We did in fact have much more startling and upsetting things we found out in the bush administration. Such as we found out that the admin and I guess NSA were listening in on any phone calls they wanted to ... so, when their knickers were pulled off ... they and CONGRESS mostly congress, got busy to make it legal.. they constructed the Fisa Court ...which made it most certainly o.k. to listen to ( and god knows what else ) to anyone we wanted to .. as long as we went to the court. I believe that still stands today, all though I think it's been tweaked some. Then there was the week, when the public found out ( or at lease me) just exactly what we gave away in the 'patriot act'? geez was that what they called it .. anyway.. that pretty much made everything that 'may' upset you legal .. .to keep it simple, Torture became acceptable and Reagan signed the Geneva Convention to make that stop! .. bush ignored that .. and tortured anyway. oh yes and of course all across the world 'renditions' ... disappearing people ... then Guantanamo imprisoning people without charges and without telling them when they would get out or sentenced or even go to court ... AND we had a 'whistle blower' .. a real one, the guy who worked with the people picked up across the world .. like Kalie Sheik Muhammad oh I can't remember the other names .. anyway, he told AND he was hidden and his voice was altered at a senate committee hearing about how He has gotten all the information that the physical tortures got after waterboarding Sheik Muhammad ..He was a normal officer in charge of getting information from detainees .. as we did before bush, without torture... geeez I think they waterboarded him something like 90 something times .. in other words ... without torture, He, the guy before bush, got the same information ... and yet ... . the cia had to almost kill a guy for information they already had ... oh goodness there was so many things ...
I was plenty mad 8 years ago ... the difference is this ... I have not been assaulted by this admin, as you know I do have differences with it, but I'm sure not afraid to wake up in the morning and find out we have assaulted another country somewhere, for no other reason than oil for our oil companies ... if you ever think I would trust some admin. that lied us into a war with an Innocent Country (Iraq) ... ..I'm here to tell you that it all goes downhill from there ... ...I appreciate ending wars, NOT starting them. Thank YOU, Obama.
Snowden? what I don't like about him is two things, I'll tell you one.. he says that he did this to protect our fourth amendment, well now any fool can see that's not true, as a matter of fact he spilled very little about US .. the phone companies, meta data was the first thing that was blasted in three papers and that's it, & we already knew about that from the FISA thing that made that okay .. Then of course he, snowden was impelled I guess to spill all our foreign open circuits ... in which had nothing NOTHING, at all to do with our fourth amendment! ... so, the truth is 'He, snowden, just wanted to hurt his own country while soothing that itch that drove him to notoriety .. .he got the fame his ego needed ... and He hurt the United States. Closed off two foreign circuits completely .. for now that is, or maybe they have fixed them by now__The Chinese Government Thanks You, Edward Snowden
