Price put on Snowdens Head

[warrprayer]

It goes to the one that spots the great white wha... , er, Snowden first! Arrrrr!!!!



BTW, I think I have an idea for the Gummint that might slow down some leaks. Before someone is given a top secret clearance, they should be introduced to and get to know some retired people who have served in the field. It might make them think about who might get hurt by releasing the wrong kind of intel to the wrong people. Just sayin'.

1. We should get Dog and Beth right on it...

[warrprayer]

2. as Moby Dick taught me...

... sometimes it is best to let something go

[Marie Marie]

3. Good one!

BTW, did you ever notice the big smilin' George W Bush picture he has hanging on his wall?

[warrprayer]

4. Snowden will probably wish

he had someone like Dog on his trail compared to the friendly folk who will be looking for him.

5. sincere apologies

to anyone who clicked on this thinking I was being literal.

6. Or maybe get rid of fraudulent contractors who do their background invs

Lets vet people before giving insane access.

7. you can bet they are going to

tighen up security like crazy. And even then, there will be leaks. It makes a difference if the people who depend on your confidence have real faces. Trust me on this. Not quite sure if I'm making sense or not.

8. Maybe we should get some gov'ment reps who uphold the Constitution.

And fire these third-party contractors who have no allegiance to anyone but the almighty dollar.
Imagine those third-party contractors charging us twice what the gov'ment pays. RIP-OFF!
Why are we paying close to one million of them contractors to spy on the American people anyways? Ain't right.

9. The assumptions on DU never fail me..

All those contractors with clearance are not working for the NSA...BAH is about 10th of the top players with federal contracts..in fact, they are small cheese...

11. you are correct

and what I saw was so compartmentalized I really had no clear idea of what I was doing. I concentrated on the precision of my work, and preferred not to know the applications.

10. I worked as very low level contractor

at one time. They are not "evil" by nature and were better people to work for than most all of the civilian factories etc.. And there was some inherent dignity knowing what you did was important, as opposed to making the washers for the wheels of little tykes cars. And even at my humble position, security was enforced. There was an 800 number hotline for turning in security violations. We took it seriously. Sometimes shit happens. The political side is controlled by your elected politicians.

12. I believe that you approached your work as you stated.

However, a private corporation is ultimately only accountable to its shareholders.

We have better protections and accountability when we have government employees do the work.
And why should the government pay twice the price to an outside contractors? Ridiculous.

[warrprayer]

13. I may be mistaken

but I kind of thought private contractors bid on the contracts. I know though that in the real world kissing congresspeoples asses the right way probably has undue influence. The solution is obvious and cannot be repeated too often - get money out of politics.

14. I think he'll be irrelevant soon enough

He's already given up booty to the Chinese and now probably Putin.

What's left that matters, not much.

If they need someone to off him plenty in Latin America can do the job.

Google Anastasio Somoza bazooka paraguay for example

He's better off in Iceland, but brrr

15. not to worry

new security protocol is IN EFFECT!!!
