I'm sure you're not bringing this bit of nonsense here to stir up more left vs. left animosity now that it's died down somewhat.

If you have to stretch that far in your reach to criticize someone, that should tell you something.

Greenwald seems to have a big problem with Claude Taylor and Louise Mensch. Louise Mensch called Greenwald a Russian shill after some weird tweets Greenwald posted.

Greenwald supported the loser Gary Johnson (I live in NM) - WTF does that say about him.

OMG! Last year, Greenwald calling Trump honest!!

Greenwald: GOP Offended by Trump Because He’s Being ‘Honest’ About Their Policies

“It is true that he doesn’t use the language of political diplomacy. He doesn’t really use euphemisms. He speaks like ordinary people speak when talking about politics at their dining room table, which is one of the reasons for his appeal. And in that sense, he actually provides an important value, which is he’s stripping away the pretense of what the American political system and American political culture have become and describing it in a much more honest way."

To attack JK Rowling in this way, which is totally BS by the way, reeks of misogyny and exposes his inferiority complex...not to mention paying lip service to his Russian overlords!

...which she incorporated into a children's book series, of all things. Hopefully it will do some good there among her many now-adult fans.
