Noam Chomsky
If you're worried about the deficit, pay attention to the fact that it's almost all attributable to military spending and the totally dysfunctional health program.
Noam Chomsky
The Russians were doing a lot of rotten things, you can point to them.

But somehow this sells and is continually repeated, at least in this kind of situation.
Noam Chomsky
