I love Glenn Greenwald with all my heart. I thought of emailing to tell him that, but I don't want to sound psycho. ;-) I think he just be the most sane, insightful well-informed political columnist I've seen in ages.

Ditto. I realized a few weeks ago that if I were to write someone in for President (no way; I think Obama's great and gets my vote even if he doesn't need it) I'd write in Greenwald.

I like Greenwald, but if I were going to write someone in, it would be Senator Patrick Leahy. He is one of the very few public officials who I agree with so often that on an unknown issue I'd be willing to assume his side is the right one.

For me that's Barney Frank. But it's a shame that if he's going to chair a major committee, it's got to be banking. Earilier in his career he was brilliant on social programs and almost as much so on foreign policy, the judiciary, and taxation.

"Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you."

Is it just me, or are there days where it feels like we've fallen into a Robert Anton Wilson novel?

I haven't read enough Wilson to say. But there are days when it feels like we've fallen into a Kurt Vonnegut novel, for sure.
