Thanks to Thom Hartmann and Greg Palast, I knew about a lot of this. It's physically sickening. Some people in my life who are diehard Democrats aren't fully taking this in yet--and I don't blame them because it's hard stuff. The idea that American diplomats abroad can no longer comment on the freedom and fairness of elections in other countries makes me just incredibly sad. They know in advance it would be hypocritical of us to call another nation's election unfree and unfair because, well, ours are about to become unfree and unfair.
