Re: Big brass ones
said by wifi4milez  :Why, is there some mysterious 3rd party (that nobody knows about yet has hundreds of millions of members) that is throwing their full support behind this guy? Ohhhh, I know. It must be the Free Masons since they have secretly infiltrated our political system. I hate to break it to you, but the Republicans and Democrats ARE the majority politcal parties in the US today. This guy no longer has any support from anyone, and thankfully so. When did he ever had congress' support? |

You are so right.... they are so innocent in what they have done that they need congress to pass a bill to "protect" them from doing nothing wrong.
If they did nothing wrong then they should have no problem allowing their actions to play out in court. They can claim national security, but this certainly wouldnt be the first time and our judicial system has handled several cases that were truly national security (which this isnt) and not a single time has information leaked out that compromised that security.
Bottom line is, they want immunity because they know they are guilty and it will cost them. It was cheaper to pay off the corrupt congress then it was to pay off the lawsuits and lawyers. |

If they did nothing wrong then they should have no problem allowing their actions to play out in court. Please return to reality. Once the trial lawyers get their teeth into an industry, they can literally kill companies with class action lawsuits, even if they don't win them. They can file essentially the same lawsuit over and over and over again in different venues, and force a company to settle rather than eat the cost and the PR nightmare from the trials, and become multimillionares in the process.
It's not about right and wrong. It's about not swimming when there are sharks in the water.
Why do you think the coffee you buy has big signs and labels saying "Warning! Coffee is hot!" and in fact it's served tepid? Because someone decided to file a lawsuit, and it actually makes business sense to punish everyone rather than stand up to one moron.
This is the country we live in, because of the justice system we tolerate. |

All that has been established is he is a whistle genital blower on a significant issue and a congress after the democrats were pleasured by him that they just rolled over and went back to sleeping at the wheel. *Shock*! Your assumption has little basis in reality. Made some corrections for you. |

Give it up man. You are fighting with left-wing conspiracy theory morons. If you are searching for the end of the voluntary ignorance in that group, you will never find it. |
