Snowed on Snowden

[ucrdem]

32. Right, the op-ed extolling the exceptional Rand Paul:

It didn’t help that Congressional watchdogs — with a few exceptions, like Senator Rand Paul, Republican of Kentucky — have accepted the White House’s claims of legality. The leaders of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Dianne Feinstein, Democrat of California, and Saxby Chambliss, Republican of Georgia, have called the surveillance legal. So have liberal-leaning commentators like Hendrik Hertzberg and David Ignatius.

Oh brave Rand Paul, who has defenders at the NYT, and elsewhere. I remember commenting on that one but I guess it got reposted sans pesky critics, as these things often are. Oh well, comment is free, to borrow a phrase.
