Why aren't we talking about prosecuting them (the feds involved including you know who) with even more vociferous ferocity?

Olbermann seems to excel more at how he communicates and Greenwald does better at what he communicates. The whole "tough on security" posturing needs to be stood up to as Greenwald says, not embraced. We saw John Kerry embrace this meme and it only served to make him second best in the minds of many voters. But the core problem lurking behind all this, as I said many times, is that if you don't tow the line, the people in power will use the media to destroy you.
