As Twitchy reported last night, actor John Cusack took to Twitter in support of Sen. Rand Paul’s filibuster. The actor opposes the use of drones, and he wondered where the Democrats were, whom he believes should be standing up to “regressive corporate warlord” Obama.<\/a><\/p>\n

Today, he used Twitter to praise Sen. Wyden, the one Democrat who did #StandwithRand<\/a> during his “filiblizzard<\/a>.”<\/p>\n\n\n

@cenkuygur<\/a>: Great credit to Ron Wyden so far for being the only principled Democrat to join Rand Paul in arguing for the constitution.”<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>

He also continued to ding liberals for remaining silent, by retweeting these tweets from Glenn Greenwald.<\/p>\n\n\n

RT @ggreenwald<\/a>: Van Jones on CNN: “Rand Paul last night was a civil liberties hero” and “progressives should be ashamed of themselves”<\/p>\n

RT @ggreenwald<\/a>: Amy Goodman in the Guardian: America is shamed that only Rand Paul is talking about drone executionst.co\/NaotI<\/a> …<\/p>\n

— John Cusack (@johncusack) March 7, 2013<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, note the snide slam to Sen. Rand and the Tea Party: How can it be only that dumb old rube? Taking a sneering page straight from WaPo’s Eugene Robinson’s clueless book.<\/a><\/p>
