yeah, and that will be ignored by too many here. bettyellen Jun 2014 #37
I'll ignore it because it didn't happen. The link below includes the segment about the 2016 election Luminous Animal Jun 2014 #88
And there it is! He made similar noises about Gary Johnson in '12. Why his work.... Tarheel_Dem Jun 2014 #59
I'm just glad the Paul could stand to be in the same room with GG's smarmy face. Tarheel_Dem Jun 2014 #72
No he didn't. Maher introduced Paul as the likely candidate. Greenwald was largely mute Luminous Animal Jun 2014 #86
Greenwald's comment was that many neo-cons are now supporting Hillary. Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin Jun 2014 #92
Watching it now. He said nothing about anyone supporting anybody. Luminous Animal Jun 2014 #94

It would be real journalism by Glenn Greenwald should he tell the complete story, who is behind Thinkingabout Jun 2014 #54
What a crock! BillZBubb Jun 2014 #63
What is a patsy? Thinkingabout Jun 2014 #74
that does it grasswire Jun 2014 #110
Naw, things was already made up, now we need the rest of the story. Thinkingabout Jun 2014 #112
I don't think you understand what's happening. grasswire Jun 2014 #114
Unfortunately I do understand, understand why there was a non disclosure as a requirement of Thinkingabout Jun 2014 #125
And how did Snowden know ... NanceGreggs Jun 2014 #141
Shit! It's worse than we thought, Nance! Look what's happening in Europe right fucking now! randome Jun 2014 #143

Read Greenwald's book and your clever questions will be answered. Your questions are a substitute ancianita Jun 2014 #145
Given that I don't trust a word GG says ... NanceGreggs Jun 2014 #149
You base your distrust upon nothing but fantasy and hearsay. You sound like right wingers ancianita Jun 2014 #153
I base my "mistrust" ... NanceGreggs Jun 2014 #154
"No, you!" I'm not one to believe "official sources" anymore, that's true. I've lived ancianita Jun 2014 #155
Healthy skepticism is exactly that ... NanceGreggs Jun 2014 #156
Wow, you're so right! Sorry about the non-grammatical nonsense. I was tired. The point is that IN ancianita Jun 2014 #157
I have far more respect and trust for Paul Rieckhoff One of the 99 Jun 2014 #57
I have little respect for Rieckhoff BillZBubb Jun 2014 #64
Rieckhoff was a soldier who did his duty One of the 99 Jun 2014 #75

Does this Rieckhoff support the U.S. wars of aggression? JackRiddler Jun 2014 #67
Sen. Mike Rogers (R) would say the same things. JackRiddler Jun 2014 #68
The intellectual discourse in this thread is, um, lacking. neverforget Jun 2014 #76
Except this is Greenwald's method of debate, as Rieckhoff pointed out. joshcryer Jun 2014 #78
Both sides are doing it on this thread. That's what I am saying. neverforget Jun 2014 #85
I'm not disagreeing. joshcryer Jun 2014 #121

Rieckhoff was rude. Obviously hadn't read Greenwald's book. Thinks because he's fought, he's right. ancianita Jun 2014 #79
"Rieckhoff was rude"? Oh right.. of course.. GG was a model of decorum and it's everyone Cha Jun 2014 #89
You mad? I didn't say he didn't have a right to voice his opinion. He shut out other opinions. ancianita Jun 2014 #103
Paul Rieckoff was right.. and I thank him for standing up for the truth.. Cha Jun 2014 #108
Please explicitly state what Rieckhoff said that was "standing up for the truth." ancianita Jun 2014 #115
Bottom line is Paul Rieckhoff was so right and I thank him for exposing Cha Jun 2014 #116

Greenwald wasn't rude when he wouldn't let his opponent get a word in edgewise? Sure. lumpy Jun 2014 #101
GG is "god" .. you don't question the big green meanie. lol Cha Jun 2014 #102
Intelligent questions, sure; not presumptuous questions like "why is Snowden hiding" in Russia. ancianita Jun 2014 #106
"Bullshit" was the one and only interruption. And it was the right response, too. Please tell me all ancianita Jun 2014 #104
"Bullshit" was Rude.. but of course the fans give the slithery one a pass on that. Cha Jun 2014 #129
yes, you are right grasswire Jun 2014 #113
Thank you. That's how I saw the exchange. Maher did say that Greenwald's ideas and book were to be ancianita Jun 2014 #117

Once again, the audience is with Greenwald. grasswire Jun 2014 #126
Agreed. They "got it" because they know who has their best interests at heart. ancianita Jun 2014 #127
Yeah Paul Rieckhoff, I enjoyed it. Stellar Jun 2014 #122
