House Speaker John Boehner today called NSA leaker Edward Snowden a “traitor” who put Americans at risk by releasing classified information to the media. “He’s a traitor,” the highest ranking Republican in the House of Representatives said in an extensive interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos. “The disclosure of this information puts Americans ... continued here

He sure knew better than to go to Congress. And he got far away from the TSA molesters to boot.
Weeper needs to take a smoke break with his new son-in-law.
Clueless in New Jersey.
And since BONER and his collegues APPROVED this and were AWARE of it - its no surprise.
Each and every one of those bone heads who supported a blanket monitoring of American citizens needs to be fired.
“Fired” or fired upon?
Agree with you that too many republicans have only recently discovered the bill of rights. But data mining up to as many as 3 billion calls daily in the guise of fighting terrorists seems is not what I want my government to do. You seem far too trusting of authority, IMHO.
Hey i think you’re posting on the wrong site. What enemies are they protecting us from? They blow chance after chance. If your head was any further in the sand it would be sticking out of the sidewalk in Bejing.
Trying to figure that one out too. Further I'm still trying to determine how the government's spying on me makes me safer.
As in John Effin Kerry.
The Manning kid didn't get anyone killed. But he did embarrass the hell out of a lot of bureaucrats and political whores like hillary so I'm not going to join in the stoning. As for Snowden, he's a brave guy but he's also about to learn that most americans are just sheep that are okay with fedgov listening into and recording all of their conversations and reading all of their emails. Personally I wouldn't have done it because the people in the US mostly aren't worth having a ruined life. But I still have a lot respect for him.
Good luck finding out anything. It’s all SECRET. And for anyone to reveal any wrongdoing is treason. Because the government secretly decided that. It’s so secret that the ones who voted on it don’t even know what they voted on. There are no safeguards.
Oh, geez, can I take that back? That’s going to go directly into my file...
Dear FR,
If I should happen to disappear some time in the near future, please tell my wife and kids that I love(d) them....
Sincerely,

Cry-baby Bohner needs to look in the mirror. Talking about the pot calling the kettle black.
I seem to remember him getting our foreign assets waxed in a couple places.
I’m confidant that Elitist Boner would love to hear comments at 202-224-3121. Time to speak up. Ask for the Elitist of your choice at this telephone number.
Time is better used watching grass grow.
The government apparently can miss illegal aliens residing in this country. I can name 10 off the top of my head. They’ve been here for years. But they’re here.
He is certainly not a traitor. A traitor betrays his country to an enemy. This man betrayed this countries enemies to it’s citizenry. There is a difference.
There is a very clear definition of treason in article three of the constitution. This mans actions do not, in any way, meet that definition.
Our government has assumed powers and priveleges that are not among its enumerated powers under the constitution. The prevailing popular opinion, or the fear of the masses; does not justify all of these politicians disregarding their sacred oaths and it doesn’t condemn this mans patriotism.
John Boehner is likely a traitor. The entire damned organization of our federal government is very likely staffed with traitors of one stripe or another, but exposing the unconstitutional activities they have undertaken is not traitorous.
Actually, Manning revealed detail - in his document dump - about actual arab collaborators in Afghanistan and Iraq, including what they were paid and what for. I have the docs.
He got people killed. Not a shred of a question.
