(11,495 posts)The facts are still not in, so pardon my view that until then it is all about politics, another in the line of BS scandals coming from the right wing tea publicans. If the facts show me wrong, then I will admit that. Will you admit you were wrong if the facts don't support your claims?
Do you admit their are trolls on this board who are keeping things stirred up? Will you admit that this benefits the Rand Paul teabagger camp? Does it not make you wonder just how one after another "perfect storms" have come together all of which are doing their best to tarnish the president, his administration and the party? And most of all will you actually be able to say you are wrong if the facts show that you are?
Everyday something else happens that shows me that Mr. Snowdon is not the hero you and so many others here are making him into. I am sorry if I can't believe the things you do. I am sorry that I am willing to get ALL the facts before accepting the claims being made by Mr. Snowdon.
We all have the right to our own opinion, but if there are serious problems with NSA programs it's congress you should be laying the blame on. They passed the Patriot Act, and they keep on passing it while adding more things to it. We do need an investigation, and we need oversight. Only congress can change the laws, put in oversight, and make sure things change.
