Who is the enemy: Edward Snowden or Lindsey Graham?

Downsize DC
by James Wilson

08/02/13

Senator Lindsey Graham wants sanctions imposed on any country granting Edward Snowden asylum. The Senate Appropriations Committee agrees. But...I DENY CONSENT! Snowden served the American public by revealing NSA crimes. It must never be a crime to expose crimes. To oppose Snowden s actions is to support criminality. And the proposed sanctions would simply pile new crimes on top of old crimes...
