  • Astounding!

    This is really an astounding article for me. Revealing this secret of submission to the powerful by the fourth estate. You put it so succinctly! I mean of course I had a general idea about it but

    didn't conceptualize it. You have made a major contribution. Those videos were so telling.

    Thank you Mr. Greenwald.

  • I love In Treatment. Amy will be the one.

    In Treatment is the only TV series I am watching right now. The Sopranos ended and I am waiting for the second season of Damages. I am a political junkie and a good dramatic series is

    therapeutic for me after following the travails of the Clinton/Obama melodrama for hours.

    (BTW I am an Obama supporter).

    I think Gabriel Byrne is just adorable. But I'll bet the patient that he ultimately "makes it with"

    will be Amy. In the last episode I could sense that while he wasn't falling in love with her,

    like with Laura, he lusted for her.

    I do not like the teenage girl Sophie. As a mother of teenagers, I can't stand the way she talks to her mother; calling her the B word. Couldn't Paul have said you shouldn't insult your mother

    like that?

  • Dangerous knee-jerk patriotism

    Thank you Gary Kamiya for an excellent article.

    It's about time we not only have a discussion about race but also about knee-jerk patriotism.

    It is ignorant and extremely dangerous for all of humanity.
