Greenwald: I Didn’t Even Know Snowden’s Name Until He Was In Hong Kong

43. what!?!?

Wow you guys are waaaaaay out there...Greenwald speaks the truth regardless if it's his Democratic Party in power or not. You make me feel ashamed for MY Democratic Party of which I have campaigned for since 1985...you are all acting like the Bush followers with their blinders on. This is way beyond Obama and when you say nothing is Obama's fault because he's up against so much power then you better extend that gratuity to a journalist like Glenn who is up against much more including the myopic reactions of his fellow countrymen...I sincerely do not understand those who are smearing him...makes me wonder if it's Republicans because I have news for you...Republicans are not supporting Snowden in an effort to make Obama look bad...they are way to married to the military industrial/surveillance/policestate complex than to ever go along with a truthteller like Snowden or Greenwald. Electing Obama didn't change anything as evidenced by the evidence and Im truly sorry for that but Im not an ostrich with my head in the sand....if you read Snowdens interviews you would see that he wanted to come out under Bush but hesitated because he like all of us figured Obama would end these practices as promised...he got disillusioned after a few years of seeing that we have basically a Bush 4th term in his eyes so he came out now. I remember when hardcore Republican loonies finally gave up on Bush because they couldn't ignore Katrina, Iraq, the Financial Meltdown etc but there were always a few staunch defenders left because no one wants to admit the failure of 'their guy'. I am a Progressive now and I support guys like Russ Feingold, Alan Greyson, Michael Moore et....keep the faith and let the truth shine because as Orwell said, "When we live in a time of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act." Peace.
