How many people do you see on TV, hear on the radio, or read in any sort of popular media, clearly calling the US government's actions with respect to WOT, GTMO, and Wikileaks illegal, self-serving and wrong, regardless of party affiliation? How many such people are able to catalogue the mendacity and willing to call current and former politicos (and apparatchiks and apologists) liars to their faces?
Greenwald's erudite earnestness makes him an easy target, but other than voting D regardless, he's usually pretty on-point. If you can handle the whole uncool "caring" thing.
I suppose you only read this blog because I "do shit"?
I don't mean to lionize the guy, but in the last six months he seems to have realized that there is only one party, and it is for imperial domination, the upward transfer of wealth, and the imposition of dual systems of brutality and legality for its actions and all others.
I say this as someone who used to regularly critize Greenwald for his myopic partisanship. But as of late your pwoggie charge is baseless. Obama et al have been his primary targets.

No, I read it for teh lulz.
...in the last six months he seems to have realized that there is only one party...
Yeah, he gets all uppity between elections. It's part of the pwoggie bloggie schtick. Unless he pulls a Chris Hedges, he'll be back to pimping his lesser-evil bosses in plenty of time for the up-n-coming.

Yeah, he says nice things and doesn't do shit. My point exactly.
