YouTube - Garry Kasparov on Bill Maher
A fascinating interview with Kasparov. He's tough on Putin - and Bush - and is a sophisticated and witty political analyst. He talks about the same thing Tom Friedman has talked and written about - how high oil prices are propping up thugs like Putin. Chris Matthews notes at the end how impressive Kasparov is compared to American politicians, who tend to talk down to the American public. That is so true and drives me nuts. I long for a candidate who treats us like we have IQs over 50. FDR's fireside chats showed respect for the audience - where's that kind of respect?
