I want to commend Glenn Greenwald for speaking about these issues, particularly the problems he has with Democrats and Republicans and their enabling illegal torture, wiretapping, invasions of other countries, and so forth. He does so in a way that takes into consideration the arguments that both his allies and his adversaries consider. He is thoughtful about the arguments in ways which journalists in the mainstream have only superficially done. I think he is able to do this because as a constitutional lawyer, he has an understanding about the issues that helps him understand what has gone on, and helps him make his case clearly.
I came home this afternoon from errands and discussions with friends about these issues and I was interested to see and hear what Glenn had added to his posts as updates. I just have to point out that he does a good job.
