Hope and Change: The rubes be poppin' up everywhere

Leftist enfant terrible Glenn Greenwald realizes that Obama, after promising to bring 'morality' back to our foreign policy is actually behaving even worse than George W. Bush did.  BHO has sure made a lot of rubes, hasn't he?


That George Bush would knowingly order an eavesdropping program to continue which his own top lawyers were telling him was illegal was, of course, a major controversy, at least in many progressive circles. Now we have Barack Obama not merely eavesdropping in a way that his own top lawyers are telling him is illegal, but waging war in that manner (though, notably, there is no indication that these Obama lawyers have the situational integrity those Bush lawyers had [and which Archibald Cox, Eliot Richardson and William Ruckelshaus had before them] by threatening to resign if the lawlessness continues).
All I can say is, you expected respect for legal niceties from a Chicago machine politician? Hey, Rube!
