In reply to the discussion: Whistleblower My Ass: Snowden's Russia Connection Confirmed by Putin [View all]delrem
(9,688 posts)I'm thankful that Snowden blew the whistle on the NSA spying, because that spying makes me feel secure.
And I'm thankful that the US Pres. is going to ramp up the Syrian war, and I'm on the edge of my seat with anticipation for what comes next - because war makes me feel secure.
It's just the way I'm made, I guess, that I LIKE it that gov't reasoning, interpretations, and sources are all totally secret, because (refrain) secrecy makes me feel secure. And it's a feature of US democracy.
But even though I like what Snowden did, because he showed me just how secure I am in the bosom of the NSA, Homeland Security, and the CIA, I despise Snowden for not facing the music - and the fact that he won't face the music proves that he's a traitor and should be put to death. Given a fair trial first, of course, like Manning.
