Glenn Greenwald: …In sum, a murderous religious extremist was killed. The U.S. has erupted in a collective orgy of national pride and renewed faith in the efficacy and righteousness of military force. Other than that, the repercussions are likely to be far greater in terms of domestic politics – it’s going to be a huge boost to Obama’s re-election prospects and will be exploited for that end – than anything else.

I’m guessing GG is especially bitter because the, em, chances of his beloved Gary Johnson (see here) becoming President have just, eh, reduced a little. Oh dear.
IT LOOKS LIKE THERE’S A NEED FOR A DIAPER CHANGE! LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!….OR A GREAT ‘DANCING PARTNER’ FOR ‘THE DONALD!’
Did he really write “exploited”? Ahhhh, poor baby. This victory is choking in his throat. We don’t need to exploit POTUS’ victories, they stand very well on their own merits and yes, people, he will be RE-ELECTED. OBAMA 2012
I’m going to ignore the pathetic GG, and instead take this opportunity to wish everyone a good morning and a Happy May. The world is a better place today without that monster in it.
Let Katt Williams tell it. (WARNING, there is some cursing.)
I have no respect for that man and really don’t care what he has to say. I remember I use to listen to him and then he really started going after Obama. He is a cry baby.
Oh and Chipsticks. PLEASE use this photo next.

I have no tolerance for GG and his PL crew, including some in our media. Like Joe Scarborough. Think Progress has a report on Scarbo saying he was doing his best to try to continue the divide within the Dem Party today, saying that Obama went against his ideology by this action and the “base” never wanted him to get OBL. And the real truth is Obama campaigned on this issue saying, “We will kill bin Laden. We will crush al Qaeda. That has to be our biggest national security priority.”
Actually, there is a front page article on the Old Orange calling out Scarborough for this LIE that he is peddling. People are catching on, even some of those who might have been reluctant 5 months ago…President Obama’s accomplishments are so many and so undeniable, that only someone with a personal hatred (fueled by racism, jealousy and other) would be acting the way that GG is.
Give this dude a bottle, a diaper change, and a pacifier, and plop him in bed. It’s time for him to take a nap, ’cause he’s cranky!!!!
I think it way past time to stop talking about Glenn Greenwald as if he ware someone who seriously deals with real practical issues! GG knows nothing about the complexity of governing an ideologically diverse society like the U.S.
