Default Putin and Snowden: July 4 thoughts

You're one for pat answers aren't you? Let somebody else do the
thinking, then spit out their thoughts as if you've been gifted
with profound insight.

Look into how T. Jefferson of the flowing words was drafted into
writing the Declaration and you'll realize there were dozens, even
hundreds, of founding fathers, each with his own ideas as to the
basis of our revolution. Jefferson could just say it more
elegantly. The same applies to the phrasing of the Preamble of
the Constitution.

These are rallying cries, not reality.

As to whether Snowden needs to be prosecuted, there's little doubt
about it. He did us all a service, and the legislation that was the
basis for all this is and was an atrocity. But there were thousands
of ways for this information to leak out, especially by ordinary
citizens working for Google and Verizon and anywhere else a
Patriot Act or FISA order was directed, without a trusted employee
of our espionage agencies becoming a turncoat and delivering
documents he was entrusted with into foreign hands, and doing so
in ways designed to cause as much damage to American foreign policy
as possible.

Let him become a citizen of a tinpot dictatorship. That's where
he should be. And he should shiver in his boots at the thought
of coming anywhere near anyone with the wherewithal to whisk him
away and deliver him to Washington for prosecution.

Why should we be loyal to those who rule us through atrocities? We
should not.

One day the Snowdens of this world will have the power to arrest and
punish the monsters who illegally rule us from Washington. And I
hope it will be exemplary punishment indeed.

With all good wishes,


Kevin Alfred Strom.

Not likely. The Snowdens of the world do not wish power. They don't
know how to manage power. They wish to undermine power. If they should
topple Washington, there will be politically adept individuals with a
hunger for power, who will take the place of those deposed. But it will
not be the Snowdens of the world. Regardless of ideology, power is first
about power. All other priorities are the means to that end.

Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.

The latest:

"Microsoft has collaborated closely with US intelligence services to
allow users' communications to be intercepted, including helping the
National Security Agency to circumvent the company's own encryption,
according to top-secret documents obtained by the Guardian."

You can't tell me you're surprised.

Power absolutely corrupts. Power is bad.
