A Line that Says It All


"But in Obama’s faith in the average American voter lies one of the greatest weaknesses of his campaign."

Says all you need to know ... about the person who wrote it: Glenn Greenwald. Some people could live anywhere on the globe -- or on Venus -- and still have the unmeltable mentality of an inside-the-Beltway kommissar, an authoritarian enforcer, an ideological bouncer at the door of democracy.
