Until This Situation With Syria Is Resolved, Discussing The NSA Is In Bad Taste And Unpatriotic

[LearningCurve]

Plus, it will give aid and comfort to the enemy. Also, keep in mind, if not for the surveillance programs, we would not have intercepted calls confirming the atrocity in Syria. These programs will also allow us to pinpoint the locations to prevent more outrages in Syria, thereby saving countless lives. Did I miss anything?

Oh yeah, this ....

1. Discussion .....?

Now using that word clearly deserves.

2. The source of the intercepts was the IDF Unit 8200, the Israeli NSA. Not ours.

So, I guess we shant speak ill of Israeli intelligence for the duration of hostilities, plus one year. Yes, Sir!

3. Cowboy up man!, get into the spirit of it

or you will lose your lickspittle credentials, but no worries it seems to be no matter there are plenty around to replace you.

Never thought I would see another cowboy President, but here we go...again. My only question is, that while sure the dip in the poll numbers were a bit harsh in recent months, but to kill to rectify them?

4. is it still okay to discuss

twerking?

Plus, I head Michael Douglass was getting a divorce from Faith Hill.

5. I was afraid you were going to say Douglas was twerking

Now there's a sight for no sober man.

6. There are young folks, Obama voters, ready to leave the Democratic Party over blanket surveillance.

I have talked to a few of them. This is the generation that uses social media extensively.

They absolutely hate this data collection.

The Democratic Party better make a stand or lose a sizeable chunk of the next generation.

I would hate to come back with an OP in 2014, linking exit poll data, and writing "I told ya so"

7. 2016 is where the rubber is likely to meet the road

Depending on who runs, and who gets nominated, of course. Whoever the most credible candidate ant-spying candidate is, is likely to get a significant portion of the demographic you mentioned.

8. This is absolutely true

The republicans likely will not gain them (though a more libertarian minded type may attract some). Most will be turned off of politics altogether.

The NSA spying, along with an intervention in Syria could drive many younger people from any involvement. Many are incredibly cynical as it is due to the stranglehold corporate lobbyists have on DC.

9. Yep. Everybody shut up.
