[...]This was to be expected, he said, and was a small price to pay for the positive outcomes of the new government of Pol Pot[...] Chomsky cited a book by two American left-wing authors, Gareth Porter and George Hildebrand, who had \u201cpresented a carefully documented study of the destructive American impact on Cambodia and the success of the Cambodian revolutionaries in overcoming it, giving a very favorable picture of their programs and policies.\u201d-\r\n\r\nI like to check out things for myself.","author":"Sheepdog","parent_id":61209,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-10-12 22:31:54","modified":"2013-11-11 00:26:43","fileurl":""},{"id":88488,"heading":"True","article":"He doesn't deserve the attention he gets, I only intervene here because I'm concerned that his cynical propaganda will destroy the lives of talented young people with a lot to offer to society.\r\n\r\nChumpsky is a cynical manipulator of the truth but of course those who are older and wiser see that he reveals himself as a charlatan by what he chooses to omit from his account of history.\r\n\r\nHe's a bad man, because he's intelligent enough to know that he's doing wrong, but not clever enough to stop himself from going over the edge into untruth. \r\n\r\nHe's a bitter little man driven by envy and hatred and he doen't care how many young lives he wrecks along the way.","author":"Barney","parent_id":61209,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-10-13 00:22:21","modified":"2003-10-13 00:22:21","fileurl":""},{"id":88491,"heading":"ahh, I thought so...","article":"so the quote from Chomsky was bogus and there is no reference.\r\nTypical smoke.\r\nBut hey, you've got monkeyboy on your side (assuming you are different individuals) to couple your IQ into some greater than your shoe size.\r\nOh no!\r\nI'm attacking the carrier pigions...","author":"Sheepdog","parent_id":61209,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-10-13 01:13:42","modified":"2003-10-13 01:13:42","fileurl":""},{"id":88492,"heading":"Nothing bogus here, sheepdog","article":"Your mentor Chumpsky is on record defending the slaughter committed by Pol Pot, comparing it to postwar France, oddly enough.\r\n\r\nDid you like the article?
