In regards to the NSA spying, is the genie out of the bottle ?
Is it just a matter of time until someone, somewhere blows this story sky high ? It seems that it has been very slow in coming, but someone did leak to the NY Times?? "Someone" knows more. The White House cannot put that genie back in the bottle but they are trying to hide the bottle... How long before this shit blows up in their faces? Will it happen before November elections?

1. Yep, it's like a bottle of expanding foam, too--it's gonna get worse!
Their only hope is distraction, like say, a war on a new front. Absent any salacious, headline-grabbing business, they've got trouble.

5. You're right
Deep Spy knows more about the current crooks in the White House. But I'd guess many people here have known about the NSA for decades. The Bush adminstration's portrayal of the NYTimes "leak" as dangerous to national security is more propaganda catapulting by the Department of Distraction.
Yes, it's incredibly slow. Like Watergate, evidence is slooowly leaking. The thugs have become more efficient liars since their younger days with Nixon and the Bush Dynasty learned lessons from #41's errors. (Hang on to power at all costs, shock and awe.)
Whether it breaks before the elections or not people are starting to question what conservatives are doing to them.
