Lol @ the "objective" media coverage this story is getting; each news organization is clearly taking a stance and either condoning or condemning his actions.
Snowden stated he's most afraid this information will simply pass by and no change will come as a result of it.
He's right.
This is a dialogue that needs to continue until change occurs.
For as big of a story and leak that this is, it doesn't seem that "regular folks" are getting the message. If you want change to occur, that's where it needs to hit and hurt most.

Oh so just because it's legal because the administration says so means that it's right?
Oh ok. Got it.

The administration? Try reading up on FISA before you make completely ignorant comments.

Do you seriously expect that the government be completely transparent with its intelligence gathering methods? You honestly believe that? Like you're not joking?

Arguing about it on here is futile. Especially with you Rusty, because you just go and go and go and go and go and go and go. And it goes no where.
I'm going to reserve my comments for a face-to-face conversation to be had later this evening over a beer.
