20. Another one ate up with jealousy.

I see a few like this on all blogs I read (red, purple or blue) and I've come to believe these smug posters have probably debated Glenn in his comment sections (at various sites) and had their dumb asses handed to them.
Glenn's a (shocka!) real Constitutional lawyer (and don't play one as president) and this petty vindictiveness over his growing fame would be amusing if it wasn't so dismally sad.
Ben Franklin didn't sail to England and stand trial for his whistle blowing. I guess poets and writers who defect from other secret authoritarian governments should go back and face the consequences there, too? (And I know where you're gonna go with that but what you and me see Amerika as- is certain to be quite different)
