Has Cruz issued an opinion on Snowden and I missed it?

[Donnafrflorida]

and i thought for once i agreed with my senator

We should be asking what the motivation was of the Administration and the Congress in undertaking this program as extensive as it is, and their motivation for keeping it secret. Inquiring minds want to know.

[JimSEA]

Keeping up with China, perhaps. Not a good idea, anyhow.

[laplata]

If so, I missed it, too.

A Cruz statement from The Blaze last week:

“If it is the case that the federal government is seizing millions of personal records about law-abiding citizens, and if it is the case that there are minimal restrictions on accessing or reviewing those records, then I think Mr. Snowden has done a considerable public service by bringing it to light.”

Thank you.. that’s what I expected Cruz to say.

[dsutah]

Yeah but old Momma Jarret and her nasty crew would never allow them to do that! After all, she couldn’t get in to do her dirty work making mischief for the American people! They’d have to impeach her and the rest of his shadow government before they could do that!

In all seriousoness, the only way we could/should get rid of Obama is to get rid of Biden first and then to manipulate the appointment process so that there is a decent VP to take over. It does no good to get rid of Obama when the replacement would be just as bad.

[laplata]

But now he seems to be backing off.

[holden]

Of course you mean those senators won’t remove him, since it would be House members that would (in a dream, ha!) impeach.

The important thing about the 2014 elections will be whether we get non-fraudulent outcomes. There seems almost no hope of that.

The House might not soon consider Obama's impeachment because it take's two thirds of the Senate to impeach.

Given that, the 2014 election will be crucial; and I'd suggest sending contributions to SarahPac..

Thanks kathsua.

If Snowden should be "extradited and prosecuted" as Nelson suggests, then Obama should be impeached and removed from office. Obama's offense was far more serious than Snowden's. Snowden only revealed NSA is using computers to monitor phone calls. Obama told al Qaeda the United States was able to identify and monitor its calls. Obama went further and told al Qaeda that the United States knew which phone numbers they were using.
