Greenwald To Fox’s Bolling: Obama Deliberately, Repeatedly ‘Misled’ Public About NSA Spying

by Matt Wilstein | 6:04 pm, November 2nd, 2013 VIDEO 58

Following revelations that the NSA may have accessed Google and Yahoo data centers to possibly track Americans’ email accounts, Fox’s Eric Bolling welcomed journalist Glenn Greenwald onto his weekend show Cashin’ In to discuss what President Obama may have known about the program and when he knew it. “Do you think President Obama was misinformed or uninformed?” Bolling asked.

“I think neither,” Greenwald answered. “I think he was informed, but chose to tell the public things that he knew to be false.” He claimed Obama has “repeatedly misled the public by claiming that the NSA does not invade the content of our communications,” when “article after article” has proven that they do.

“These are mind-boggling revelations,” Bolling said to Greenwald or the material that continues to be published from Edward Snowden’s NSA leaks. He asked if we can expect more information to emerge from the documents Snowden provided to Greenwald.

Greenwald maintained what he’s been saying for months, that “the majority of very significant and even remarkable stories are yet to be reported.” He added that he’s currently working on reporting some more “shocking” stories as quickly as he can.

Before letting Greenwald go, Bolling suggested that instead of working for an unspecified Russian website, Snowden should return to the U.S. to fix HealthCare.gov. “He’s certainly very competent and well-trained,” Greenwald said. “Certainly more so than the people who seem to be running that website.”

if you are just now figuring out that all the major nations spy on each other and themselves, you fail in life.

U.S. has been spying on itself since end of World War I.

You Fail, by the way.

I think they are generalizing their findings.
There are millions and millions of Americans using the Internet every day. The NSA does not have the time or energy to spy on every American. They are focusing on harvesting data related to possible terrorists and other potential threats to American security. Who are they e-mailling, what websites are they going on, who are they calling? it's the spy business in the 21st century, what do you expect? They aren't Americans, really. They are living in America though.
If you, as Joe Schmoe go on thecoli.com, ebay.com, nba.com and weather.com every day, they do not give a rat's bum about it. Mr. Ackbar al Kazaam who logs onto secret_al_queda_web_site.com every day and sends coded messages on their forum, oh yeah, they are going to track his activity.

What Obama did was a clever political judo move. What we have isnt really a "spy program" its an information data base. The question was phrased specifically to give his "no" answer some wiggle room.:shaq2:

It wasnt a lie... but it was dishonest. :skip: If that makes sense :ld:

I didn't know there were people in America who still trusted what politicians say. Wow.

This article should be filed under the "no shyt" category.
