Eliot The Reckless Idiot
Yesterday, Glenn Greenwald told people "oh stop it" regarding the response to my governor's moronic behavior while underlining he's not really sympathetic given the guy's past prosecutions. But, the fact it shouldn't be a crime is only part of the point, while hypocrisy and recklessness are the fatal (for him) issues. As the post referenced notes, we should still be worried about the selective/politically motivated prosecution concerns. But, unlike some, that doesn't take him off the hook -- including from going bye bye -- in my book. Meanwhile, good smack-down of HC, Obama.
