ec outdent Gamaliel read what I actually wrote not what you would like to think I wrote Sullivan is no longer respected by anyone with any clue because of the Trig trutherism That s what took him from respected journalist who gets shrill about torture to pitiful obsessive Sullivan was a highly respected journalist not any more The Atlantic publishes articles by Sullivan a few times a year IIRC they only host his blog Sullivan has been vehemently criticizing the Bush administration for what he regards as torture since 2004 with increasingly overstated rhetoric and decreasing credibility so we know he will write with deep heartfelt hostility towards Thiessen These are easily checked facts not opinions Therefore Sullivan is not a RS in this article and citing him in this article is a BLP violation Do not violate BLP again please Cheers
