126. I think you are the one whose foot is in the wrong place.

It's very simple. Our elected officials and our military take an oath. It requires very little of them.

Perhaps you are not familiar with that oath. It asks them to 'defend and protect the Constitution of the US'. See, it isn't much to ask, and when they fail, or worse, cooperate with those who violate the Constitutional Rights of the American people, THEY become criminals.

When a citizen learns that their elected Reps are committing treason, because violating one's oath of office, helping to destroy the Constitutional Rights of the people who entrusted them with protecting those rights IS treason, that citizen is obligated to expose their crimes. Most of us do not have that kind of courage and most would simply remain silent. But every once in a while a Whistle Blower steps forward and does the right thing, they INFORM the people of the corruption they have witnessed.

In today's America, Whistle Blowers are being persecuted, tortured, accused of egregious crimes and jailed for 35 years.

But the actual crimes are never investigated. Whistle Blowers from now on know that they will be persecuted, see Chelsea Manning and ask yourself why his revelations did not result in an investigation of Bush War Crimes.

When elected officials cooperate with Private 'Security' Corps who are breaking the law, and those Private Security Corps are receiving BILLIONS of tax dollars to break the law with the approval of Congress, and a Whislte Blower exposes those Private Security Corps (Clapper's old Corp, Booz Allen in this case) they are in no way acting against their country.

Unless you believe that Private Corporations rule this country and are entitled to 'loyalty' when they break our laws.

Since Clapper lied to Congress, it is possible he has lied before in order to fund his old Corporation.

Revealing the corrupt practices of Private Corporations who have lied to Congress is what you are talking about.

Now perhaps we can start removing the power Bush gave to these Corporations, Clapper is an old friend of his.

So what is your point? That American citizens should protect the corruption of Private Corporations who are acting in the name of the US when in fact they are violating EVERYONE'S Constitutional Rights, and are doing so ONLY because they lied to Congress?

What nonsense.
