Not every difference of opinion is a money-manufactured conspiracy and DG's recent take on Glenn isn't even a slight departure from his long-standing beef with the strain of libertarianism that Glenn belongs to.<br /><br />I can accept the argument that perhaps Drifty was motivated more by his dislike of Glenn than giving a shit about the issues, but the conspiracy angle is a bridge too far for me.<br /><br />I guess it explains your high blood pressure over it though.<br /><br />- Nonny MouseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-76424280532900124382013-06-27T22:29:24.747-05:002013-06-27T22:29:24.747-05:00Slightly Longer Lumpy Lang:

SHARIAH REGULATIONS POSTED AT ALL CORNERS.”<br /><br />Now in this part of East London there are in fact no such signs and the only thing that is noticeable is that there are quite a few dark complexioned men with beards and women wearing headscarves and some variation of hijab (although not niqab or burkas which are more likely to be seen in the West End where Saudi plutocrats hang out). <br /><br />I suppose I should be thankful that when I was his age I was an insufferable yuppie libertarian prick as well but back in the 1980s there was no internet (at least not one accessible to non-uber geeks in university computer labs) to archive every idiocy I must have perpetrated.Roger McCarthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741665797773605921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-43299599910683241602013-06-27T06:38:52.090-05:002013-06-27T06:38:52.090-05:00In the end, Libertarian Glenn Greenwald of Cato In...In the end, Libertarian Glenn Greenwald of Cato Institute is going to be outed as the Koch sniffing, tea party pusher that he is now that his mug is plastered all over national television.

Pilon, Cato’s VP for legal affairs and founding director of the Cato Institute’s 'Center for Constitutional Studies,' supported expanded FBI wiretapping in 2002 and called on Congress to reauthorize the Patriot Act as late as 2008."<br /><br />Read: http://www.thenation.com/article/167500/independent-and-principled-behind-cato-myth#ixzz2XPodpQqX <br /><br />This is going to be so much fun to watch.<br /><br />kfreednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-34309094589003272912013-06-27T02:00:06.824-05:002013-06-27T02:00:06.824-05:00Yep, dubya when you are right you are right.

So I wont be doing that anymore....and I wont be reading any more of your comments.<br />In fact, now that I think of it, I think I'll just be skipping the comment section here all together from now on. I notice a lot of the commentators I actually enjoy reading here are saying less and less anyway..so this shouldn't be too tough.<br /><br /><br />Driftglass, I was really joking with the thought experiment deal...but seriously..this guy is fucked up.

I guess when you have no other argument, you may as well pound the pulpit.<br /><br />A far better question is why Driftglass' posts get your panties in such a wad? Even if you think DG is being unfair to Greenwald and Snowden, is overreaching with his arguments, and is beating the topic to death, it is still crystal clear that Driftglass will have no effect Glenn at all. He simply doesn't have the media microphone to scratch Glenn. It isn't even clear (far from it) that any of DG's criticisms of Glenn will prove relevant.<br /><br />Why get so hetted up? You spend time on the internet, so I'm sure you've encountered people who you disagree with before.
