Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    Guy who got caught morally preening about things he otherwise champions finds such moral preening boring. #Progresshttps://twitter.com/EliLake/status/902702286631260160 …

        I read it. Your false equivalencies & seemingly intentional ignorance of leftist positions leaves readers disgusted at you and little else

        A lot of people like Nazis, too. Are you arguing the number of little hearts you get determines whether you're correct?

        This is fascinating. You're openly saying you write for your bubble readership. This is the worst kind of hackery.

        You’re dense. I am saying other people who read the column thought it was spot on. Smarten up.

        Heh, I guess that touched a soft spot. Maybe stop writing political cover for Nazis, and critical thinkers will stop rolling their eyes.

        You should stop now, @EliLake. For your own sake.
