It’s informative to see the range of proving-their-liberal-cred bloggers who really want to push this story of Greenwald’s.

I suspect the problem with Obama as President is that many of these bloggers have felt constrained from following their urge to push, push, push all sorts of stories, out of deference to the reality that the White House is constantly inundated with wingnut idiotic outrages, and who wants to look like a wingnut?

Yet, as I linked earlier, the Guardian is in a big push to make more of a presence electronically in the US, and it looks like the are taking some hints from the Murdoch playbook.
