I guess people don't agree.
- foopirata, on 05/14/2008, -5/+32I am sorry, lucidguru, I would agree completely with you weren't it for the fact that Chomsky finds it appropriate to use his "world genius" clout to speak about issues he doesn't really know much about, and was documented in the process of fabricating talking points.
I believe a philosopher has the duty to confront the norms, but to do so in the framework of truth, not in a web of intangibles.
- foopirata, on 05/14/2008, -5/+32I am sorry, lucidguru, I would agree completely with you weren't it for the fact that Chomsky finds it appropriate to use his "world genius" clout to speak about issues he doesn't really know much about, and was documented in the process of fabricating talking points.

- pitlord, on 05/14/2008, -24/+54This is a helpful resource for anyone looking to uncover the hypocrisy of the libtard "elite."
(8^D- Cayfox, on 06/03/2008, -3/+3Translation: "I can't do my own thinking, I don't understand a word Chomsky says and find him intellectually intimidating, so here's a cookie-cutter argument I can just copy paste whenever someone disagrees with me."
You're an idiot. A mindless, bellicose idiot.- chaimke, on 09/25/2008, -0/+1"You're an idiot. A mindless, bellicose idiot."
You obviously looked in the mirror as you wrote that!
- chaimke, on 09/25/2008, -0/+1"You're an idiot. A mindless, bellicose idiot."

- EIderofzion, on 05/14/2008, -13/+44Before making ***** up about Bush was a fad Chompsky actually did some work against Islamo Nazi's in East Timor, But most Democrats wouldn't know where East Timor was on a map anyways.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -30/+8Hey dumbass, most Americans wouldn't know where East Timor is. It's not a red vs. blue thing. It's a retarded American thing.
- musleypope, on 05/14/2008, -6/+6I'm not really sure why people are digging him down, I don't think that most democrats or republicans could find east timor on a map. Guess he could have been less of an ass about it though.
- wpi97, on 05/14/2008, -1/+19"Guess he could have been less of an ass about it though."
That's exactly why he is being dugg down.
- wpi97, on 05/14/2008, -1/+19"Guess he could have been less of an ass about it though."
- EIderofzion, on 05/15/2008, -1/+6I'm pretty confident Democrats know A WHOLE ***** LESS about parts of the world like South Thailand, India, Cashmere, , Bali, Somalia, Kenya, Madrid, Beslan, East Timor, Serbia, and the Sudan than any of the Republicans. why else would they be in complete denial of the global jihad?
- musleypope, on 05/14/2008, -6/+6I'm not really sure why people are digging him down, I don't think that most democrats or republicans could find east timor on a map. Guess he could have been less of an ass about it though.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -28/+7I love getting dugg down by losers who haven't the nutz to really debate a topic.
- Stevanoski, on 05/14/2008, -8/+23waaaaaa waaaaaaaah
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -22/+5That's right, show your true stupidity.
- wpi97, on 05/14/2008, -3/+26Us losers still haven't mastered the sophisticated debating technique of calling the population of an entire country retarded, not to mention the brilliant "hey dumbass" argument. Since we are too stupid to have a discussion at your level, we'll just have to digg you down.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -28/+10You dumb *****. I'm American. I called you a retarded American for expecting others to know where East Timor is in the first ***** place. ***** you, and your Rush ass sucking.
- wpi97, on 05/14/2008, -4/+28Now that's what I call really debating a topic!
- vault, on 05/14/2008, -4/+29Your 'arguments' on this thread are "***** tard," "***** you," "ass sucking," "retarded American," etc. and you think that's a 'debate' ?
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -20/+3No, you ***** hole. That's the tactic that your kind use so well. I thought I'd give you at taste of it.
- flip2trip, on 05/14/2008, -1/+16You're the only one using those tactics.
- Qong, on 05/15/2008, -1/+12Good show wynja. Keep up the food fight; using your massive intellect and advanced debating techniques.
- 4wheel, on 05/15/2008, -1/+9Wynia is just pissed because everything she stands for is based on lies. She calls herself an American, but doesn't realize she doesn't know what that means. You may live here Wynia, but you're not even close to an American. You're too retarded to be an American.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -28/+10You dumb *****. I'm American. I called you a retarded American for expecting others to know where East Timor is in the first ***** place. ***** you, and your Rush ass sucking.
- Stevanoski, on 05/14/2008, -8/+23waaaaaa waaaaaaaah
- Cayfox, on 06/03/2008, -7/+3You can't spell Chomsky's name, you hamfistedly conflate theocratic Islam with National Socialism, and you seem confused about Indonesia's involvement in East Timor and the thrust of Chomsky's criticism... I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume you don't know what you're talking about.
P.S. I'm a Democrat, and I can find East Timor on a map. Can you?- Glynth, on 06/06/2008, -1/+6That's showing them! Come into the thread half a month later, ignore the facts presented, and instead focus on personal attacks! Keep up the good work, comrade!
- chaimke, on 09/25/2008, -0/+1I have the misfortune of being related to Noam, Chompski is a truer, more deserving spelling if you didn't recognioze it, there is obviously something wrong with you
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -30/+8Hey dumbass, most Americans wouldn't know where East Timor is. It's not a red vs. blue thing. It's a retarded American thing.
- wpi97, on 05/14/2008, -16/+62Chomsky should have stuck to linguistics. He is not an economist. He is not a political scientist. He is not a sociologist. Yet in the minds of many people he has become the final authority on economics, politics, and even ethics. I guess people just have a need to create idols for themselves.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -30/+11Just like listening to pill popping Rush and Jerry Farwell tell us how the world works.
- wpi97, on 05/14/2008, -4/+32I don't listen to Rush (Limbaugh, I assume), and up until now I did not know who Jerry Farwell was. What is your point?
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -21/+5Don't lie. It makes you look bad. If you don't know who Jerry Farwell is, then you need to take a current events class before you engage in grownup discussions.
- vault, on 05/14/2008, -4/+22At least spell the name correctly, wynja.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -25/+2falwell farwell, who gives a *****. he's as ***** stupid as you are.
- animalwheeler, on 05/14/2008, -1/+21And you think you shine intellectual brilliance??????
Not from the posts I just got done reading.
And unfortunately for you, ya can't shine a turd.- animalwheeler, on 05/15/2008, -0/+5ah, crap. I come back this morning and realize I put this in the wrong reply.
I meant to reply to wynja's brilliant debate comments.
- animalwheeler, on 05/15/2008, -0/+5ah, crap. I come back this morning and realize I put this in the wrong reply.
- InRussetShadows, on 05/15/2008, -1/+5If he doesn't know who Falwell is, it's because Falwell has about that much relevance to his world. Who can blame him? The guy was a spent force in conservativism after the decline in importance of the Moral Majority. Not only that, but he's been dead for more than a year now. You apparently don't even know that because you talked about him in the present tense!
- 4wheel, on 05/15/2008, -1/+12The article is about the lies of Chomsky. Please try to keep up.
- wpi97, on 05/14/2008, -4/+32I don't listen to Rush (Limbaugh, I assume), and up until now I did not know who Jerry Farwell was. What is your point?
- macweirdo42, on 05/14/2008, -7/+12Maybe, but.. His work on linguistics still pretty much rocks hardcore.
- wpi97, on 05/14/2008, -2/+18As I said, he should have stuck to that. Go with what you know...
- InRussetShadows, on 05/15/2008, -2/+10His work in linguistics was good for its time, but the field has moved on.
- chaimke, on 09/25/2008, -0/+1Which is why he's desperately trying to make his mark in anything else, like political thought
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -30/+11Just like listening to pill popping Rush and Jerry Farwell tell us how the world works.
- BECoole, on 05/14/2008, -16/+45Dugg, favorited.
- ozymandias2012, on 05/14/2008, -17/+33Chomsky's a classic ivory tower intellectual. Big ideas, not to many practical solutions.
- davidmesaaz, on 05/14/2008, -11/+35Chomsky is good at criticizing but but offers few if any plausible solutions....
- yellowcakewalk, on 05/14/2008, -29/+16Excellent collection of Noam Chomsky videos at
http://www.youtube.com/chomskyan- Kent4jmj, on 05/15/2008, -3/+4Sorry about the negative diggs. Looks like your trying to help
- DanThePainter, on 05/14/2008, -13/+36This page is newly bookmarked in the Reference Folder of my Bookmarks. Thank You BottledSunshine.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -33/+25Buried as inaccurate. I couldn't even get past the Top 10 Lies as they are taken out of context and only show one side of the argument. I'll just take the first argument and refute it. Imagine if I took the time to refute all the BS in this pdf:
The Lie: “in comparison to the conditions imposed by US tyranny and violence, East Europe under Russian rule was practically a paradise.”
The Truth: The communists murdered 4 million people in the Ukraine; 753,000 in Poland; 360,000 in Romania; 300,000 in Belarus; 300,000 in Hungary; 100,000 in East Germany; 100,000 in Lithuania; 70,000-100,000 in Yugoslavia; 30,000-40,000 in Bulgaria; 20,000 in
Czechoslovakia; and 5,000 in Albania. Other atrocities included the murder of over 500,000 POWs in Soviet captivity and the mass rape of at least 2 million women by the Red Army.
The Real Truth: The US is currently responsible for 1 million+ civilian deaths in Iraq. The US was responsible for 1.4 million military personal dead in Vietnam, and 2 million civilian casualties. WWII - 2 million Japanese dead including the only use of atomic weapons not on military installations but on civilian population centers. Not to mention the burning to the ground of Tokyo with incendiary devices. I could go on and on with this.
The point is that the US isn't the gleaming bastion of human rights that you people would like to claim, so you try to tear down a good man that likes to point out the flaws in capitalism.
You Repulicronnies are 10 times worse on digg than the Obamanatics or the Paulites. It's one big circle jerk to try and push something to the front page, and digg everyone down whom you don't agree with in the threads.- bluto36, on 05/14/2008, -9/+35yes and remember that it was the US that caused the famine in Cambodia the killed the 1.5 to 3 million there.
you also forgot that the US caused the conditions that made Mao killed between 30 to 75 million there
also the US made Russia killed up to 20 million there not just 4 million
and the US has killed 78 gigocraptasticbazillion in Iraq not just a mere tiny 1 million. get our made up statistics right will you
http://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/NOTE5.HTM
http://www.monstersandcritics.com/news/usa/news/ar ...- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -23/+9Your debating apples and oranges, you dumb *****. Chomsky's point is that Americans should not throw rocks for they live in a house of glass.
- bluto36, on 05/14/2008, -5/+23hey ass, Chomsky is the one who blamed America for the "Famine" in Cambodia and the purges of Mao.
/and the 1million deaths in iraq is just another blame America wet dream. now go get a wet nap and clean up your mess- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -19/+3Actually, it's the World Bank and IMF that are responsible for Cambodia's woes, and if you didn't know they are extensions of the Federal Reserve Bank which rules this land with an iron fist.
- bluto36, on 05/14/2008, -1/+20so the world bank made the killing fields and then made Cambodia lie (Chomsky too) and say it was due to a make believe famine?
wow and all this time i thought it was the Khmer Rogue that systematically purged itself of 1.5 to 3 million enemies of the state.
/ i guess your comment means the apples and oranges was a stupid and wrong comment? it takes a big gay man to admit he was wrong. good job! (not that there is anything wrong with that)
- bluto36, on 05/14/2008, -5/+23hey ass, Chomsky is the one who blamed America for the "Famine" in Cambodia and the purges of Mao.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -23/+9Your debating apples and oranges, you dumb *****. Chomsky's point is that Americans should not throw rocks for they live in a house of glass.
- vault, on 05/14/2008, -7/+34Don't worry, wynja...even with all these refuted points I'm sure you can still find some Chomsky quotes to rephrase and use in your digg arguments without giving credit and then claim an original thought. Seems to be par for the course among digg's ultra ultra far left...salivating over anything defiant, critical of authority, and coming from Chomsky/Ward Churchill.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -27/+9Oh, I didn't quote anything Chomsky has said, you ***** tard. I quoted wikipedia. Of course, that's all just liberal lies too isn't it. I'm also a registered REPUBLICAN!!!! So ***** you and your labels. My ***** point is that Chomsky might be left wing, but he brings up good points that you obviously can't ***** handle. For instance, the fact that America is directly or indirectly responsible for as many deaths as the Soviet Union. The only difference is America pretends it isn't and the Soviet Union embraced it's dark side.
- vault, on 05/14/2008, -5/+27lol
You call us "Republicronnies," bash capitalism, defend Noam Chomsky, and you want us to believe you're a registered Republican? lol
Maybe I had you all wrong...being ultra far left is the least of your problems, you're really just a compulsive liar.- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -23/+5I didn't bash capitalism. I said Chomsky likes to point out it's flaws. No governmental philosophy is without it's flaws. Capitalism happens to be the best thing we flawed humans have managed so far. Don't be putting words in my mouth. I am sadden that my party has been hijacked by idiots that are more concerned with making gay marriage and abortions illegal than with balancing the budget and staying our asses out of other people wars. Republicronnie is a term I coined in my disgust for people that call themselves Conservatives today. You sir are the one that should be ashamed of yourself for buying into the neocon empire building pipe dream for it will conserve nothing and leave your children and grandchildren with even less.
- JohnReb, on 05/15/2008, -1/+10Capitalism is not a governmental philosophy, it is an economic system.
- bluto36, on 05/14/2008, -4/+25oh your a republican? i thought you were just an ass.
/if you were not such a girl throwing a hissy fit, someone may point out that it is the indirectly responsible crap that Chomsky either lies about or exaggerates. it is also the sugar coating of all communist deaths that makes Chomsky a tool. but since you are such a hole i will just laugh at you and your 8 year old trembling tantrum.- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -23/+3The only hole here is your mouth gobbling on my nutz. I'd have a logical conversation with the idiots on this thread, but that would be counter productive, because you all fail at logic.
- bluto36, on 05/14/2008, -3/+19"you all fail at logic"
says the guy wanting to have gay sex. not that that would be counter productive or anything.
- cloak419, on 05/14/2008, -3/+20As soon as you call someone a *****, and use the word "*****", you have lost all credibility in your argument, and respect.
Sorry, *****.- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -21/+3I'm sorry you don't like the English language. You should learn Chinese and go experience how great it is to live in an empire that is without a Constitution before you vote another Constitutional Traitor into office.
- bluto36, on 05/14/2008, -3/+20so making up words is now English? well that is how Chomsky would do it. at least you are getting back on subject.
- vault, on 05/14/2008, -5/+27lol
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -27/+9Oh, I didn't quote anything Chomsky has said, you ***** tard. I quoted wikipedia. Of course, that's all just liberal lies too isn't it. I'm also a registered REPUBLICAN!!!! So ***** you and your labels. My ***** point is that Chomsky might be left wing, but he brings up good points that you obviously can't ***** handle.

The only difference is America pretends it isn't and the Soviet Union embraced it's dark side.
- wpi97, on 05/14/2008, -5/+30Too bad the old USSR is gone. It would have been very educational for both Chomsky and wynia to live in that "paradise" for a few years as regular Soviet citizens.
- wynja, on 05/14/2008, -25/+5Dumbass, no one is saying that the Soviet Union was a fun place to live. Although, I'd take it any day over the neocon "paradise" that is Iraq. I think we should ship your sorry ass over to Iraq to see how your foreign policy dream of "The New American Century" is going. In fact, we'll ship all the neocon Constitutional Traitors over to Iraq and let our poor troops come home.
- PolishLogic, on 05/14/2008, -1/+18Yes because the USSR killing its own people who are living under it's blanket during essentially peace-time conditions is nowhere near as horrible as people who die when two countries are engaging in war....
Really? So we were essentially more evil than the Nazis during World War II. Yes, that sounds rational.
/facepalm - tyho, on 07/01/2008, -0/+3War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
John Stuart Mill (1806 - 1873)
- bluto36, on 05/14/2008, -9/+35yes and remember that it was the US that caused the famine in Cambodia the killed the 1.5 to 3 million there.
- jcroisant4, on 05/14/2008, -9/+8Chomsky, Chomsky, Chomsky! . . . I knew I should have checked out those LOL Catz instead!
- swrostmore, on 05/14/2008, -24/+15Hilarious, is this sad collection of blogs really the best "debunking" of Chomsky the wingnuts can put together? No digg for you!
- glennkachmar, on 05/14/2008, -26/+9More zionist proaganda on Digg - BURIED!
- 4wheel, on 05/15/2008, -1/+7What? If it's not a lie that supports all the other lies you believe, you can't stand it? You should read each and every link. It might do you some good.
- mellomeh, on 05/14/2008, -23/+9Paul Bogdanor 'truths' consist of many fallacies and the kinds of distortions that he claims Chomsky is guilty of. Take for example 'lie' no. 2 on page 42:
"I see no antisemitic implications in denial of the existance of gas chambers, or even denial of the holocaust."
What's clearly meant by that is somebody may be a holocaust denier without being antisemitic, that the two can be mutually exclusive. Bogdanor 'debunks' this by stating that "the idea of denying the existence of gas chambers and the Holocaust was the brainchild of antisemites and neo-Nazi activists," which completely misses the point.
Buried. - beevbo, on 05/14/2008, -21/+10I'll be honest, I didn't read much of this article, but from what I did read website itself comes off as a trash-the-left propaganda site. Hard to trust facts that come from such angry sentiments.
- 4wheel, on 05/15/2008, -1/+5But all the "trash the right" sites are SOOO good to you. Hypocrite.
- mustafya, on 05/14/2008, -6/+29Good stuff, Chomsky is one of the true libtards today.
- yellowcakewalk, on 05/15/2008, -14/+3How much do you know about Noam Chomsky?
http://www.youtube.com/chomskyan- 4wheel, on 05/15/2008, -1/+11That he's a liar and makes ***** up. Just like you.
- yellowcakewalk, on 05/15/2008, -14/+3How much do you know about Noam Chomsky?
- Qong, on 05/15/2008, -4/+21Chomsky has been saying all sorts of insane things for years now. I can't believe that anyone takes him seriously. If you honestly read any of his political work or respect his opinion in any way, you're ignorantly listening to propaganda and are most certainly being led down the wrong path in your political life.
You Chomsky fans need to try thinking for yourselves, instead of letting some powerful "intellectual" tell you what to think. - yellowcakewalk, on 05/15/2008, -19/+8Funny to read the comments from all these douche bags that know nothing about Noam Chomsky. Maybe they should learn, they would not look so damn idiotic. http://www.youtube.com/chomskyan
- SuperVepr308, on 05/15/2008, -3/+14The fact that you prop this idiot up says volumes about your mental state.
- ZenaTWQ, on 05/15/2008, -3/+17Great resources...bookmarked and shared.
- InRussetShadows, on 05/15/2008, -5/+20The Left is in rare form. Because someone rebuts Chomsky, then Rush or Falwell is bad, or the blog author is stupid, or the blog author is not important enough, or...When people use in a string of ad hominem arguments, it's proof positive that they have been exposed and embarrassed. The blog is chock-full of links to book reviews, books, PDFs, articles, and so on. That's angry? I see. That's not enough? I see. At least come up with better arguments, folks.
- coonass, on 05/20/2008, -4/+11The last, only good work Noam Chomsky did was in linguistics. Since then he's been uncannily capable of finding the wrong side of any argument (except the East Timor thing). I'm shocked and amazed that he hasn't been looked up yet by a victim of one of the tyrannies he's led the cheerleading section for. So many people owe him so many kicks in the balls.
- gevurah, on 06/24/2008, -8/+2I can't believe the amount of psuedo-intellectual drivel in this comment section. It is apparant that perhaps 10% of people commenting have ever read anything by Chomsky and the other 90% are forwarding simple ad hominem attacks on the man with no substantiating arguement.
Call me libtard or what you will. I think you all need to reasses your objectivity, and take another look at Chomsky. Read some Howard Zinn while you are at it, that is if you can read.
