Greenwald commentary

The genius investigators in the right-wing blogosphere -- who serve as our Watchdogs over the Corrupt "MSM" -- made a major, major discovery this weekend. Last Wednesday, former CIA agent Larry Johnson published a Memo (.pdf) sent from the U.S. Mission in Iraq which advised troops and other military personnel in Iraq of a "theater-wide delay in food delivery" which would likely limit the available food supply.

Again, hysterical, slanted BS.

Who is this columnist and why does anyone waste the pixels?

And that's the danger of aligning your opinion with any blog without checking the facts. As I've said over and over again.

Thanks for confirming that.

On that particular (election machines) story, the truth about the machines was correct - they just got the company wrong. Same result. Fraud in elections. Big difference between screaming your head off about a false story and then refusing to admit it.

Oh, yeah, Suz, your leftist buddies NEVER do that, do they? Naaaa...only the evil rightists do that, huh?

Objectivity would be refreshing.
