That's what I don't get. What is the FEAR? Give me an example when the NSA or any government agency secret or not put anyone in jail or made them disappear or sent them to Guantanamo Bay? I want to believe you but you're not helping me. Example Occupy Wall Street. How many were arrested based on private communications and not by civil disobedience? Is there any documented proof? What about the three guys I wish I could remember their names, that actually told us what the NSA was doing years ago. Are they in jail?

What makes this guy a hero? gholtron Jun 2013 #4

I think he's a hero because he had a pole dancing girlfriend, railsback Jun 2013 #11

He presented documentary evidence. usGovOwesUs3Trillion Jun 2013 #13

So you're telling me gholtron Jun 2013 #22

No. I am telling you that this is the FIRST TIME docs have been produced usGovOwesUs3Trillion Jun 2013 #29

Nope. That was the leak 7 years ago. (nt) jeff47 Jun 2013 #33

You are simply misinformed then. usGovOwesUs3Trillion Jun 2013 #34

Nope. Documents were leaked to the NY Times in 2006. jeff47 Jun 2013 #84

He presented evidence for some of his claims. jeff47 Jun 2013 #28

He presented documentation, and his own experience. usGovOwesUs3Trillion Jun 2013 #30

Why, exactly, should I trust his experience? jeff47 Jun 2013 #32

Well, he actually worked in intel for years, and produced documentation as well. usGovOwesUs3Trillion Jun 2013 #36

Again, he documented some of his claims. Not all of them. jeff47 Jun 2013 #40

So, I guess you are willing to dismiss all because of that, but other find him very credible. usGovOwesUs3Trillion Jun 2013 #44

To inform the public. Only partisans feel that way. usGovOwesUs3Trillion Jun 2013 #18

that's why he leaked the info about spying on Medvedev right as Obama met with Putin?? MjolnirTime Jun 2013 #21
