Chomsky is on point when he discusses problems in the media, he's wonderful on giving timeline summaries of foreign policy disasters, BUT, when he says things like "voter fraud is a distraction, a side issue" and goes on to say the "elections never took place," he becomes shady.
Chomsky wanted people to vote for Kerry, as if that would make a difference. If he's an anarchist, why would he encourage voting? If he really wants systemic change, why not want fraudulent episodes (voter fraud, 9/11, jim crow laws in Florida) exposed to the fullest.
