There’s another. (Incidentally, I don’t spend all my time at Salon — in fact I’m not much of a fan. But I do tend to keep an eye on both those writers, which in the case of Greenwald is of course basically a given for anyone who spends much time at all on the political internets.)

Thanks, again! All cleared up. See you secularists, there is a God!

William, thank you for your kind response. Re: my less than helpful phrases, I do apologize, but I do love to come here and vent/rant, it helps the digestion. In the future I’ll leave my smart assed comments for E.D. who I love as a son and Freddie who is sensitive, concerned, and a damn good Democrat.

Surely a happier outcome would be dismissing all ties (if any exist at all) and merely continuing the policies of warrantless spying and torture.

Yes. We should impeach Obama over his ties to ACORN. Meanwhile, the warrantless spying and torture ordered by the former President should be applauded.

This world makes no sense to me.

I think it was just the last video that was supposed to be a punking, where the woman told a story about killing her husband. The ex-husband in question so far appears to be alive.

I didn’t mean to claim that the media dropped the ball, even though that’s what John Stewart said. It seems like the story crossed over at about the right time, once it was clear that there were several videos and not just an isolated fluke. The difference between what O’Keefe did and what I consider to be professional journalism was part of what I was trying to get at towards the end of the post.
