This is so like the TV show PERSON OF INTEREST and Snoden is the “Finch” character. Maybe he has a “back door” into the government servers that will protect him for a long time.

I think it was Peter King who said today that reporters who print classified documents should be arrested.

I wonder if all these mosques being builit all over the country aren’t computer centers. No one can go in them. Not ever local cops. I may need some tin foil but I wouldn’t put anything past this government.

I noticed something strange on Greta tonight. First Graham, then Gulianni constantly smiled and laughed a kind of nervous laugh. I’m betting they’re scared to death of what the government has on them. That explains all these politicians calling Snoden a traitor. And Peter King saying reporters should be arrested.

As for attacks being stopped, show me one. I know a few they didn’t stop.

Snowden is the Paul Revere of the 21st century and have informed the American Citizen of the treachery of our corrupt Government

I will stand with Snowden before I will stand with the ilk like Obama, Boehner and the others that cry traitor in the face of a would be hero

The American Citizen has been warned. What happens next is either in the government’s side of the court or ours. I believe the corrupt government will act next by starting to limit internet and media access

IMHO

No, he is just another disaffected liberal/libertarian traitor who betrayed his colleagues, his girl friend, his family, himself, and his country when he fled to China to sell our secrets.

I will stand with Snowden ...

Really, are you going to divulge classified information to foreigners too ? Or are you going to travel to China to stand with him ? Or are you going to become a mentally ill antiAmerican like Cindy Sheehan ?

I've never seen such a derangement syndrome on FR like this on behalf of a traitor just because there is a moslem socialist in the WH.
