If it weren't for Snowden this pony and dog show wouldn't be going on.
Too many spent the last year lying to Congress when asked about spying on Americans.
There is no "moderate infringement" of my rights.
You either respect them and uphold them or you don't.

If it weren't for Snowden this "pony and dog show" wouldn't be necessary to dispel the nonsensical chest-beating that some people are engaging in. It isn't like FISC wasn't sufficient - it was. Thanks to this self-centered bozo, we incur the cost of yet another layer of bureaucracy that serves no other purpose other than to calm the vacuous savage beast.

Government oversight- fox watches hen house.

We dont have three branches that even check each other, a plan for oversight is just to fool the faithful.

Lot words, must wait FOX tell me what means! You guys are so funny. Don't seem to know what your supposed to get mad about. The Right Pols are already blasting the openness as being dangerous to our safety.... come on, turn on your AM radio so you can get a "clue" what to be irate about.

Yes, an officer to oversee personal liberties at the NSA is what Mr. Obama said at the presser.

Jeez, Americans will believe anything as long as they feel placated.
