What was it that Jonathan Swift said? When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

And in the case of Snowden we have quite a confederacy indeed. They range from Dianne Feinstein to Dick Chaney.

In the mean time, watch what you say on the phone. Somebody is listening!

Quote:"Being called a traitor by Dick Cheney is the highest honor you can give an American, and the more panicked talk we hear from people like him ... the better off we all are," Snowden said. Cheney was instrumental in the expansion of surveillance programs after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
"None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free."

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
