1. He won't. The White House came out in support of him today.

I'm guessing keeping this secret from the public was higher-level policy.

2. Clapper

Never would be my guess.

Jay Carney will defend, or make excuses for Clapper.

Just look at the despicable thieves, liars and cons that President Obama has appointed and surrounded himself with.

GE, Monsanto, and Wall Street are pleased with the representation they are getting from within the White House.

How many Bush holdovers did he keep ?

How many Republicans has he appointed ?

Sad, very sad indeed.

He Lied and people heads need to roll - besides Edward's Snowden he walked away from a 200 K job - so we could know what we all suspected was going on.

I hope NSA doesn't intercept it.

7. Of course it won't happen, but it should. I think even No Drama Obama,

as much as he dislikes firing people, should of course fire someone for lying to Congress Not likely in the world we're in now. The entrenched are more firmly entrenched than at any time in my very long life.

8. Fire James Clapper

If President Obama really does welcome a debate about the scope of the U.S. surveillance program, a good first step would be to fire Director of National Intelligence James Clapper.

Back at an open congressional hearing on March 12, Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) asked Clapper, “Does the NSA collect any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans?” Clapper replied, “No sir … not wittingly.” As we all now know, he was lying.
