"Greenwald is an advocate, not a journalist" This is important to remember.

82. when greenwald said;

"I had not abandoned my trust in the Bush administration. Between the president’s performance in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, the swift removal of the Taliban in Afghanistan, and the fact that I wanted the president to succeed, because my loyalty is to my country and he was the leader of my country, I still gave the administration the benefit of the doubt. I believed then that the president was entitled to have his national security judgment deferred to, and to the extent that I was able to develop a definitive view, I accepted his judgment that American security really would be enhanced by the invasion of this sovereign country.
"

I guess he was dumb enough to believe the shit about aluminum tubes, no one on DU did... so how awesome was that comeback, really?
