The Intel Agencies did not fail us on 9-11. We were warned by Russia, Israel, France and Germany. The CIA delivered the August PDB, Ashcroft would not fly civilian airways, and what more could have been required of intel? An absolute failure of executive management.

Ok...let's pretend for a moment that Snowden IS a traitor. Now the Bill of Rights are basically laws for our government, correct? So, by spying on citizens without warrants...our government officials are breaking the law and are thus traitors.
