In reply to the discussion: UK poll: Conservatives significantly more likely than liberals to hate Snowden's leaks [View all]sabrina 1
(62,325 posts)country over the past couple of years, and EVERYONE, regardless of party affiliation, is OUTRAGED over what has been going on.
It's been kind of nice being able to agree with people I normally avoid even talking to on at least the issue of our Civil Rights. It gives ME hope that when it comes to this country people actually CAN put their personal politics aside and unite to try to preserve this democracy.
Polls confirm this. Not only does an overwhelming MAJORITY of the country support Snowden as a Whistle Blower, but the numbers have INCREASED since last summer DESPITE the propaganda intended to smear him.
People just aren't buying all the talking points and propaganda and smear campaighns anymore.
Not surprising to most of us Dems, the American people when it comes down to it, are very fond of their Constitutional Rights. That is what they are told they are 'fighting for' in all of our wars, and they BELIEVE it.
Ironically the very propaganda used as PR for all of our 'wars', is now working AGAINST them as people actually truly support the US Constitution.
That has been truly encouraging to see for Dems.
