(128,516 posts)What is it that all of sudden keeps people from demanding such from their own representatives and they are directed to bullseye the President out of ignorance of how the tricameral government works? Doing that focuses useless attention to the Executive, which is NOT where laws are changed.
Meanwhile, DU reinforces this stupidity by declaring that Congress doesn't exist and the Executive Branch can unilaterally fly faster than a speeding bullet and leap tall buildings in a single bound.
This has nothing to do with "Snowden". You give him too much credit. For decades BEFORE he was born, people had to deal with the J. Edgar Hoovers of the U.S... And no it doesn't "make more sense" to criticize those branches "we do control", because when you do that, you are wasting energy that is better spent organizing voters to take back their states and remove the ilk from office at ALL levels of government.
