Congresswoman Pelosi Gets Booed Calling Snowden Criminal

At first, he was labelled a criminal. But then...

In a recent turn of events, Rep. Pelosi called the new NSA privacy revelations "disturbing." Read about that here: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/aug/16/nancy-pelosi-calls-nsa-privacy-revelations-disturb/

You are called a criminal if you tell the American public what it's leaders are up to. Take back our Democracy should be the new rallying cry across the country.

Well, he did break the law...the law written by congress to hide what congress is doing. The same law that makes it illegal to tell the public what public officials are doing to them in their name. The law that allows one with an issue to only bring it up with the perpetrators in private. Sounds like good law to break to me.
"Don't vote incumbent" is my rallying cry until they're all replaced.

yeah, regardless of the end result, he still broke the law..and thus is a criminal. As usual, we have another video that tries to turn everything into a black or white issue, I'm no fan of Pelosi either, but she's not wrong.

The law doesn't care if you agree with what he did or not. He knew it was illegal to do what he did, that's why he fled. He's already made this issue public, so if enough people vote on this sort of issue, change WILL happen. but it doesn't excuse what he did.

He needs his day in court. IMO it was stupid of him to flee or at the very least, to continue fleeing. Everyone knows his name now. If ANYTHING happens to him, the USA will be blamed. He needs to turn himself in.

That is assuming diebold arnt running the elections....and re-districting doesnt occur....and they dont pass new laws that stop hundreds of thousands of people from voting.....etc....etc...

I disagree completely. Labling him a criminal before a trial is perhaps a little premature - whether or not he broke the law is the question that should be asked at the trial...only it seems that the answer would likely be yes because his whistle blower status, or lack thereof, sure as hell isnt going to protect him.

I'm not sure why supporters of what he did would demand he martyr himself further. Do you really put so much trust in the justice system? You saw what they did to Manning. You think that is justice? How selfish of him to want to avoid that same fate rite? If it was me I would sacrifice myself to their little ritual in a flash and then sit in a cell for god knows how long hoping that the American people can pull themselves away from MTV and fastfood long enough to give a fuck about me. Lol nop. US citizens don't seem to need a trial to decide his guilt or not. Is anybody actually thinking to themselves "gee, I wonder if that snowdon guy had a point. Too bad I won't know until he hands himself in!". No, everybody made up their minds long ago and I don't think I need him to publically crucified to get mad as hell.

@VoodooV, the guy broke old-news and took a rest-of-life hit for it, now for what it's worth, YOU are in-the-know whether you need to be or not-That says quite a bit more than he's guilty or not guilty, if anything, he's brazen or foolhardy, or, he could be the smartest man in the room. Lifes' fulla changes.
