“Bush on Snowden: He damaged the security of the country”
Yeah, well, as far as I know Mr. Bush, Edward Snowden didn’t allow the southern to remain border wide open from 2000 - 2008 and allow 30 million Mexicans to break in to the country. Personally I can’t imagine a greater compromise of national security than that.
The whole premise behind our knowing about PRISM being a threat is the idea that Mohammed and Ahmed are planning their next attack using a couple of Yahoo e-mail accounts and using words like “bomb” and “detonate,” and now that they know about PRISM, the jig is up because they’ve been tipped off! Somehow I doubt that very much.
These people are cunning, I doubt they’re using Yahoo and Youtube to plan their next attack, and I doubt very much the Government started this PRISM program to “protect” us. I believe the whole thing was about datamining and creating political dossiers on Americans right from the start. The fact that they’re so enraged about having been found out, supports my theory. They act like a cockroach who got caught in the cookie jar, HISS HISS HISS. If they sincerely wanted to stop or at least seriously combat terrorist attacks, rather than turning the country into a polite state, they could simply put a moratorium on immigration from certain countries (starting with Saudi Arabia). In a sane country, that probably should have happened on September 12, 2001.
