This is NOT a right or left wing issue. If it had happened under W or Clinton or H.W. or Reagan the outcome would be the same. This is not about the individual, this is about the system. The same corrupt system that promotes the welfare of corporations above individuals and it’s own inbred, plutocratic policies or accruing and retaining power and money.
Has anyone noticed the lack of investigative journalism into this blatantly unconstitutional program and the huge amount of kill the messenger vilification and “where’s Waldo” coverage on Snowden?
Snowden has admitted he got the job to violate the law. He’s made no reference to prior knowledge of wrong doing by the Government. He did all this to stroke his own childish fantasies. He’s no hero, just a selfish, dishonest, hemorrhoid.Snowden is discovering that nobody repairs a hemorrhoid, they just cut them out and throw them in the trash.
I’ll agree we don’t onow the whole story. What we do know is that the government was spying on us. As to Snowden taking the job based on a belief..,he was correct. As to it being a partisan issue, I disagree. Both of the parties are involvedin the practice. It’s a concern for the country.

Did you know about it before hand? Is the practice wrong and should the public be concerned about it? If yes to both, he’s a whistle blower.
