    Where are the threads started by progressives speaking out against the assassination of american citizens, extending the Patriot Act, NDAA, redefining civilian casualties to "militant", and the disposition matrix etc?

    Greenwald, Jonathan Turley, Conor Friedersdorf etc etc can see it.

    So can leaders of the anti-war movement:

    “Because he’s a Democrat, they don’t want to oppose him in the same way as they opposed Bush,” said Mr. McPhearson, who is also a former executive director of Veterans for Peace, and who said he voted for President Obama in 2008. “The politics of it allows him more breathing room when it comes to the wars.”

    Mr. McPhearson says antiwar protests of the sort that drew hundreds of thousands of people during the George W. Bush administration now draw 20,000 at best. He said his group’s strategy now is to emphasize the cost of the wars and the Pentagon amid Washington’s focus on trimming the deficit.

    The cultists are full of crap and that's all there is to it.

    I was able to find dozens by simply searching for "rhadamanthus" in the BBS search tool. If I wanted to, I could find more. But you're really not worth the effort, as you're willfully ignorant and now obviously lazy to boot. The chorus of liberals chastizing Obama's failures on these particular issues has been consistent and apparent. The fact that you choose to ignore it is not anyone's problem but your own.

    I don't know if you are a "progressive/liberal". I'm certain Haymitch is not.

    The rest in that thread didn't take it too well...

    I don't know, where are those threads? Why don't you show them to us to expose our hypocrisy?
