So your proof is that certified on the record liars have told you this... So it must be true. LOL!

You keep saying something happened...., but then you have no PROOF!??? LOL!

That defense would not hold up well in a court of law. If you are going to start making accusations..... You have to back it up with evidence. If you do not, then you are bearing false witness with nothing to back up your claim.

Yes I believe in the rule of law. I believe The U.S. Constitution IS The Supreme Law of The Land.
NO ONE... is above it.

You said China and Russia know..... Since it's no longer a secret then say what did he did???

“Who stated the U. S. Constitution should be allowed to be usurped”

You did..... You said it was bad the Snowden exposed the NSA usurping the U.S. Constitution. How is that bad???

Now you are acting like the NSA never admired to illegally spying on Americans. This is old news. I guess you missed that part where James Clapper lied, under oath, about the illegal spying on all Americans... including congress and it's oversight committee???

See I provide evidence to back up what I am saying. You have not other than saying you believe the people that admitted they lied.

Yeah that makes A LOT of sense.....(sarcasm off)

So your proof is that certified on the record liars have told you this... So it must be true. LOL!  You keep saying something happened...., but then you have no PROOF!??? LOL!   That defense would not hold up well in a court of law. If you are going to start making accusations..... You have to back it up with evidence. If you do not, then you are bearing false witness with nothing to back up your claim.

All well and good, except there is no way for anyone outside of government to know exactly where agents and operations were compromised.  Is there?  No.  So what you have done is ask a question nobody could provide the information to, and then declare yourself to be the winner because it wasn't provided.  That may work with some folks.  It doesn't with me.

As a general rule, do you think it's a good idea to leak the names, locations, and operations of our clandestine operatives overseas?  Isn't that what we generally consider to the be act of a traitor?  Here you actually defend it.

Why is it okay when Edward Snowden commits acts of treason?

Yes I believe in the rule of law. I believe The U.S. Constitution IS The Supreme Law of The Land.
NO ONE... is above it.

And yet when it is against the law to reveal the names of our clandestine operatvies and operations overseas, you don't mind the law being broken at all do you.

Isn't the military and clandestine operations overseas the perview of the federal government?  Isn't that fully Constitutional?  Yes, it is.  So don't preach to me about your support of the Constitution, when you are clearly only selectively in support of the Constitution.

You said China and Russia know..... Since it's no longer a secret then say what did he did???

I believe you are the one who introduced China and Russia comments.  I never said that Russia and China knew who all our operatives and operations were prior to the Snowden dump.

“Who stated the U. S. Constitution should be allowed to be usurped”

You did..... You said it was bad the Snowden exposed the NSA usurping the U.S. Constitution. How is that bad???

Please link me to a post where I said his releasing information on the NSA collection of data was bad.  I specifically addressed his information dump on other matters.

You see, if Snowden had limited his leaks to the NSA and domestic spying, you and I wouldn't be having this discussion.

If a guy goes out and rescues two people in a fire, does that exhonerate him from starting a fire that burns up two others?

Snowden is a traitor.  There's no other word for what he did.  And you know what, as bad as these government agencies are in some instances, and as much as they do lie, the last I heard treason pretty well tarnishs just about any good deed.

Now you are acting like the NSA never admired to illegally spying on Americans. This is old news. I guess you missed that part where James Clapper lied, under oath, about the illegal spying on all Americans... including congress and it's oversight committee???

No, but then I didn't defend him as you are Snowden.  Even if he did lie, and I believe he did, was it treason?

I don't defend James Clapper's non-treasonous actions, and you do Snowden's clearly treasonous actions.

All related to NSA domestic spying.  This is something I didn't defend.  Good or bad, the dumping of the NSA information does not exhonerate Snowden from the actions that expose him to being charged with treason. Yeah that makes A LOT of sense.....(sarcasm off)

Well, not really, but then you're chasing your tail here.
