Okay last one, but these people officially fascinate me. Besides for the obvious political affinity, I work in integrated marketing communications and advertising in the New York City market. I have to say that this campaign is one of the best I've seen for their target demo.

They are being deliberately enigmatic. The reply I got from their contact was: "Jacobin is published in the District of Columbia six times per year, we feature a wide range of writers and artists who aim to inspire critical dialogue on the discontents of life in the age of Fukuyama. Issue one will be available on September 15th."

As for the content... THOMAS FRIEDMAN is beyond an idiot, he is criminal. What a stupid warmongering statement! Thank god the Times has Krugman!

1. Agreed. He's an Idiot. A Mindless Warmongerer for Iraq.
He should have no credibility about anything, but he's regularly recycled as an expert on the Middle East and Globalism. People of Friedman's ilk are never held accountable for what they say or do to mold opinion. They are permitted to mouth their garbage and then move on to their next gig at the next cable talk show.

3. Dude;
I have no idea what you or this video is about. Granted, TF is not the bone fide absolute liberal. However, People such as Hilary Clinton and others supported the Iraq war also. I do not agree with everything TF has to say but he is far from anything that this post has to say about him. BTW, what the hell is the Jacobin Magazine. The only thing I could find is some NC17 movie with 2 dudes kissing for the content.

Where and when did this interview take place? It is old, 80's grainy stuff if I had to make a guess. Can you give a URL to the full content? If fox can do it then so can anyone. By it, I mean take a hell of a lot out of context.

Thanks in advance.

5. It's from his infamous Charlie Rose interview (can't you tell by the set?)
And there has never been a progressive bone in Thomas Friedman's body: http://www.nypress.com/article-19271-flat-n-all-that.html

6. I hear what you are saying...
I like what TF has to say on some issues but I could not believe what he was saying in this interview! Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11!

My guess is the interview took place in 2004 to 2006...Just a guess by what Charlie Rose said. However, it does look like older video but it is not.
