Bill Kristol is another village idiot who inherited his GOPe gig from his father.

Big establishment insider who would have hated the framers.

Rich dummy who dislikes Palin and tea-drinkers.

And apparently may be using the same talking points that the White House and Democrats use. They love to use the word ‘conflating’ now.

Yes, he’s right.

In his eyes.

He knows that this represents a big problem for the financial oligarchy that he reports to.

All the financial oligarchy’s misdeeds, the crime, the wars, the lies to the public, it’s all, in the minds of the oligarchs’ minions, in the interest of “national security”.

Quick, oligarchs, get Michael Moore to side with the leaker.

This will make well-trained conservatives instinctively fall into line and oppose Moore, and by association, the leaker.

Man, this globalism is easy once you get the hang of it.

Ignorant of how America feels... it’s the DC disease.

We trust the government far, far less that we did just a few years ago. And it never was much trust to begin with. Kristol and others [peter king for example] just don’t seem to get it. For crying out loud it’s people like peter king who are supposed to prevent these abuses, not allow and encourage them!

No longer are such a number of us willing to allow gov’t to use its “good judgment and discretion” in its governance.

This wave of distrust is not getting smaller.

Mary Matalin allowed James Carville to breed.

I don’t listen to anything she says.

Some “conservative”.

We wouldn’t need the NSA if we barred all Muslims from immigrating or obtaining visas, and if we enforced our immigration laws. Remember, Mohammed Atta and 5 other hijackers were STOPPED with EXPIRED VISAS prior to 9/11. All 5 were RELEASED pending a hearing. Atta didn’t show up. The others killed Americans before their hearing dates. Had Arizona’s SB1070 been in effect in FL, Atta’s immigration status would have been checked and his expired visa discovered.

Byron York you are an elitist Pig period.

Bill Bennett you ought to be ashamed of yourself for challenging the status qou of the Collegiate System as it is, and yet you didn't stick up for this bright kid as he chose a different path with his brillance and made it. Hypocracy alert...

“Kristol didn’t buy it. “They’re not allowed to go into that data until they have a warrant signed off on by a judge,” he said.”

Elite talking points.

Yep, the reason why EVERY SINGLE GOPe type is giving a “full throated” defense of the NSA, is because it is an absolutely essential component of an open boarders policy.

NO DAMMIT, it is a big deal because of the track record of our imperial president. This isn’t some one off in the war on terror, this is a corrupt administratin pushing a socialist agenda. Why should we trust these folks?

Frankly, I never trusted the gub'mnt and I worked there. The chief problem is your typical manager is not qualified to manage his way out of a toilet stall without soiling his britches.

The staff folks are remarkably honest and try to do a good job.
