Anyways, leave to an idiot like Putin to make an international hero of this guy.
Splendid article this morning in counterpunch by Paul Street. To sum up, whether you're licking America's imperialist boots or Russia's imperialist boots (if there was ever a pathetic wannabe, it's Putin's Russia), you're a... bootlicker.

Chomsky trivia: I recall watching a video on YouTube, not too old, maybe a few years old at most, where Chomsky was giving one of his trademark tirades against the United States: America bad this, America bad that. So, come to the end, the interviewer asks Chomsky that if America is so bad and evil why do you still live in the United States? Chomsky's reply: because America is still the greatest country in the world. No joke, that is what he said -- may God strike me with a coffee/caffeine intolerance if I am lying. And I must say that his reply rankled me -- like what, Canada is chopped liver or something!
