Soft On Big Brother Tyranny: STRIKE TWO!
One more to go...
Time for the socialist to register as a democrap!
Rube is nothing more than a puppet. If his masters tell him to support amnesty, he will. If his masters tell him to support tyrannical government, he will.
Go pick beans you backstabbing RINO coward. So-dim’s treason does not in the *faintest* excuse the list of anti-American activities you’ve engaged in that is now longer than your nose and heavier than your wife’s bottom.
Anyone who supports the government intrusion exposed by Edward Snowden has no concept of liberty as envisioned by the Founding Fathers.
Keep dancing to the right Marco. We all know now that it is just an act.
Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
He calls Snowden a traitor. What does he call those who are stomping on the constitution by spying on us?
Obviously, the NSA has been in touch with him.
—That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
Look in the mirror to find the traitor, Marco. Ask your fellow elitists to do the same.
Fitting Snowden in with the constitutional definition of treason, he would have to:
Give aid and comfort the the enemies of the United States. He only is guilty of that if the American citizenry can be construed as an enemy of the United States, and he gave aid and comfort to them by telling them that the government is spying on them;
Take up arms against the United States. Knowledge is power, but it is not an arm. He took up information and disseminated it;
Making common cause with the enemies of the United States. Once again, this definition only fits if the American citizenry are construed as the enemies of America.
What he did do was disseminate information in order to torpedo a clandestine program by the United States government, which is not the same as the nation called the United States. The government is appointed through a republican process, and given the task of safeguarding its people’s liberties. Governments come and go, and parties are in and out of power at different times. They are not the nation, but its servants (see Menachem Begin, Revolt!, chapter titled Milchemet Achim Leolam Lo [never a civil war{read it in Hebrew, don’t know how it translated in English text}]).
Thus, Snowden was not a traitor. He was a rogue agent of the government, but sometimes one has no other morally acceptable choice than to go rogue. Whether or not Snowden was faced with such a dilemma is something we can each have an opinion on.
Three strikes:
1. Deaf.
2. Dumb.
3. Blind.
He’s out.
Or, if you want:
1. Consorting with the enemy.
2. Undermining national sovereignty.
3. Undermining Constitutionally-enshrined personal liberties.
The list goes on and on.
More than one thing can be true, but the hard line appears to have been set apurpose by the Establishment. So far, they don't seem to be getting a lot of respect, except from some high-profile radio hosts who insist they are not an e-GOP claque.
