and then see if you don't admire him!

If only there were more in government with one iota of his conscience,and willingness for self-sacrifice!

I admire such a person thousands time more than brainless/no conscience automatons,that never listen to their conscience,and commit atrocities so easily because they were simply being loyal to their boss and following orders.

Hmmm wasn't that the excuse the NAZIS used for the holocaust?

Those who want government to spy on them should pack up and move to Russia or China or Iran. Such people do not deserve to live in a free society. end quote



The FIRST item in both the Military oath AND the CIA oath demand support and defense of the Constitution against ALL enemies, both FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC. According to you, that part of th oath may be ignored at will so long as you are marching in lockstep with those who would destroy our freedom.

Check out how the government has stomped on NSA employees who tried to report NSA violations through the system:

USA Today Article

Is this the America you want to live in? I DONT!
Exactly-the oath is defending the Constitution against ALL enemies-domestic and foreign. The oath is not to blindly follow orders from the very men that ARE traitors to this country.


And right now domestic enemies are doing FAR more harm to our country and within our Government than any foreign enemy ever could. It is dangerous to ignore the threat from within.

This is why the government can get away with this. When this information first broke the left was all over Snowden also because of the way it hurt Obama.

sorry but I don't listen to rush limpballs

but I am Army retired after 26 years in service, and a federal employee with a TS security clearance

I DO understand that he violated his job, and his loyalty to his country

he took this oath:
Quote:
The CIA oath reads: “I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.â€
and at the time of his job (right up till a few days ago)it WAS constitutional, his JOB and OATH was to do the JOB and bear true faith and allegiance to HIS COUNTRY who is employing him

not LIE and take the JOB just to find out secrets to ILLEGALLY reveal them....he is a TRAITOR...he DID subversive acts against his country and his security clearance

Odd, to me the traitors are those who illegally spy on us.

and you know he deliberately lied to get the job and steal secrets how? ESP? Did you bother to read my reference to the USA article on the three NSA whistleblowers who tried to go through the system and have been harassed by the government ever since?

Why do you ignore the most important part of the oath? "I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic..."
