No, It's just another attempt at deflection from people who cannot rationally defend the NSA/PRISM
Some people have such emotional investment in President Obama that they cannot attack the governments actions without taking a swipe at their own egos.
At the same time any rational person can see that what the NSA is doing is horrible for the country and a gross violation of privacy. No true liberal can defend it without appearing like a hypocritical neo-con.
So they are left with attacking the messenger calling everyone a libertarian, paul bot, etc. It's sad.
