In reply to the discussion: Internet anti-Greenwald agitators are playing some folks for Fools [View all]Summer Hathaway
(2,770 posts)those people who trust a man whose past is well known, whose accomplishments are a mater of record, and who was elected (not once, but twice) to the highest office in the land.
He believes such people are fools - because everyone knows it is much wiser to trust a man who no one had ever heard of before two weeks ago, whose own account of his past has a few rather glaring discrepancies, who stole confidential documents and fled the country with them, and who had made all kinds of assertions about the reach of the NSA -- assertions which he has yet to offer a scintilla of evidence to support. (And we can't question the man's credibility, because it's NOT ABOUT HIM, it's about what he has to say - which, I reiterate, he has not come close to proving.)
I hope that clears things up for you.
