I may be voting Libertarian this year, and I have a long-standing contempt for the Libertarian Party.

Greenwald continues:
But what I also know is that Democrats generally and progressives specifically claimed to view these issues as one of grave importance during the Bush years — when railing about SHREDDING THE CONSTITUTION or CIVILIAN DEATHS or LEGAL BLACK HOLES or AUTHORITARIAN SECRECY conferred partisan advantage. To suddenly declare now that these issues are of marginal importance only, or that efforts to find a way to counter the bipartisan consensus on them are illegitimate or destructive, is intellectual dishonesty of the worst kind. It’s unfortunate that both political parties, and the current President, are largely in agreement on these vital issues. Finding ways to subvert that consensus is imperative for anyone who actually believes in their importance.
