Once again serial liar Michael Goldfarb has shown what a mendacious twit he really is. I think Greenwald has made a mistake by arguing with this moral leper for the same reason that wrestling a chimney sweep is a bad idea.

To put it bluntly, these people think their shit doesn't stink.
The language spoken by Jabba the Hutt and his henchmen.
For proving once again that George Lucas is the greatest filmmaker of all time.
Case in point: Stephanie Zacharek of Salon. Her deep dislike for George Lucas and his movies is well-documented but then, a seething resentment against Lucas is mandatory if you want to write for that web site. From David Brin (who wrote The Postman, a movie that pretty much ended Kevin Costner’s movie career) calling Lucas a fascist to Alynda Wheat, who called Lucas a racist to his face and became a total drama queen when he ridiculed her for being a cretin, to David Thomson, who attacked Lucas for not putting more sexual content in movies aimed at ten-year-old boys (how long before this guy gets busted in a men’s room?) to Steven Hart, who thinks that just because he never read mythology or studied comparative religion (as Lucas did before he switched his major from anthropology to film studies) then George Lucas couldn’t have, either. Zecharek has taken her unhealthy fixation on George Lucas to new lows over the years, not only by making up her mind to trash his films before so much as watching them (I defy anyone to read her “reviews” and not think the fix was in) -even attacking him for the cameras and projectors he uses!
So is it any surprise that Stephanie Zecharek uses her review of a Star Trek movie as an opportunity to take another swipe at George Lucas, this time for not including sexual content in Star Wars? Four years AFTER the last Star Wars movie was released? Of course not!
Lucas must be the best filmmaker of all time. Just look at how many people still talk about him and his movies, even when reviewing other films!
Cat Stevens was barred from entering the US a few years ago. Where were these concern trolls back then? At least he can sing -unlike the Savage Wiener.
When Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz was exposed as a plagiarist, fraud and serial liar by Norman Finkelstein, Harvard was in a bit of a pickle. Two other law professors had already been exposed as plagiarists, and Dershowitz was caught ripping off From Time Immemorial, a work of pseudo-history that made its author a laughingstock.
So Dershowitz resorted to trying to slime Finkelstein. Usually, Dershowitz calls people anti-Semites when he can't rebut their arguments: just recently, he accused Desmond Tutu of being a Jew-hater. That wouldn't work with Finkelstein, whose family was almost completely exterminated by the Nazis during the holocaust (only his mother and father survived). So Dershowitz resorted to the technique of the BIG LIE: the more outrageous the lie, the better). Dershowitz accused Finkelstein of calling his own mother ( a woman who testified at trials of Nazi war criminals) a Nazi collaborator. Dershowitz, with the full support of Elena Kagan was allowed to put this repulsive libel on the official web site of Harvard Law School. When asked if it was a good idea to put such filth on the Law School's official page, Kagan said she had no problem with it.

To slander a holocaust survivor is grotesque, and shows how loathsome Dershowitz and Kagan are. The fact that a thug like Kagan holds a position in the government is a national disgrace.
Call a spade a spade: these charlatans were lying and they knew they were lying. The fact that they were lying to cover up war crimes makes them accomplices after the fact. It also explains why they're so hysterical about the idea of prosecution for the torturers: their role might be exposed and they might be held responsible.
Janet Cook was fired for making up a story about a drug-addicted kid (one that didn't exist) in the Washington Post. The idea that these hucksters might be punished for their own lies has them wetting their pants and bringing up the ultimate bogeyman: The Left (AKA -Dirty Fucking Hippies).
Someone should ask Meacham:
What exactly would a President have to do to be prosecuted (aside from getting blown by an intern, I mean)? Human sacrifice? Cannibalism?
Meacham is such a toadie that I get the impression even those crimes would be pooh-poohed as well.
When the Republicans wanted an investigation into Whitewater, they made it a point to talk about nothing else. No matter what the issue, it was always brought back to Whitewater. Obama and Holder need to be hounded over this until they leave office.
Obama and Holder, by refusing to even investigate, let alone prosecute war crimes that the perpetrators BRAG about committing are now neck deep in it themselves for trying to cover it up. We need to make it a point to bring it up in every interview and every public appearance. If Condoleeza Rice can be heckled by a guy wearing dressed up as an Abu Ghraib victim, then so can Eric Holder. He's just as complicit as she was.
