It's money money money just as it is racism racism racism whenever someone criticizes Obama. They have pathological bugaboos. <br /><br />So the reason they think big government is good while cursing what government does, it's because they think it is the money that is making governmentTonynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758330678390419129.post-63582660346714366062014-02-15T21:35:58.291-05:002014-02-15T21:35:58.291-05:00Bob, I read the interview, and I can see GG's ...Bob, I read the interview, and I can see GG's "left" slant, but it seems a lot of it will focus on civil liberty, the wars and spying.

If you want to marry 5 women, as in Mormonism, why should the government care? What makes it their business?

Rather the blindness of the useful idiots and tools is flippin hilarious/hypocritical.<br />If the family is - and it has been since time immemorial - the fundamental building block of society, why do you think the big bad government which on the one hand GG opposes, on the other is so intent on redefining marriage to include same sex Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758330678390419129.post-70972521598310095802014-02-15T17:58:24.844-05:002014-02-15T17:58:24.844-05:00To me this is a given, everyone knows that Greenwa...To me this is a given, everyone knows that Greenwald is a liberal but is one of the few that has been consistent since the Bush era.

I just don't get how leftists can bitch about things that are caused by Big Government while supporting its existence at the same time.
