Seriously twisted priorities - - -

When someone points out a robber, murderer or Peeping Tom, do you go after the robber, murderer or Peeping Tom -- or do you go after the person who points them out? 

So why is Uncle Sam going after Mr. Snowden instead of going after the FBI, CIA and NSA?

What do you have to hide?

The correct answer when asked "What do you have to hide?" is, "I don't know, but with all the laws on the books, I'm sure there must be quite a few things." --L. Reichard White, June 15, 2013, 08:26:20

Time for Plan B?

The Constitution & Bill of Rights applies only to and limits government, those who are elected and swear an oath to uphold them, and those they hire to help them to do that job.  Unfortunately, we-the-people trusted those documents, the oaths, and the honesty of politicians to abide by those limits.  Clearly, that didn't work. -L.

Responsibility or blame?

We cannot begin to sort ourselves out until we understand that there is such a thing as responsibility, that it has nothing to do with blame, that blame is a fixed, socially-agreed-upon thing, while responsibility is self-defined, something we choose to take upon ourselves independent of social agreements, and is only as great as we are great. -- Victims and Blame by Dean Blehert

Do you support slave owners?

"To presume to have the authority to remove another's inherent right to self-determination is the assumption of the slave owner." --Dr. Amanda Kim Case, June 3, 2013
