âDo you love me?â
"Yes."
âDo you tell all your friends that you love me?â
"Sure, I tell them all the time."
âSometimes I think your friends donât approve of me.â
"Sure they like you, they just donât know you like I do."
âWhatâs that supposed to mean?â
"Umâ"
âYourâre ashamed to be seen with me, arenât you? YOU ASSHOLE.â
Let me get out my tiny violin.
Well, If theyâre feeling unappreciated, theyâre certainly all welcome to quit.
Iâd send every Waaambulance in town; but Iâm pretty sure that most of the EmoMTs arenât cleared to Secret or above. Sorry about that.
Seriously, what is it with total scumweasels and their raging entitlement issues. The guy is 100% untouchable, legally (if his torture-dungeon buddies in the CIA are free and clear because Mr. Prez prefers to âlook forward, not backwardâ a mere peeping tom is surely safe) and heâs whining in public because he doesnât have impunity and hagiography? W.T.F.
Not sure which fills me with greater fear for the incompetence of those in charge (and those reporting on those in charge):
angry and dispirited by what they see as the White Houseâs failure to defend the spy agency against criticism of its surveillance programs, according to four people familiar with the NSA chiefsâ thinking.
âorâ
Stewart Baker, the NSAâs former general counsel, said he had not discussed the administrationâs response to the NSA scandal with officials in government, but that it was the âgeneral perceptionâ that it had been weak. âThe President is uncomfortable defending this. Maybe he spends too much time reading blogs on the left," Baker said. "Thatâs fatal in cases like this. You have to make the case because nobody else will.â
Grow up, you pathetic losers.
Looks like a picture of sanity. The Clozapine gleam in the eye says it all. We are safe. Safe as houses.
No sympathy here. Those chiefs chose to hang themselves and their agencies with the rope they were given.
Maybe they will learn something about wielding power graciously, but I doubt it. Given the chance, those ambitious twits will keep doing as they have been, but with more aggressive plumbing to control the leaks.
So. . . itâs not about whether what they are doing is right or wrong, itâs about whether a President elected to serve the people âhas their backâ?
Now, whether he does or not is another question, but the President is supposed to have ALL our backsâ is the NSA more important than the entire population of the USA?
âHe grows on youâ is code for âHeâs an asshole, all the time, but you eventually get used to it.â
Oh, boo fucking hoo. If youâre seriously claiming that you canât do your job at all without engaging in regular, systematic, routine violations of the Constitution, then there are only two possibilities:
- Your job is inherently damaging to a free society, and should be summarily eliminated, or
- You completely suck at doing your job, and want to be allowed to violate basic human rights in order to make your own life easier.
In either case, you can eat a bag of steaming hot dicks.
This is a baffling perspective to me. Domestic spying, especially without proper judicial oversight, goes against the founding principles of a democratic society. âHey, tell these people how to feel about thisâ? Do you HEAR yourselves? The government does not tell the people what to think, the people tell the government how to act.
In the same vein, there have been a number of articles, unbelievable in their self-pitying tone, from assorted CIA types who ended up being charged over the as-sloppy-as-it-was-illegal-and-likely-to-piss-off-an-American-ally Italian abduction/rendition/torture case. Oh, cry me a fucking river. You were part of an operation to have a guy bagged and dragged and sent off for torture, and now youâre the victim because Langley isnât providing you with a medal, a cookie, and a warm comforting sense of impunity (and these were all written by people who had never spent a day in jail; but who were butthurt because travel to certain non-US jurisdictions might now be unsafe for themâŚ)
Theyâre not in jail for acting illegally and lying to everyone including Congress. What more do they want?
Maybe he spends too much time reading blogs on the left," Baker said. "That's fatal in cases like this.
Itâs true, you know, if you read the HuffPo youâll just drop dead right on the desktop. Even semi-lefty blogs like bOINGbOING are driving up the cost of health care, because reading posts like this can make you sick to your stomach.
âspends too much time reading blogs on the left,â so⌠right leaning people want to be monitored 24/7? Or is it just a view that right wing people feel the military can do no wrong so, it must be 100% pressure from the left?
