Hang Together, Or We Hang Sepatately*
By: Mark W Adams


There are few bloggers out there that can put it all in perfect perspective as Glenn Greenwald (which is probably why he's now getting paid for it). Today he makes the case that a John Edwards presidency would mean a restoration of all those truly American values that scare the hell out of the likes of Bill O'Reilly.
Who could even fathom an America plagued by habeas corpus, search warrants, and a military that fails to beat, freeze and mock-execute its detainees?

Please read it. I can hardly do justice to Greenwald's favorable comparison of Edwards to subversives like, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington, whose views O'Reilly no doubt believes are unpatriotic and unAmerican.

Unbelievable.
