Can I ask in what way?
Array ( 1 month ago by mopsius)
Sure.
In Chinese--until recently at least--S-P is just one subset of many.
That is just one aspect.
Interestingly enough the mainland Chinese, without knowing it, are actually changing Chinese grammar to fit Chomsky.
The Chinese Chomskyites, therefore, are in a hilarious recursion to some very large degree.

This brilliant, unbiased, non-partisan individual is refreshing. Sticks and stones...

I think I missed the part of Vidal that is non-partisan. Thank goodness he was honest about the degeneration of The New York Times and the loss of journalistic objectivity in the News, as a whole. That much was unbiased. Yet, he then fails to define the original definition of "liberal" correctly & that was disingenuous of him. But, strangely enough, he did manage to debunk the usefulness of Political Correctness, despite having built his career upon it.

What a phenomenal piece of humanity that this man represents. It makes a little bit more proud to be a human.

I don't like Bush, but he is an easy scapegoat and you should look deeper. The Iraq Liberation Act which called for and legitimised the Iraq war was signed by Clinton in 1998. The political elite of both parties had already decided to "regime change" Iraq well before G W was president.
