... imagine that! Also, Thom Hartmann had a great interview last night on RT in which Mr Bamford was a panel member. I highly recommend others check that one out too. Thanks, jakeXT!

(36,418 posts)Sen DiFi claimed that the 2009 NYC subway bomb plot was thwarted by PRISM. That mischaracterizes the fact that the bombers were already known and under investigation. http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2013/06/nsa-prism-zazi-subway-feinstein-rogers-phone.html
If the Chair of the Senate Intel Comm can't come up with a single instance where the NSA Program has saved American lives after a decade of operation, something is very definitely wrong.
I wish that people would simply acknowledge the obvious. We're being scammed in the worst possible way by the MIC and intelligence contractors.

(407 posts)I keep seeing, on TV and in news stories online that people who are saying 'Well, if it helps us to be safe from terrorists, I guess it's okay
But speaking just for me, I can say with 100% assurance, that spying on me does NOT help to keep us safe from terrorists. In fact, every penny the government spends on surveilling me is totally wasted.
I totally fail to understand the people who think that tracking their phone calls or reading their e-mail helps to stop terrorists. What do they know that might make this valuable to the NSA?
