Do you agree with John Boehner that Edward Snowden is a traitor?

54. I point you again to the 4th Amendment, that is all we need to know. Our representatives take an

to 'defend and protect the Constitution of the US'. When they remain silent, when they vote for a bill that is totally contradicts the law of the land, they have betrayed that oath. And when that happens, sooner or later those laws get thrown on the trash heap of history, labeled 'one more attempt to undermine this democracy destroyed'.

I asked what probable cause was established to get a warrant to spy on millions of people. We need to know this now. Because without that very important legal requirement for a warrant, there is no warrant. Unless of course you do not recognize the US Constitution as the law of the land.

Thankfully and finally, at last, these egregious violations of our rights are going to be challenged where they belong, in a PUBLIC court. Enough with the 'secret courts' that is not the way of democracy.

You cannot tell me how they got a warrant against millions of people because you just don't know. And THAT is what is wrong about these ridiculous pieces of paper that have passed for laws over the past several years.

The very fact that Private for-profit Corporations have our rights in their hands is simply unacceptable. I hope this whole thing results in a PUBLIC debate about whether we want to continue to 'trust' people we did not elect with our rights, or whether we want to restore the rule of law where war criminals and Wall St. criminals do not get a 'get out of jail free' card.

You may be happy that Cheney and Bush were never properly investigated for the horrific crime of starting wars that cost so many lives based on LIES. But to most people I know, all over the political spectrum it is a sore that will not heal and a stain on this country.

If we are to survive as a democracy respected around the world, with some kind of moral authority, we must return to the rule of law.

The past decade this country has become a lawless place with Corporations writing our 'laws'. It is simply and totally unacceptable, something btw, everyone here agreed on when Bush was in the WH.
