I think Putin does what is good for Russian, and obama does what is good for him and his lefty pals who keep calling Snowden a traitor , oh yea like spying on us all which you seem not to upset with
I think differently.
and obama does what is good for him and his lefty pals who keep calling Snowden a traitor
Snowden is, objectively, a traitor.
President Obama and his associates may have their own subjective reasons for thinking of him that way.
That doesn't make a person who rationally examines Snowden's actions a "lefty pal" of Barack Obama.
yea like spying on us all which you seem not to upset with
I'm not happy about it, nor have I been happy about it. But Snowden's information here is not particularly new or surprising - we are well acquainted with the practice of warrantless wiretaps, the TSA etc.
Everyone seems to overlook the fact that Snowden provided the government of China with independent verification that we have been spying on the government of China.
That is information that has nothing to do with US civil rights or the civil rights of anyone in the world.
It was a gift from Snowden to a dictatorship.
