1. zelikow is highly suspect for a number of reasons; my k-k-k-konspiratorial thinking, is that he is positioning himself to steer and defang any/all 'twuff commissions'/etc that *may* still result...
if so, he -as an insider/player/decision-maker of the events in question!- will perform *just* as he did with the nine one one commish: don't ask, don't tell...
hee hee hee
2. doesn't the constant hand-wringing wear the skin off ? ? ? stop it... calm down...
you are NOT going to show our power elites how they are in 'error', that is pointless... (don't you know they have 'beautiful minds' and don't really hear the mewlings of li'l peeps ?)their immoral equation (that you can't imagine civilized nekkid apes using) ALWAYS tilts to their favor, NOT to quaint concepts of 'the greatest good for the greatest number', etc...
'truth', 'justice', 'the american way', 'rule of law', etc, etc, etc have ZERO meaning for them, UNLESS they can use the rigged system against you; otherwise such platitudes are for the propaganda viktims and losers...

3. again: it is NOT for lack of information, lack of smarts, lack of capability, lack of expertise, lack of constitutional knowledge that prevents our Fearless Leaders (tm) from 'doing the right thing'; it is lack of vision and guts to reject the power elite's agenda and the proscribed, allowable limits of debate and social action which they control...

4. survival tip: i recommend 'open-pollinated' or 'heriloom' varieties for your garden, hybrids won't do you much good for seeds after the first season...

leading to one of two conclusions, either:
1. 'our best and brightest' consistently make stupid, irrational, counter-productive decisions that don't benefit society (but -just randomly and by coincidence- consistently benefit the power elites and their interests)
OR
2. 'our best and brightest' are corrupted, coopted, and conditioned to serve power elite interests above all else...
guess what ?
it's not 1...

whether it is doktors, or lawyers, or kongresskritters, or bloggers, or the fed, or police...
transparency in gummint (and a functional watchdog -not lapdog- media) are absolutely essential to preventing systemic corruption...
'self-policing' is absolutely guaranteed to produce a corrupt system...
'self-policing' is another means of power elites hiding, codifying, and allowing abuse and corruption for the sake of maintaining their authoritarian systems, and preventing ANY and ALL criticisms that would logically lead to devolving their stranglehold on societal power...
you see, even if it is harmlessly revealed that naturally 'A' follows 'B', that could lead skeptical sheeple to then question whether 'C' follows that, and so forth ! ! !
that inevitably leads to conclusion 'Z' (revolution) ! ! !
*now* you see why it is so vital to stifle even the teeniest tiniest of harmless little camel noses (like single-payer healthcare) from getting in the not-so-big tent of allowable discourse...
*obviously*, that would start stupid li'l sheeples thinking they might actually run things around here, and we can't have that ! ! !

1. you are richtig in your assessment of gg's oftentimes thinskinned retorts and undeserved nastiness to 'contrary' posters... (not to mention the usual fanboyees who will bare their peace-lovin' fangs when saint glenn is glancingly criticized...)
2. your point -regardless of its validity or cogency- was bound to be lost on this crowd; some represent the worst of kneejerk lib'rulism (*ptui*), and many will NOT 'allow' a discouraging word regarding The One's (tm) infallibility...
(NOTE: *of course* saint gleen would be the first to say he is fallible, but not his fanboyees and fangrrlees ! ! !)
hell, most of these pwogs do not understand the concept of freespeech, much less support it ! ! !
3. there are numerous examples of sincere (although i would argue that even 'insincere' counter-arguments which are on point, deserve response) posters making arguments which are unpopular (though valid), and get unfairly bitch-slapped by glenn and glenn frenns...
once those barnyard biddies peck a chick speaking out of turn and raise blood, the rest of the flock will pile on and finish them off...
4. posit 3 cohorts:
A. a literal handful of sociopathic neo (nazi) con (artistes) (and their twue bewievers, amoral functionaries, and authoritarian sheeples) fraudulently obtain power, start illegal, immoral, ill-advised wars, subvert the constitution, and murder millions in our names...
they don't care...
B. a vast majority of over-worked, under-paid, thoroughly disgusted sheeple who are witting or unwitting propaganda viktims, take the superficial reasons for warmaking and constitution-shredding at face value...
they don't bleat...
C. a small percentage of nekkid apes who take seriously the idea of small-dee, particaptory democracy, and go beyond the mainstream pablum to stay better informed of the lies, perfidy, and illegal actions 'our' (sic) gummint takes, and they realize what is going on, but writing stern emails is all they know...
they don't count...
rank these cohorts in their relative culpability for our gummint to be subverted, and inhuman horrors to be committed in our names...
