NSA: Greenwald Accuses Mika Of Using 'Completely False' WH Talking Points
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 06/10/2013 6:10:17 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Things got feisty on Morning Joe today, as Glenn Greenwald of the Guardian clashed with Mika Brzezinski over the leak of the NSA phone surveillance program by Greenwald's informant, Edward Snowden. H/t NB reader Jeff M.

When Brzezinski alleged that wiretapping or the review by the NSA of emails required an additional judicial review and warrant, Greenwald accused Mika of using "White House talking points" that were "completely misleading and false." Mika denied it.

"Do you believe Mika when she denies using White House talking points?"

I don't even believe Mika when she mentions what the weather is like outside.

It’s sad to see these “journalists” sell themselves to the White House.

“Feisty”? Just the beginning. CWII is underway. Things are about to get very unpleasant.

Everybody knows that Mika gets her cues over her I-Phone from Valerie Jenkins at the White House.

Didn’t Mika actually admit to getting text messages directly from the WH while she was on the air?

Greenwald is peddling a story from an 'informant' who says he could, at will, tap into the President's emails.

hmmm ~ the eyes glaze over, and roll back in the head.

Anyone stop and think these guys are full of shi'ite?

Morning Joe crowd are probably not the best sort to provide any sort of defense to anything though ~ no credibility themselves.

They will take as much from us as they can without alerting us to their intent, and without using overt violence.

But they WILL use violence when then can no longer take more from us without using it.

Would the Founding Fathers have considered tracking the correspondents for every single American's communications to be consistent with, "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."? This is a shocking violation of the 4th Amendment.

Tracking everyone we exchange email with is an unreasonable search and seizure, even if we pretend to trust the White house claim that they are not actually listening or reading as they collect this massive data set. This program must be stopped immediately, and the government must be scaled back to a size where they are no longer capable of collecting domestic data on this scale.

As for Mika, whether she believes in tyranny as the only way to control us to the degree she considers necessary or she is paid to advocate that position, I don't pay any attention to the content of her propaganda. She in not on America's side.

That’ll get you down to her stop sign post legs in seconds ~ if she finds out those are the rules.

Mika Brzezinski historical account is correct. I remember the liberals were up in arms over Bush's warrantless wire taps under certain conditions. However, the liberals apparently voted to give this power to the executive branch under subsequent revisions to the Patriot act and allow the government to keep the meta data of all US domestic calls. So he is correct that the White House is misleading in its talking points- the NSA can listen to certain foreign to US calls.

Are we to believe the government is not listening to other phone calls?

Would the Founders do what? Did you ever hear about the federal government's letter mail monopoly? That even covers checks you write!

Some of the Founders were around when they wrote the first of the laws setting up the post office and those restrictions.

Mail covers have been allowed since time began BTW ~ AND ~ lo and behold, the post office is a constitutional office and it's owned by the gub'mnt itsef!

I think the ability of far too many here on FR to attack the messenger rather than consider and investigate his accusations to be highly disturbing.

The ability of so many to fall into line and support any bureaucracy with the words “defense” “security” or “intelligence” in its title is sad.

When you find yourself in a battle and the people in the foxholes on either side are Mika and Maddow, you might want to question what it is that you are actually fighting for.

Nobody watches this show and I fail to understand why this stooopid website insists on giving them ANY coverage at all.

JUST IGNORE THEM.
