In reply to the discussion: The NSA Said Edward Snowden Had No Access to Surveillance Intercepts. They Lied. [View all]rhett o rick
(55,981 posts)There is enough evidence produced by Snowden, other whistle-blowers, Senators, and even Gen Clapper, to warrant further investigations. Are you against further investigations? Are you really saying that we shouldn't make sure that the all powerful NSA/CIA group isn't overstepping their bounds? Are you saying that we, as citizens, don't have an obligation to make sure that this all powerful spy organization isn't violating the Constitution? Isn't using their spy systems for uses other than intended? That they don't need any oversight? What about wanting oversight and transparency is "skewed"?
Isn't blindly following authoritarian leadership skewed?
Attacking Snowden and other whistle-blowers is clearly attacking the messengers and surprising behavior for a supposedly liberal DU poster.
