Link to video: NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden: ‘I don’t want to live in a society that does these

I tried to post the link, it came from “the Gaurdian”.
Step by step gentlmen.Nobodys views or thinking matters in the least.
We have a choice, stop the process or accept it.

Our choice to accept it or not lies at the ballot box. In my opinion you don’t put your country and national security at risk by revealing classified information. The problem is the 55% of the people that are brain dead to everything but Hollywood stars and the worthless T.V programs. Most do not even know who the V.P. is let alone worry about their rights being eroded away. The other problem is the administration leaking classified information to the press for political gain. One would expect this behavior from this corrupt administration but again they can be removed at the ballot box.

I wonder if the leak was deliberate. A ploy in effect. What if the NSA does not really have all the calls and data that is claimed? That they are just being exposed as the most incredibly omnipotent organization on the planet to sow fear amongst the enemy? Could this all be a ruse aimed at political intimidation both domestically and abroad? Would the tactic not send the bad guys running and break their covers (assuming there are still spooks in Washington and other cities). If that is the case then this event would have the effect of clearing the decks so to speak and the bad guys would be exposed simply by their rush to get out of the country or head for cover. It would be the coup of a lifetime for the guys who run ops in US Intelligence and I can only assume that whether that idea of mine is right or wrong, that everyone is working overtime watching their favorite suspects to see if they break for the fences. You would really have to admire the genius of it all if true. My contention is that this might really be a psychological game that is being played.

Thats a thought bird, Paul Craig Roberts is pretty well informed, Cathrine Austin Fitts, Doug Casey years ago said it was coming. 30s-40s facists did the same thing, watching and recording, then years later prosecuted.
I watched the video of a 29 yo man, wonderful life everything going for him and he exposes. Why? Maybe your right, but we know that computer was/is being built, in Virginia?

If we look back to the 30s and 40s, we see the same opinions and arguments from the people, those who think exposers are treasonous, those that oppose as best they could, ultimatly people acted way too late if at all. And camps became employed, remember the rumour of them existed then too, which few believed, last count I read was 900 fema camps built in North America now.
In the 40s, we used “concentration” camps for people of Japanese decent, took everything they worked for, so to say it cant happen or we shouldnt be aware that it could would be naive at best, so, who will it be this time? Or maybe the question is who do they start with this time? Time will tell, maybe I am paranoid, but I alwys figured just because Im paranoid doesnt mean their not out to get me.

Always assume that government is evil and to survive you must realize this. Their policies are always for power and control. That is why their actions are never in the name of freedom, but just gaining in more power and control over citizens.

I dont know what it is that needs to be done, but the thought occued, what if they should decide its the investers that are too well informed? The religous focused on their church are no worry, the gang members are no worry, the bankers or oil people and military are of no concern, so who is their threat? Who ever they decide, it was grampa Bush that supplied fuel for the luftwaffe and serin gas to the facist, later his child and grandchild become presedent for the opposition to his buisiness interests.
A psychopath has no empathy, no concience and no remorse. Think the Bushes regrett killing 500 thousand children in Iraq alone?

I have no idea what needs to be done, but I do believe it becomes more obvious where we go when good men do nothing. At least Assange,Manning and now Snowden do what they see they can do. Dangerous to be right when your government is wrong. We need be aware now that everything we say and do is watched and decided upon if its treason or not, and its psychopaths that do the deciding. Course, security could be worth it. I feel so warm and fuzzy good being secure.
Thats my rant for the day, thanks for putting up with it.

Our Government and those who run it have forgotten that the power comes from “we the people”. Monitoring calls, the internet, etc may not be wrong, but keeping it totally secert, lying to the American people, and telling us the those elected officails & the burecrats know what is best in just wrong. Ben Franklin said to “If one gives up freedom to have security, he deserves neither.”

The current administration seems to be punishing the whistle blowers and promting those who look the the other way. Lybia, Fast & furious, IRS, etc. I think our Government is out of control which leads to the populus not trusting the leadership. I’d like to see a DOJ which was honested and required others to be honest, unfortunately Holder doesn’t seem to understand the importance of that word or the position he holds. All the other agencies seem to follow his lead & the President seems to avoid noticing.

Snowden reported that with the tap of a button (or two maybe?), NAS insiders could “check up” (profile) anyone. Now just think mission creep folks – what if you made the “wrong” vote, or perhaps went to the wrong church or maybe you did some wild (but illegal) thing in college. Gee, NAS might just find the need to remind you of your ways & threaten you with exposure or prosecution or both or worse – especially if you happened to be on the wrong side of the political fence. Or maybe you are just planning some coordinated citizen’s effort to right some of the transgressions a bloated federal bureaucracy is perpetuating on “we the people” such a Citizens United, the Monsanto Protection Act or rampant, cancerous growths such as the NSA or Obamacare. This is not government of the people, by the people and certainly not for the people. It is government for itself (which if history is any guide is the fate of any and all institutions that get too big and powerful enough – can you name a few?) If you think NSA is just a nice big bureaucracy there only to protect us from those nasty, nasty terrorists you might just be interested in some prime ocean front property in the middle of the Sahara desert or better yet on Mars. Power corrupts and the veil of secrecy on this one was masking such a Stink no one could miss it unless they were intentionally holding their nose while jumping up and down and yelling “Treason.” A Holder of that nature can be real trouble in case you haven’t noticed.

Whether you agree or disagree, isn’t the data collected through mobile phones equal to a daily report to the government regarding who your spoke to, what time, how long and probably where you were?
I don’t know where I stand yet on collecting this data without some notice, but it sure does nail down what we do day to day.

Now more scandals, it should be called instead of Watergate II, it should be called Floodgate, Newest scandal Leaked Footage of Famous Holloywood Producer Claiming Obama Silenced Bill Clinton by threating his daughter Chelsea http://www.mrconservative.com/2013/06/18910-leaked-footage-of-famous-hollywood-producer-claiming-obama-silenced-clinton-by-threating-chelsea/ And she`s a Democrat who was working for Hillary`s campaign in 2008, when Bill kept talking about Obama`s Birth ID was a fake, then. This is not just written but its a video……

Let’s face it, Al is a hopeless case, and does not deserve either liberty or security. Someone whose family fled from the Commies, but forgets what a kompromat is as soon as he reads some WSJ op-ed written by some NY scumbag from the former criminal administration.
