3. John Lewis (who I respect greatly) is NOT a member of the Select Committe on Intelligence

and like the rest of us, can not possibly have all the information that is being secreted from both the populace and most, if not all, of Congress.

6. Neither is Snowden, the leaker. n/t

[hlthe2b]

13. That comparison is a complete nonsequitor...

That Snowden had access to information that even Congress did not is not at issue--even the admin has acknowledged that. As have Wyden and udall-- both Democrats and ACTUAL members of the Congressional Select committee on intelligence.

[pnwmom]

25. I was responding to a complete nonsequitor.

Lewis doesn't have to be a member of the Congressional Select committee to know that Snowden isn't equivalent to MLK or Ghandi.

[hlthe2b]

28. No. you were responding to my response to a comment that pointed to Lewis as the preeminant

source of information on all things NSA and thus any opinion he offers to be taken as gospel. As much as I respect Congressman Lewis, the fact he is NOT on the Select Committee clearly underscores why that is NOT the case.

Your comment in response to mine is thus a total nonsequitor.

4. Are you really taking Diane Feinstein over Edward Snowden?

[cherokeeprogressive]

9. "That's classified." n/t

[millennialmax]

11. In a heartbeat. Diane Feinstein is a cornerstone of the U.S. Senate. eom

[Th1onein]

17. And her hubby makes a lot of money off of the surveillance industry.

Cornerstone? ROFLMAO

[Oilwellian]

24. Oh man

A cornerstone of the senate? I have seen it all baby!

[phleshdef]

15. Yes.

Next question.

[Wilms]

5. Are you really taking unwarranted search over the Constitution?

Really?

[kelliekat44]

7. Absolutely not!! nt

[olddots]

8. bait & switch

[MannyGoldstein]

10. I sometimes disagree with my wife

Should we divorce when that happens?

[NoMoreWarNow]

18. apparently the author of the OP thinks so

[PowerToThePeople]

12. Who are you taking it from?

Your NSA talking points?

[Rex]

14. Why would I?

But then again I've always said Snowden ain't no whistle-blower.

[millennialmax]

16. Those who would disparage Rep. John Lewis over a cretin like Snowden should lose all credibility.

EOFM

[Th1onein]

19. ROFLMAO!

[HangOnKids]

21. I Second the ROFLMAO

[Union Scribe]

20. Are you really taking Cheney over Wyden?

Look, I can make false dilemmas too!

[SomethingFishy]

22. Are you really looking to make a list of supporters and non supporters?

You are siding with Dick Fucking Cheney.


It's a stupid useless game but if you want to play you also have KKKarl Rove on your side. Bush too. Want to keep going? John Yoo is also on your side. Shall we play some more?

[hrmjustin]

26. Well it is more Congressman Lewis versus the Guardian!

I take the Congressman at his word he was misrepresented.

Everyone has the right to their opinion on Snowden.

[lamp_shade]

27. Clearly some here are. No surprise.

[bravenak]

29. Where is your poll?

I like to do the polls.
The answer is no.
I wish I could have clicked a button.
