And here I was wondering all day how they were going to try and spin this. I figured they’d either have Snowden’s GF (or her daughter) claim rape by evening news time.
With that said, I wouldn’t believe this propoganda piece if they only polled washington post employees. And since thr fedgov loveds to snoop, I’ll give them something to wet the bed over:
(Ahem - biff biff... is this thing on? Good): attention spooks: you can buy up all the ammo. Go ahead and hunt down Snowden and make an example out of him. You can trash out borders, weaken the currency, even give a good race riot for our summer entertainment...
... and it won’t make a damn bit of difference. You’ve lost the trust of the American people and there’s nothing you can do about it. From the tea party guy, to the occupy wall street gal, and every low information voter in between. They all have smart phones, tables, pc’s etc. Across the political spectrum, no one thinks its you (expletive) business to know everything about the people who pay your salaries.
Think the information highway is your little digital playground? Well monitor this: we’re Americans, dammit! We built this network AND we can tear it down and build another one that’ll leave you spooks playing pacman to avoid dying of bordem! The net only stays up because, well... we’re nice people.
Don’t believe me, just ask a fellow geek.
Go ahead. Throw us in jail. Bankrupt us. Kill us. We don’t care. I for one WILL NOT surrender to evil foreign OR DOSMESTIC!!
Did you get all that over in Fort Meade? Good. Just remember that as of now, we all surf the same web.
