SOURCE OF NSA VERIZON LEAK HAS VAMOOSED!

GOOD THING OR IS HE A TRAITOR?  
MY THOUGHTS.  

I am glad to see this "top secret" program come to light. I believe it is not appropriate to spy on the general American public unless you get a search warrant from a judge for EACH separate person's phone/email/medical info!  It's the First Amendment and Fourth Amendment, Stupid. Yes, Bush started this with the Patriot Act, but Obama has doubled down on it. How dare he spy on us, how dare he try to restrict our First and Fourth Amendment rights without due process?  Shame on him.  He won't even disclose his birth record, school records, immigration records, passport records, but he steals all of our information and stifles those who are opposed to his Socialist views.  Obama says this information can't be used without court approval.  Oh, Yeah?  Just look at what the IRS has done under Obama.  No one involved with him can be trusted.  


To Mr. Snowden, the "leaker," I suggest he watch his back, even in Hong Kong.  Obama has a short fuse and could easily eliminate this man through any means necessary.  And it wouldn't keep him awake at night.  Rest assured though, Obama will have no knowledge of it. Easily deniable. Totalitarianism has no conscience, and Obama is fast bringing us to that state in America. 

Ex-CIA Worker Revealed as Source of Spy Agency Leaks

Sunday, 09 Jun 2013 04:50 PM

An ex-CIA employee working as a contractor at the U.S. National Security Agency said he was the man who had leaked details of a top secret U.S. surveillance programme, acting out of conscience to protect "basic liberties for people around the world."

Holed up in a hotel room in Hong Kong, Edward Snowden, 29, said he had thought long and hard before publicising details of an NSA programme codenamed PRISM, saying he had done so because he felt his country was building an unaccountable and secret espionage machine that spied on every American.

Both the Washington Post and Britain's Guardian newspaper - to whom he gave the documents he had purloined - published his identity on Sunday.

"I don't want to live in a society that does these sort of things ... I do not want to live in a world where everything I do and say is recorded. That is not something I am willing to support or live under," he told the Guardian, which published a video interview with him on its website.

"The NSA has built an infrastructure that allows it to intercept almost everything. With this capability, the vast majority of human communications are automatically ingested without targeting. If I wanted to see your emails or your wife's phone, all I have to do is use intercepts. I can get your emails, passwords, phone records, credit cards," he said.
The Guardian published revelations this week that U.S. security services monitored data about phone calls from Verizon and Internet data from large companies such as Google and Facebook.

The exposure of the secret programmes has triggered widespread debate within the United States and abroad about the vast reach of the NSA, which has expanded its surveillance programmes dramatically in the last decade. U.S. officials say the agency operates within the law.
Snowden's decision to reveal his identity and whereabouts lifts the lid on one of the biggest security leaks in U.S. history and escalates a story that has embarrassed the administration of President Barack Obama.

His decision to go public also potentially exposes him to the wrath of the U.S. authorities. The Guardian compared him to Bradley Manning, a soldier now on trial for aiding the enemy, for passing classified military and state department files to anti-secrecy website Wikileaks.

Snowden, who said he had left his girlfriend in Hawaii without telling her where he was going, said he knew the risk he was taking, but thought the publicity his revelations had garnered in the past few days had made it worth it.

"My primary fear is that they will come after my family, my friends, my partner. Anyone I have a relationship with," he said. "I will have to live with that for the rest of my life. I am not going to be able to communicate with them. They (the authorities) will act aggressively against anyone who has known me. That keeps me up at night."

He spoke of his willingness to give up a comfortable life in Hawaii, where he earned about $200,000 a year: "I'm willing to sacrifice all of that because I can't in good conscience allow the U.S. government to destroy privacy, Internet freedom and basic liberties for people around the world with this massive surveillance machine they're secretly building."
Within minutes of Snowden's name being revealed by the Guardian he had become an instant folk hero.

At left-leaning U.S. blog The Daily Kos, contributor "Corvo" wrote "It's a shame that Edward Snowden won't be 36 years of age on 20 January 2017; otherwise I should want to vote for him to be our next president."

Snowden, a former CIA technical assistant, said he had been working at the super-secret NSA as an employee of defence contractor Booz Allen Hamilton and decided to break his silence after becoming disenchanted with Obama whom he said had continued the policies of predecessor George W. Bush.

"My sole motive is to inform the public as to that which was done in their name and that which is done against them," he said. "I understand that I will be made to suffer for my actions. I will be satisfied if the federation of secret law, unequal pardon and irresistible executive powers that rule the world that I love are revealed even for an instant."
The Guardian said Snowden had been working at the NSA for four years as a contractor for outside companies including Booz Hamilton and Dell.

Three weeks ago, he copied the secret documents at the NSA office in Hawaii where he works and told his supervisor he needed "a couple of weeks" off for treatment for epilepsy, the paper said. On May 20 he flew to Hong Kong, which he said he chose because "they have a spirited commitment to free speech and the right of political dissent".

In the video interview he looked relaxed, bespectacled and wearing a light beard and a dark grey shirt. The newspaper said he had only ventured outside three times since his arrival in Hong Kong and was fearful the CIA was going to come for him.
He said he was ultimately hoping that Iceland, which values Internet freedom, might grant him asylum.

The Guardian said he had stuffed pillows beneath his hotel room door to ward off snoopers and that he cloaked himself beneath a red hood when using his computer to try to keep his passwords safe.

JAMES ROSEN AND OBAMA'S JUSTICE DEPARTMENT

In addition to the Associated Press Obama's Justice Department also went after James Rosen, Fox News Washington correspondent.  They tapped into his emails and had him under surveillance.  I told you when He-Who-Thinks-He's-God was elected the first time that we should prepare for lies, graft, corruption and fraud in Washington.  I predicted Chicago Dems were going to bring crooked Chicago politics to national government, and so they have.  The shroud is starting to shred.  Be prepared.  This is just the beginning.  Since the Associated Press has been in the tank for Obama from the beginning, I wonder what they think now?

AMERICAN THINKER CRITIQUES OBAMA, AND IT ISN'T PRETTY

Here's a reprint of a column in the American Thinker written by Matt Patterson. He says what millions of us believe. And he is so right about The Affirmative Action President.

Obama: The Affirmative Action President by Matt Patterson, columnist, American Thinker

Years from now, historians may regard the 2008 election of Barack Obama as an inscrutable and disturbing phenomenon, a baffling breed of mass hysteria akin perhaps to the witch craze of the Middle Ages. How, they will wonder, did a man so devoid of professional accomplishment beguile so many into thinking he could manage the world's largest economy, direct the world's most powerful military, execute the world's most consequential job?

Imagine a future historian examining Obama's pre-presidential life: ushered into and through the Ivy League despite unremarkable grades and test scores along the way; a cushy non-job as a "community organizer"; a brief career as a state legislator devoid of legislative achievement (and in fact nearly devoid of his attention, so often did he vote "present"); and finally an unaccomplished single term in the United States Senate, the entirety of which was devoted to his presidential ambitions. He left no academic legacy in academia, authored no signature legislation as a legislator.

And then there is the matter of his troubling associations: the white-hating, America-loathing preacher who for decades served as Obama's"spiritual mentor"; a real-life, actual terrorist who served as Obama's colleague and political sponsor. It is easy to imagine a future historian looking at it all and asking: how on Earth was such a man elected president?

Not content to wait for history, the incomparable Norman Podhoretz addressed the question recently in the Wall Street Journal: To be sure, no white candidate who had close associations with an outspoken hater of America like Jeremiah Wright and an unrepentant terrorist like Bill Ayers, would have lasted a single day. But because Mr. Obama was black, and therefore entitled in the eyes of liberaldom to have hung out with protesters against various American injustices, even if they were a bit extreme, he was given a pass.

Let that sink in: Obama was given a pass -- held to a lower standard -- because of the color of his skin. Podhoretz continues: And in any case, what did such ancient history matter when he was also so articulate and elegant and (as he himself had said) "non-threatening," all of which gave him a fighting chance to become the first black president and thereby to lay the curse of racism to rest?

Podhoretz puts his finger, I think, on the animating pulse of the Obama phenomenon -- affirmative action. Not in the legal sense, of course. But certainly in the motivating sentiment behind all affirmative action laws and regulations, which are designed primarily to make white people, and especially white liberals, feel good about themselves.

Unfortunately, minorities often suffer so that whites can pat themselves on the back. Liberals routinely admit minorities to schools for which they are not qualified, yet take no responsibility for the inevitable poor performance and high drop-out rates which follow. Liberals don't care if these minority students fail; liberals aren't around to witness the emotional devastation and deflated self esteem resulting from the racist policy that is affirmative action. Yes, racist.

Holding someone to a separate standard merely because of the color of his skin -- that's affirmative action in a nutshell, and if that isn't racism, then nothing is. And that is what America did to Obama.

True, Obama himself was never troubled by his lack of achievements, but why would he be? As many have noted, Obama was told he was good enough for Columbia despite undistinguished grades at Occidental; he was told he was good enough for the US Senate despite a mediocre record in Illinois ; he was told he was good enough to be president despite no record at all in the Senate. All his life, every step of the way, Obama was told he was good enough for the next step, in spite of ample evidence to the contrary. What could this breed if not the sort of empty narcissism on display every time Obama speaks?

In 2008, many who agreed that he lacked executive qualifications nonetheless raved about Obama's oratory skills, intellect, and cool character. Those people -- conservatives included -- ought now to be deeply embarrassed. The man thinks and speaks in the hoariest of clichés, and that's when he has his teleprompter in front of him; when the prompter is absent he can barely think or speak at all. Not one original idea has ever issued from his mouth -- it's all warmed-over Marxism of the kind that has failed over and over again for 100 years.

And what about his character? Obama is constantly blaming anything and everything else for his troubles. Bush did it; it was bad luck; I inherited this mess. It is embarrassing to see a president so willing to advertise his own powerlessness, so comfortable with his own incompetence. But really, what were we to expect? The man has never been responsible for anything, so how do we expect him to act responsibly?

In short: our president is a small and small-minded man, with neither the temperament nor the intellect to handle his job. When you understand that, and only when you understand that, will the current erosion of liberty and prosperity make sense. It could not have gone otherwise with such a man in the Oval Office.

RUSH LIMBAUGH AND ASHLEY MADISON, THE REAL STORY

Ah, the truth, it is so fleeting. The latest claim from the Main Stream Media junk heap? A Washington Post reporter, Alexandra Petri, is reporting that Rush Limbaugh is now in bed with Ashley Madison. She swears it's true, Rush has lost so many advertisers that he's had to resort to partnering with an "adultery site" and is now allowing Ashley Madison to advertise on Rush's radio show. She's either intentionally lying or doesn't check facts before putting her computer clicking fingers into overdrive. She probably gets her info from Media Matters, and we all know they are sleeping with the White House. Here's the real story. Sure makes Ms. Petri look like the Liberal Loon that she is. No wonder no one trusts them.
