I find this entire subject absolutely hilarious. Like we didn't know that the govts of the world were spying on their own people and other govts for years. Long before 9/11 and the patriot act there were spies and espionage so this is not news to anyone with half a brain. The fact the US has publicly made a spy out of the guy who it employed as a spy is nothing short of utter stupidity. I mean really, charging a former cia employee with spying? Isn't that their job? And charging him with revealing national security secrets only serves to confirm that he was releasing true information. I have to wonder about the intelligence of those running the show when they try to vilify someone by confirming he is correct in his assertions the govt spies on it's own citizens. Of course I question more the intelligence of the populace who ignore that Snowden is correct in favor of blind faith in a govt that is spying on them. :roll:

Sheeple don't think, they just accept what they are told to think. If they had the capacity for critical thought they would make him a national hero. Somebody will eventually hit sheeple across the head with a big enough 2 X 4 to wake them up..... hopefully.

Remember the olden days when men like Snowden were welcomed with open arms and given asylum in the west? Remember Gouzenko?

Geezuz Spade, I had no idea you were that old! That was before I was born. I had to look him up.

Governments don't like their dirty laundry exposed to the public unless it is another government's dirty laundry. Kids in a sandbox have more sense of fair play than politicians and spies do.

Good night, Nuggler. Save me a beer for old times' sake. Or, save me some sake.
