Why is Glen Greenwald's name popping up all over the board tonight?

103. Yes, they did and they knew why. Do you?

Iraq is an emotional issue for all of us, especially those who had friends and relatives who were sent there. And since most of the country supported that war, there was nothing we could do about it. But when thoughtful people began to question their support causing cracks to occur in the Bush Administration's lockstep grip on the 'facts', most of us were thrilled and more than appreciative of their willingness to admit they had been wrong.

In fact, it was the initial supporters who had the most credibility when, like Greenwald, they spoke publicly out against it. We, who always opposed it, were never taken seriously.

As I said before, if you have lost respect for those who initially 'trusted Bush', you should no longer belong to the Democratic Party because all but a few of them, 'trusted Bush' and helped him get that war started. Which was a crushing blow to those of us who were depending on them to stop him.

I respect anyone who can admit they were wrong. It is isn't often easy to do. As evidenced by your attitude towards GG. He always admits when he is wrong. People are human, they make mistakes, but since he realized he was wrong he has done everything he can to try to prevent that mistake from happening again. And became a target of some pretty powerful people for his efforts.
