So, why isn’t a marshall or a sergeant at arms frog-marching him off to jail?

Last time I looked, that was a crime. Any chance this guy actually takes the consequences of his actions?

Sorry...just kidding..we know that consequences are only apply to conservatives.

What do you think is on the drives in the laptops Comrade Snowden is dragging around?

Even Putin told him to STFU. That’s funny, Bub.

Not enough.

He needs to come out with an announcement of a homosexual lover, and leave his family.

Then all would be forgiven. Heck, he’d be heroic.

He should get the “Libby” treatment - what is good for the goose is good for the gander.

Oh, well, no worries then. After all, perjury is just fine nowadays. Besides, it's racist to prosecute anyone in this Administration.

What are the odds that he’ll be prosecuted for perjury?

This man is a retired 3-star General for crying out loud.

Apparently, the word "integrity" isn't in his limited vocabulary.

Three years ago, when he called the Muslim Brotherhood a "secular" organization, I knew he was evil.

If you can’t tell the truth, then have the balls to explain that you can’t, and state that it is an issue of national security.

Then you simply state, if you all want to get this declassified, I’ll come back and answer your questions as frankly as I can.

Don’t lie. We know you’re lying, and it causes us to think you’re all a bunch of horse’s asses.

Where’s the firestorm, the outrage? This is no big deal, Media? Imagine if an (R) was in the White House and this happened.
