... He also didnt mince words when it came to Snowden, who he referred to as practically a war criminal for taking secrets out of the country. He sought asylum first in China and then in Russia. Was Mordor not accepting asylum requests?
When it comes to the NSA, Colbert noted that the agency got totally pwned by a 29-year-old. We have solid proof that this program saved zero lives. It was designed to root out terrorists, Colbert said. It shouldn't bother you if you're not hiding anything, and since you can't hide anything from the NSA, nothing is bothering you.
In the end, Colbert suggested that the NSA was everyones fault, since both Republicans and Democrats voted for it. We voted for the people who voted for it, and then voted for the people who reauthorized it, then voted for the people who re-re-authorized it. he said.
