Well Ben Franklin spent most of the Revolutionary War in France drumming up support and exposing the Brits. To bad they don't teach history any longer, of were you stoned in school.
A dumbed down populace will never know what hit them and will accept everything the government tells them at face value.

Those that don't know their history are doomed to repeat it.

Under Bush the CIA would have already had him in custody. Obama has made us weak.

Our "hero" Snowden has landed in Moscow. After he has shared his secrets with the Russians, he plans to continue his tour to Cuba and Venezuela. He'll probably hit North Korea eventually. What a patriot

I agree to some extent. They should have killed him while he was in Hong Kong. It would have sent a strong who's-the-boss message. Obama is often weak with his enemies. He lets Republicans in Congress walk all over him as well. Compromise and diplomacy have their place, but there is a time to act and a time to kill and Obama has trouble with recognizing that.

Obama's too interested in being liked especially by his lib pals in NYC and Washington. Bush could care less about these folks defending the country was his number 1 job.

Jones never met a conspiracy he didn't support - Trutherism is left-wing:

One prominent truther is former U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney, D-Ga. Another is former Obama White House aide Van Jones (whose resignation late Saturday came after it was learned his name appears on a truther petition demanding further investigation of the events surrounding 9/11)

Absolutely a distraction.

The press is making it all about Snowden, not what Snowden uncovered.
They did the same to Manning..it's all about Manning and no one cares about the atrocities committed by the US that Manning uncovered.
