Edward Snowden: Traitor or Hero?

Anyway.. James Clapper has just said that telling people about what the NSA was doing, hasn't damaged the capability of the NSA, and that they should have done that anyway.

JamesClapper said:
Had we been transparent about this from the outset right after 9/11 – which is the genesis of the 215 program – and said both to the American people and to their elected representatives, we need to cover this gap, we need to make sure this never happens to us again, so here is what we are going to set up, here is how it’s going to work, and why we have to do it, and here are the safeguards … We wouldn’t have had the problem we had.”

Mind you.. he was the person who told the senate that it wasn't happening at all. So I'm sure he's going to be completely honest about this from going forward...... sigh

Please, you're not giving the current liar his due credit.

Allow me to. ;)

Sure every other president lied, but there's a couple BIG differences.

I'd say Most all the rest weren't simply devoid of any human conscience like the current liar. They actually CARED whether or not their lies were found out. Most were career politicians who'd be Schooled Well at being liars, they KNEW how to do it well and most of the time, NOT get caught.

You can't compare THEM to the current inexperienced, short time, small time community organizer's complete lack of Skill in lying nor even his Complete Lack of Any Concern of Any ramifications of doing so should he be caught. He just doesn't give a damn. And, he's just The Crappiest Liar of ALL of them to boot.

When I was about 8 my mother told me that I'd NEVER be a good liar. That my body language screamed Way Too Loudly every time I attempted one that I was doing just that.

It's unfortunate for this country and yea, even Barrack hisownsef that HIS mother was too busy filling his head full of anti-Imperialistic U.S.A. thoughts to actually school him on his inability to be any semblance of a GOOD liar.

Please.

Give credit where credit it due. :D
