    Decency vs. decline, degredation and decadence

    Once again, you do us a great service, Mr. Greenwald.

    There is a spiral of ever-increasing incivility and cruelty in this society. Probing for dirt in Cindy McCain's life has nothing to do with the huge problems the country faces. Why aren't these reporters out asking about governmental corruption and abuse of power?

    Does the long, grueling and abusive presidential campaign provide psychic justification for the President who abuses power in office?
