I just ordered Glenn Greenwald's book, No Place To Hide.

[sabrina 1]

24. I remember Greenwald when he was just another writer on Daily Kos. But he stood out to Democrats

from among so many others, because of his clarity on the issues, his detailed explanations of the law regarding our Constitutional Rights and his presentation of the material he chose to address, which was always, the attack by the Bush/Cheney administration on our Constitutional Rights and the lawlessness that was rampant regarding the treatment of detainees.

When people are passionate about something, it lights a fuse under others. And back then, in 2005 when he first began writing on Dem Forums, he was one of the most respected and quickly grew a readership on his own blog.

He was hated of course by the Right, but never shied away from 'taking them on' on his blog. His writings were like an oasis in a desert back then when our Corporate Media seemed to be paralyzed when it came to telling the truth about the threat posed to this democracy by the Bush/Cheney administration.

Greenwald has not change one iota regarding his views, since then. But something HAS changed and it is revealing, far more so than anything Greenwald could write.

What HAS changed is how some on the 'left' now agree with the right wing who were attacking people like Greenwald throughout the Bush years. And we need to find out WHY, whether these are just individuals who were silent during the Bush years, or whether or not they represent the current leadership of the Dem Party.

I will definitely be reading his book. It has received rave reviews from people who have read it so far.
