U.S. intelligence director calls on Snowden to return NSA documents

13. Charles Pierce wastes no time in tearing Clapper the new one he

so richly deserves!

"There certainly is a lot of goddamn gall going around Washington these days.

Snowden claims that he's won and that his mission has accomplished," Clapper said during his opening statement. "If that is so, I call on him and his accomplices to facilitate the return of the remaining stolen documents."

There are a lot of things Clapper can do. "Retire and raise begonias" is one of the more polite suggestions. But one thing he can't do is loosely accuse "accomplices" of crimes because, I mean, Jesus, just wow.

"The least untruthful manner."

You wouldn't buy that from your toddler."
