    Don;t give me that shit. He is officially a traitor and that's a fact.
    Center for Security Policy
    "The report by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (where I worked for five years) found what many of us have long argued: Snowden is not a whistleblower; he is a disgruntled former intelligence employee who did enormous damage to U.S. national security."

    Boo boo. Fuck the NSA and their unconstitutional practices. Needed to be shut down along time ago. They work outside of anything moral or ethical or even legal. Complete scum.

    I made one, but used a smartass thread title about the guy's name being Barrack and pissed someone off so I deleted it.

    Revealing our sources of information was extremely damaging to our capabilities of gathering information about the bad guys.
