The Green Waldo
Well, I see he still is having a hissy fit. Today Greenwald is going off on the right wing blogosphere after Dread Pundit Bluto highlighted what got left out of Greenwald's original rant.
In fact, I'd say that Greenwald exceeds mere exaggeration and mischaracterization and flirts with outright lies in that section of his post. Colonel Boylan has not confirmed the authenticity of the letter, and the possibility remains that Greenwald, who has been alleged to use sock puppets in the past, might have faked it.
I hope the Colonel did write it, and, if he did, that he gets a commendation for it.
So what the hey, I'll just pile on, too.

Um, Greenwald included the link to the entire letter highlighted in his original post. He didn’t hide anything. Haven’t you guys ever read a blog before? I am sure you’ll be posting your apologies to Mr. Greenwald ASAP.

No, I don’t think so. Bluto pointed out that Waldo’s commentary on his original post cherry-picked what he wanted to attack, changing the context.
Interesting IP you have there Alice. ARIN says it has no return information on 24.0.195.138.

Gaius: you’re right. He purposefully selected that, knowing full well that most people wouldn’t read the entire e-mail.
LMAO! Tell me Alice, how’s life in Wonderland?

There’s an article over at Wired about a lady who tracks down Jihadis over the internet. One her tools is the ability to completely fake IP and mail headers.
