The Christian right continues to amaze me with their vile potion of ethnocentrism, fear, and reactionary hatred. As a Christian, I just want to clarify for anyone who may be wondering: this sort of fear/war-mongering is about as far from the teachings of Christ as you could get. I suppose I shouldn't be so surprised. I was talking to my brother-in-law (who is a pastor in Minnesota) about this, and as soon as I mentioned the name Robertson, he replied, "How did he embarass Jesus this time?"
That mental hiccup reminded me of one of Chomsky's comments in this film, which was that the corporation itself is the monstrosity, not necessarily the individuals that run it or work for it. In fact, he said, the people who run the corporation may be really nice guys who are sincere about doing the right thing. His point was that the corporation itself was monstrous, so the offices those people occupy are necessarily part of the monster. Thinking of it that way was a new insight for me. Even when I don't agree with Chomsky, I like listening to him. Very articulate ... and clever.
