Glenn Greenwald on MSNBC criticizing Clinton for failing to protect classified information.

[Cali_Democrat]

Pretty fucking hilarious considering the fact that his boy, Edward Snowden, intentionally stole loads of classified information and fled to Russia.

Do you think he even realizes how foolish and hypocritical he looks?

[PJMcK]

1. Of course he doesn't

Glenn Greenwald, aka: Hypocrite, couldn't possibly understand how foolish he looks. That would require introspection.

[Zynx]

2. Oh fuck him.

[dlwickham]

13. thank you

[Iliyah]

3. To answer your question

NO.

[Cha]

4. ...

LOL@hypocrites.

[NanceGreggs]

5. "Do you think he even realizes ...

... how foolish and hypocritical he looks?"

No, not a chance. Glenn jumped the shark years ago - just another hypocritical hack hitting the snooze button every time the alarm goes off signaling that his fifteen-minutes-of-fame are over.

[MohRokTah]

6. GREENWALD!!!!!

[Dawson Leery]

7. Snowden is yellow.

He did far more damage than Hillary ever did, and Snowie did it intentionally.

Hillary meant no harm with her email system.

[bravenak]

8. Him assange and snowden, lololololol

[dlwickham]

15. and let's not forget Miss Chelsea Manning

[bravenak]

18. At least she took her lumps abd is doing her time

They rest are just weak

[sheshe2]

25. Who?

[bravenak]

26. I know, right?

[sheshe2]

28. Ha!

Where is that child, bravenak? We lost touch with him.

[bravenak]

33. I hope he stays with Poot Poot and leaves us be!

[sheshe2]

31. Stop!

He is our hero...

[bravenak]

32. Like Paul Revere

[Tortmaster]

47. I remember those glorious days back in 2013 ...

... when the NSA was going to be THE BIGGEST campaign issue in 2016. Unfortunately, it was such a tiny issue in 2014, that the one Democratic Senator who ran on it, and who actually spent a good portion of his funds for a political ad about it, lost.

[revmclaren]

9. Greewald needs a new word to describe him.

HYPERCRITE is more like it. So past being a hypocrite that he is out of this spatial dimension.

[brush]

10. Where are all his and Snowden's fan boys that consider them heroes?

Here's why Clinton wasn't charged.

"Whoever, being entrusted with or having lawful possession or control of any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, note, or information, relating to the national defense, (1) through gross negligence permits the same to be removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of his trust, or to be lost, stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, or (2) having knowledge that the same has been illegally removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of its trust, or lost, or stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, and fails to make prompt report of such loss, theft, abstraction, or destruction to his superior officer—Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both."

That's exactly a description of what Snowden did and what Greenwald assisted in.

[Thinkingabout]

11. He will say and do whatever turns a camera in his direction, no, he does not know

how foolish he appears.

[dlwickham]

16. attention whores rarely do

[Scurrilous]

12. @#$% Glenn Greenwald.

[still_one]

14. Greenwald is a frickn hypocrite

[DonCoquixote]

17. as much as I think the email server was a bad idea

Glenn flushed his credibility when he back Citizens United and then pissed on the remains when he took a job at New Pravda, aka RT.

[sheshe2]

19. Who?

[Cha]

24. ...

[sheshe2]

29. Yup.

[Sheepshank]

20. ..and deliberately supplied said stolen info to foreign governments.

Fucking hypocritical to the max

[cosmicone]

21. One has to be a hypocrite to attack Hillary

as in stealing data is ok but having it on a private server where it can be stolen is a crime

or

being paid for speeches that didn't result in any quid pro quo is a capital crime but being paid by another dangerous lobby and actually voting to benefit that lobby is a-ok.

[Hekate]

22. Read this to hubby and he lol'd

Take advice from Greenwald and you end up in prison or in exile. Sad business.

[Cha]

23. ...

[Hekate]

40. I actually feel sorry for some of those people, like Manning and maybe Snowden. GG must have ...

...a silver tongue, to have persuaded so many people into putting themselves in mortal danger. The more fool they -- but I still feel that on some level GG conned and victimized them.

[Tortmaster]

48. I don't know of any pre-disclosure connection between Greenwald and Chelsea Manning.

Are you thinking of Assange?

I do agree that Greenwald lied to Snowden. Greenwald actually wrote a crappy blog post back in 2006 that discussed the outing of the Bush telephone data collection activities. They were front page news in USA Today back in 2006! I wonder when he told that to Snowden?

[brush]

56. He used Snowden for sure. He's got his big media deal and Snowden is stuck in Russia

The sad thing is Snowden doesn't seem to know it as he still sends out desperate missives whenever he senses his fifteen minutes are about to run out.

[sheshe2]

27. Where is Snowden's horse?

The man was likened to Paul Revere here.............lol

[treestar]

54. ...

I remember that graphic!

[George Eliot]

30. Why Greenwald hit piece under election 2016? More gen disc. I think

I'm a fan of Snowden and Greenwald. Snowden did us a service at his own peril and Greenwald is a great investigative journalist and thinker. Seems like a general discussion post.

[Cali_Democrat]

34. Because the hypocrite was talking about Hillary. nt

[George Eliot]

60. Hypocrite? Please explain.

[Cali_Democrat]

61. Glenn Greenwald criticized Hillary for failing to protect classified information

Yet his guy, Edward Snowden, sole loads of classified information and fled to Russia. He was singing Snowden's praises and still does.

1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.

2. a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

[George Eliot]

63. Yes. Selfless and for country. So...?

[sheshe2]

35. I assume...

The Op put it here because it was about our presumptive nominee, Hillary Clinton. Also about the trumped up 'Email Scandal' that has dogged her through out the debates.

[Surya Gayatri]

44. This IS satire, n'est-ce pas?

"Greenwald is a great investigative journalist and thinker."

[leftynyc]

45. Greenwald is a sniveling hyopcrite

that takes any opportunity to trash the US. Meanwhile, he COULD have done some real good doing some "investigative journalism" right in his own fucking backyard this summer by reporting on the disaster these Olympics are going to be. He lost his credibility long ago.

[Tortmaster]

49. I agree with this part of your post:

"Snowden did us"

Here are my reasons.

[betsuni]

36. Greenwald reminds me of the old joke about a guy

who's such a liar that he has to get someone else to call his own dog for him. I forget exactly how it goes.
Who listens to him anymore?

[blue neen]

37. Good old Glenn....down there living in Brazil.

Doesn't even live in this country, doesn't pay taxes here, but does nothing but complain about the US. He doesn't even matter anymore, but he sure tries to stay relevant, doesn't he?

It's not working.

[The_Casual_Observer]

38. Incredible that something as stupid as this ever got more than 5 minutes of play.

Shows how hard they want her out.

[Jamaal510]

39. As soon as

he came on this afternoon, I immediately switched to ESPN. I have no tolerance for him and other pundits beating a dead indictment fairy.

[lovemydog]

41. I've gotten that way about a lot of stuff.

Can't stand the pundits. They talk about so much insider D.C. stuff that has little to do with the policies that the candidates are espousing.

They'd do a much better service by going over policies and policy proposals every day.

Plus, I'm more interested in considering the ramifications throughout the entire NBA of Kevin Durant going to the Warriors.

[Tortmaster]

42. He's not just a hypocrite, but also a ...

... serial liar and dissembler:

In a twenty-eight-day period in June 2013, Glenn Greenwald manipulated a terrified public with stories that were untrue in their most important assertion or were wild-eyed conspiracy theories. He withheld information that was important for his readership to know, and when he made huge mistakes, he failed to retract or correct them. During that short time frame, Greenwald managed to imply that intelligence agencies were intercepting the content of American communications in a willy-nilly manner while concealing their actions from Congress. That would be terrifying if it had been true.

Greenwald, the lawyer, ignored well-settled law in the area, including the Roe v. Wade of telephone metadata decisions. Greenwald, the journalist, speculated wildly about what was contained in NSA slides, then reported his erroneous conjectures as fact. Greenwald, the Civil Libertarian, attempted the public hanging of an innocent man. Even if you believe all of this was simply sloppy journalism, Greenwald has maintained many of these false premises, making them, by now, intentional fabrications. And those are a few of the lowest lights.

Keep an eye on that fellow. He cannot be trusted.

[Surya Gayatri]

43. Self-awareness and introspection are not among Glenn's strong points...

[randome]

46. The guy who thought PRISM was downloading the Internet every night? THAT guy?

I remember him.
[hr][font color="blue"][center]The truth doesn’t always set you free.

[Tortmaster]

50. Haha! Yes.

He claimed that NSA agents walked into the offices of internet providers every day and opened the internet spigot.

And though proven to be a lie, he has still not retracted that story.

When confronted with proof that the story was a lie, Washington Post reporter Barton Gellman backed off it and offered a retraction. So did others. GG was happy to let stand the lie.

[stonecutter357]

52. fuck Ron Paul.

[treestar]

53. So hypocritical

They just want to go after Hillary. We already know they are not concerned about classified information - it was great when Eddie released it and "transparency." So they should not have the least concerns and in fact should be glad if it makes it easier to expose the information.

[MaggieD]

55. OMG - that is hilarious!

And I'm sure the irony is completely lost on that idiot and every other ardent support of Snowden who is simultaneously hating on Hillary over this.

[CrowCityDem]

57. Glenn protects a criminal, and thinks he can judge others. Classic.

[Her Sister]

59. Yep they give their agenda away! Super dumbass hypocritical!

A lot of bad faith there!

[mcar]

62. What a hypocrite!

[Lil Missy]

64. Oh, fuck Glen Greenwald. n/t

[MineralMan]

65. Wow! MSNBC must be having trouble lining up guests.

Too many 24/7 news networks, I suppose. But Greenwald?

[Spazito]

66. LOL, he still thinks he's relevant somehow....

MSNBC is really in the gutter if they're putting him on.
