“I don’t usually admire Sarah Palin, but when she was making fun of this ‘hopey-changey’ stuff, she was right,” said the MIT linguistics professor. “There was nothing there.”

“[Y]ou’re looking at Obama’s programs, the part that really did surprise me—and I don’t, frankly, understand it—is his attack on civil liberties, which is extreme,” said Chomsky. “He’s gone beyond Bush.”

“There are others that are pretty bad, too, like the attack on whistleblowers. As I’m sure you know, more whistleblowers have been under attack by this administration than all of American history put together,” he noted. “This is an attempt to strengthen executive power and executive privilege, keeping secret from the population.”
