Glenn Greenwald Sums It Up

I think this is probably one of my favorite exchanges ever:

I guess you see your role as speaking truth to power, whoever happens to be in power. Which I can appreciate. The world definitely needs people like that.

What's the alternative? Flattering and cheering for power when it's on your side, no matter what it does?

The article Greenwald wrote is good, too.
