Well, let's hear it - what is Snowden? The progressive liberal, politicians and especially the white house are calling Snowden a traitor. Personally, I disagree. My opinion is that he only told the truth and revealed some dishonest activity by the Obama administration. They profess to have our interests at heart when they listen in to our phone conservations and look into our bank accounts to trace how we spend money. There is no law that allows personal intrusions such as these. Plus the fact that we have drones spying on us as well. Are the drones armed?
What is so bad about this to call Snowden a traitor. All he revealed is what the FBI, CIA and Homeland Security are doing which is against the law. If this really started back in the Clinton administration, why are they blaming Bush? I am more disappointed in my government now than any time in the past 50 or so years. I hope that either Russia or Cuba offers this hero sanctuary.

Like yourself, I am wondering about this one.

It's real simple, really, if the administration is Republican, he's a Whistleblower, a Brave Patriot, a Hero, but if the administration is Democrat, then he is a Traitor, an Enemy of the State, a servant of the evil racist Right.

I see that more and more details about the US spying on foreign diplomats, embassies, troop movements and the sex life of top political leaders and elected officials. WOW! I thought that Obama promised a more "open" administration and "no behind the back deals" ? Well, thanks to Snowden - he's getting it. I still think that Snowden is no criminal or traitor. He gave out no secrets that would endanger any other spy, no troops would be in dire trouble. He just told the world that Obama and his administration was sneakey and dishonest. We already knew that so what's the beef?

I just had to add to this post. Two days ago the FOX network reported on the crash of a drone. Was it somewhere in the US or in a war zone. I couldn't find anything more about it since there was no mention in the papers or on any other network. I could have sworn it was in the US but I'm not sure. I hope it was watching on the mating habits of some extinct creature but who knows?
