The Chris Hedges piece is a very opinionated piece of writing, expressing how Chris Hedges feels. Why kj feels Hedges has written some sort of Bible about this topic is beyond me. If you look at truthdig.com, it is filled with all sorts of pretty radically "progressive" articles ( "Sarkozy May Recognize Palestinian Statehood" ) ( "The Republican Attempt to Redefine Rape, Reprised" ) ( "‘Populist’ Outrage Over TSA Scanners Was Anti-Union PR Campaign" ) so why this one article is so special to kj is a mystery to me. Does he think it represents the people on this board whom he considers "lefties"? Or does he think it represents a rebuttal to them?
