Why are decent people saying this NSA leaker is a traitor for telling the American people and the world that Bama and his crime family are using every asset in the government to do bad things....
Of course he doesn't want investigations because they would catch his criminal friends at the bottom of every scandal in the news....
Fast and furious was getting guns to the criminals in Mexico
The IRS was targeting his political enemies=real, honest Americans
The NSA is doing the same thing, and probably giving information to other criminals in the bama crime family so the can blackmail congressmen and senators, and steal from anyone they wish
Seems to me the NSA leaker was smart to go somewhere he could be protected from the Bama Crime Enterprise....
Perfect Catch-22 situation - no way to win while staying within the "system".
Maybe because he has actually leaked information that is sensitive to your government and your allies. The NSA stuff that he leaked is protecting American people from their overreaching government- he probably should have stuck to that.
I am unsure that “traitor” would stick but some of the stuff leaked has been sensitive enough have foreign governments up in arms - so along that line he is no better than Bradley Manning or Julian Assange.

The media is part of the system. Imagine a congressman standing on the house floor saying he has docs proving NSA spies on Americans. The next day it would be in the news. The day after that there would be questions about the allegations and the day after that, questions about the congressman. Pretty soon FR would be one of the few places the topic was discussed and some posters would say that the congressman is a RINO, good riddance.
Manning got people who worked with us killed. We know of no such leaks from Snowden. As for foreign governments up in arms, the salient question is whether they learned anything new that would cause our methods to be compromised.

Reporting tyranny to Holder is akin to reporting the murders of Jews to Hitler.
When you can’t trust the press or the government who do you report a crime to when you see one?
Exactly!!!
This is a Chicago Thug regime. All (Congress, IG, FBI, etc) are bought off or scared into silence (yes, dissent is r@cist)
To whom was a whistleblower to report the crimes and corruption????
Snowden made the correct decision.
The MSM elites are revealed to be dimwitted fools
If Snowden was a hero as everyone claims he wouldn’t have released the info in the order that it was released.
He would have released the info on spying on foreign govts first to get the issue front and center, then he would have released the info the Obama adm was also spying on American citizens.
The way it’s been done he’s making it appear as if the so called “right wing extremist” are against fighting terrorist.
The little prop he had with him also raised my suspicions about this guy.
He is supposed to hate Dick Chaney but he had DC’s book, and now Zippo has himself a talking point “I’m no Dick Chaney”.
This guy is anything but a hero. He’s an Obama/Hillary operative and all this is part of the cover up of Benghazi as well as other terrorist attacks such as the Boston bombing.
If you haven’t noticed everyone is wondering with all this ability to gather info why weren’t terrorist attacks such as the attempted car bombing in NYC, and the Boston bombing stopped.
It isn’t anymore complicated than the Benghazi “spontaneous” lie which is “ the terrorist are so in tune with the news the terrorist can pick up on a news story plan and carry out a terrorist attack in just a few minutes, WITHOUT PLANNING, it’s spontaneous.
They are trying to make people believe that terrorist attacks aren’t being stopped because there is little or no PREPARATION for the terrorist attacks.
They not only tried to create this lie with Benghazi but also with the Boston bombing.
The Boston bombers had a plan for July 4, but changed it just a couple of days before to the Boston Marathon, then “SPONTANEOUSLY” planned to attack NYC.
Everyone is being played.
This is just part of an orchestrated defense as to why the Obama adm. isn’t stopping terrorist attacks.
not really, but whaever. And it seems like the only thing that came out of that was some bureaucrats like hillary got embarrassed. And if that information was so important and secret, maybe giving kids access to it who aren't old enough to buy a six pack of Coors isn't such a great idea. Honestly I'm way past tired of the government taking a stupid decision like that and then pissing and moaning when the all too foreseeable results happens.
And? Did you have the same problem with Patton having a copy of Rommel's book?. And what happened to your opinion of someone after they called for your execution?
Heh...
I was always told that he helped those who helped themselves...
For instance...
We actually come together to END this tyranny by whatever means necessary.. HE would help us by giving us the courage and determination to keep going and push through when we felt like giving up.
I really hope those who believe that someone is gonna do it for them realize they are empowering the evil by doing nothing. No one is going to help them.
“Did you have the same problem with Patton having a copy of Rommel’s book?.”
Congratulations you have won the most ridiculous question of the day award.
As far as having Chaney’s book, he had it long BERORE DC made any comments.
You not only win the most ridiculous question award but also the most ridiculous statement award.
Wow...! I got an award from a random keyboard commando on the internet! Hazaah! My life is now complete.
Not yet we don’t but he has said there is a lot more to come. If by giving out info he betrays your methods etc then he may end up indirectly getting people killed because you intel can become compromised!
Great post! You make more sense than anyone else on here. Every conservative think that they alone are right and everyone else is wrong. Conservatives will never win, because they are “too principled” and won’t compromise.
I never thought of him of anything more than a self-confessed criminal. But if I were on the jury I would try to mullify the more serious charges.
If you haven't noticed everyone is wondering with all this ability to gather info why weren't terrorist attacks such as the attempted car bombing in NYC, and the Boston bombing stopped.
No, I never wondered that. My first posting on this topic was that NSA doesn't need to know my phone call records to find terrorists. Same applies to 100's of millions of other people. Multiply by 100's of records each. Now square that number, that's the minimum computations to perform even a rudimentary search.
They simply choke on all the extra data. Never mind the fact that it can be abused. It is useless.
I agree with you on this case. I had only read that Manning’s info got incompletely “scrubbed” by the Assange types and some names slipped through. These were foreign operatives that were helping us.
