Everyday they fall, one-by-one, peeling away what could have been. The motives, the travel schedule, exaggerations, misinformation and lies.
Edward Snowden is losing key democrats and progressives by the minute.
Chris Hayes has been a progressive warrior for awhile so I wasn't surprised when he said this to co-conspirator Greenwald:
"The information Snowden has released is “vital” and that it’s ultimately better to know than not to know...
That's sound thinking and aligned with his view of the world. But last night, Hayes threw down a serious:
However...
“I am worried that if he ends up on the balcony of Raul Castro at some point in the next week, it will be as if everyone who has been championing the revelations has walked out onto a limb that they are now standing on with, that is then going to be sawed off behind them, because now, Mr. Snowden the whistleblower is in the hands of someone like, say, Castro, or someone else who people generally do not view as a beacon of openness.”
I couldn't agree more.
So many progressives are out on the limb with Snowden and it's being sawed off by the minute. Jump now before its too late.
