    words really are the best way to convey information, because we have to think about them. Doesn't stop people from trying to make them say what they wanted them to say, but at least they have to work at it a little.

    Nope, not even close.. Go and read Glenn Greenwald's articles here on Salon and you will see examples every single day of people wildly misreading what he has said.

    I can assure you that those people put no effort at all into misreading Greenwald..
