Glenn Greenwald:

"Greenwald pays Obama a compliment, and as a result..."

...was a back-handed compliment in response to a comment about his reactionary piece quoting MineralMan.

Paul's positions are bullshit, primarily myths created to sell him. Greenwald has invested a lot of time pushing Paul as genuine.

What's the point of creating the impression that these positions are real?

There are already signs on the campaign trail that the veneer is coming off and via Paul's own statements.

I mean, the guy was an anti-war hero, and now there is evidence that's complete bullshit, with his own campaign manager declaring that he's not anti-war.

All I have to do his look at his son, who has joined him on the campaign trail. Rand Paul not only proposed criminalizing "radical political protests," but he also created a budget that included billions more for defense than Obama's.

I want debate based on positions people actually hold, not propaganda to fool the masses. That has gone on too long with Paul.
