Author Noam Chomsky, whose three-year-old book shot to the top of the Amazon.com bestseller list after Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez touted it at the United Nations, reportedly said he would like to meet Chavez.
"I would be happy to meet him," said Chomsky according to the New York Times.
The American author told the Times he received "10,000 e-mails" after Chavez recommended his 2003 book "Hegemony or Survival" in remarks before the United Nations General Assembly.
Chavez made headlines this week for railing against US "imperialism" in the eyebrow-raising speech.
Chomsky, 77, told the newspaper he would not use the same words -- "alcoholic," "sick man" and "tyrant" -- that Chavez used to describe President George W. Bush.
But he said he understood where the Venezuelan president was coming from.

Chomsky, 77, told the newspaper he would not use the same words -- But he said he understood where the Venezuelan president was coming from.Of course. The gibbering senile idiot couldn't remember the "same words" long enough to commit them to memory, but he recognized the thoughts he had when he was twelve.

And I'm sure that being the good socialist that he is Chomsky will give all the money that he makes from the book (or should I say 'property of the people') to the government to be used for the poor, needy, downtrodden people.
LOL. I'm cracking myself up here.

Pol-Pot Noam Chomsky and Chavez propaganda will be taken to new and frequently perverse levels. Look for a new "Triumph of Will" propaganda film from the democrats.

Chumpsky and Chavez are turds of a feather. Remember: The only good Red, is a dead Red.

I listened to C-Span this morning concerning this subject. Isn't is sick that the Democrats don't see this as a wake up call? They truly are Communist bastards, enemies of our United States.

Actually, both Chavez and Chomsky are extreme narcissists.
