EUGENE ROBINSON: America Should Thank Snowden For Revealing NSA Snooping

[Thinkingabout]

95. Well, we can begin again to see if you can understand.

Starting with post #9 I posted

"9. Credit should be given where it is due, try George Bush talking about this in 2005.

Maybe Snowden slept from 2005 to 2013."

Speaking of sleeping....where where you in 2004?

This is from a bio on Judge Kollar-Kotelly on wikipedia: One of her 'notable' cases:


On July 14, 2004, barely two months after President Bush was forced to end NSA domestic internet metadata collection by Attorney General John Ashcroft, Kollar-Kotelly issued a FISA court order allowing the NSA to resume unconstitutional domestic internet metadata collection. "

"84. Did Snowden go a press conference in 2005 and say the records were being examined?

I was speaking to the fact George Bush gave the information in 2005 and if my calculations serves me correctly this was before GG came out with his column and Snowden claimed he was the one in 2013, as you say just saying, please proceed Snappy. "

87. Gave what information in 2005? I have no idea what Snowden

was doing in 2005. Actually, in re-reading your post I find it incoherent."


I don't understand why it is so difficult for you to understand George Bush spoke of collecting phone call data in a press conference in the year of 2005 and to have some apparently think the first release of this type of information occurred in 2013. So many wants to give credit to Snowden for revealing this information, I said the credit should go to Bush since he gave this information well before Snowden did.
