Lawrence Lessig Calls Glenn Greenwald's Critique Of Elena Kagan 'Absurd'
Tuesday, May 11, 2010
The fear card being played.
It's a lame argument, cowardly actually, to cower and be grateful because the lesser of the ev!ls is in power.
If everything that Obama promised during the campaign was a l!e, then what makes you think that everything that McCain promised wasn't also a l!e? Both candidates played to their base, with the winner apparently never intended to live up to the promises.
There's no way to predict what we'd be facing now had McCain-Palin got in. I'd expect with Democrats controlling both Houses of Congress some real aggressive blocking and stonewalling. But Democrats didn't do that when they had the chance with Bush, and they certainly aren't holding anyone in the previous administration to account.
Bush was a disaster, but what kind of Democrat expands on Bush's abuses? I don't even think McCain would have had the audacity to have done Bush one better, as Obama has done.
