What is James Clapper’s Booz Allen stock worth? He was after all an executive with the company before leaving to work in “intelligence”.

If this is the case then he should have some very damming evidence that can not be disputed.

Well, at least he didn’t try to set off World War 3.

I’m still of the opinion this guy is an Obama and Hillary operative and this is part of the Benghazi cover up.

Its not shocking the NSA is spying on other countries.
The big shock is it was spying on all Americans.

So, while the NSA was spying on the rest of us to “keep us safe”, they couldn’t keep their own information safe - this high school dropout just walked in, and walked away with all kinds of classified information.

Obama /US is looking incompetent on the world stage.

Would he really have set this in motion???

Maybe like Benghazi he started something and it got out of control.

But I don’t buy into Obama starting this on purpose. He is looking like a buffoon.

Maybe Hillary.

Why?

It doesn’t need to be covered up. America does not care or do not even know about it in general, and the repubicans are not going to do anything at all.

Obama could come out tomorrow and say the whole thing was a set up to deal the blind sheik back to the mozlums, and that they let them all die on purpose and then lied about it and arrested an innocent man, and NOTHING would be done about it.

He wasn’t just a high school drop out

“In an attempt to learn secret financial information, Snowden alleged that undercover CIA agents would get the banker drunk and “encourage” him to drive home in his car. When the banker was eventually arrested for drunk driving, the CIA operatives offered to help him out of the jam, paving the way for recruitment as a source.

“Much of what I saw in Geneva really disillusioned me about how my government functions and what its impact is in the world,” Snowden told The Guardian. “I realized that I was part of something that was doing far more harm than good.”

The good news is...

If Snowden is caught, convicted and imprisoned...

When he’s released, he can go back to work for Booz Allen again because the EEOC says Booz Allen can’t base their hiring/non-hiring on criminal background checks/convictions.

Yes, the spying on other countries is what the NSA is supposed to be doing. Revealing those documents may actually be traitorous, Exposing the spying on average Americans and storing the data is something that we need to know about and stop. Storing the data for future use has the potential of creating a police state.

I wonder how many Chinese nationals are working for the company. It seems to be a longstanding problem that we don’t have the stones to talk about.
