Glenn Greenwald tells the truth, and makes many uncomfortable

188. I don't know 'Driftglass' or 'Bluegal'. The 'Professional Left', btw, is another attempt to smear

the Left. I wonder why the Left is always a target of those with so much to hide? Both from the DLC/Third Way and from the Right, which are pretty much one and the same.

Of course people can diverge from ANYONE who is a public figure. On ISSUES. When they ignore issues but attack the person, that is not diverging, or disagreeing, it is an attempt to smear the person in order to try to discredit them, most often because that person is telling the truth.

We have these Corporate Tools on the Right and on the Left. Greenwald is a regular target of Corporate Tools.

And what does 'making an ass of himself' mean? What, even if true, does it have to do with the issues he refuses to remain silent about?

Everyone makes an ass of themselves, especially when they feel safe behind their computer screens. He at least is contributing something to this democracy by risking the anger, and he knows now that he is a target of some very powerful and dangerous people, of the powerful whose secrets they will protect at all costs.
