Source:TVO- Professor Noam Chomsky, talking to Canadian talk show host Allan Gregg, about American foreign policy. |
Originally from Allen Gregg
What I like and respect about Noam Chomsky, is what I like and respect about Ron Paul, or William F. Buckley, or Bernie Sanders, Ayn Rand: not their political philosophy, necessarily, but their commitment to it and their honesty.
You don't have to agree with someone to view them as a good, honest, and decent person. Perhaps the main problem with American politics and probably why we have 3-5 American voters who aren't a member of either the two political parties, is that politicians and political activists, as well as commentators that view the other side and even people in their own party as the enemy and not as just political opponents, as well immoral people.
I disagree with Professor Noam Chomsky on most economic and foreign policy issues, but I respect his intelligence and ability to communicate exactly what he believes and why he believes it.
