A more complete criticism of Chomsky can be found here:

http://www.intellectualconservative.com/article3754.html

The Windschuttle piece is well written but it does not have the quote 
I'm looking for.  The quote was a follow-up interview to a group of 
writers, if I recall correctly, from The Nation in 1975 about lessons 
learned from Vietnam.  And no Ted, it wasn't in the form of "I endorse 
the Khmer Rouge" but a comment about how the people of Cambodia would be 
better off under the burgeoning Communist Regime.

For the life of me though, I can't find it, but I'm not going to stop 
looking just yet.  In my mind I'm right.  That, however, is a tricky 
proposition.
