because of releasing the information about the surveillance program, or because he ran out on his GF?

Speaking for myself (and maybe my wife to some extent) from reading the long personal bio in the Post, he seems like a bit of a narcissistic, attention seeking dick more than someone out to do any great deeds for humanity (ok, go ahead and cue the comments about that sounding like a James Ford description, I can probably name the people who are racing to type that). But who knows…

yeah yeah… rule number one: discredit the messenger ..focus on that..forget about the message…forget about what he is saying…. THAT is not important…… I guess it works for the Kardashian world the sheeple live in… after all its what is interesting to you about the whole thing? the fact that the guy is an asshole..THAT is what interests you… what he is saying? who cares man.

the NSA has had to admit, after lying, that what this guy- whether he is unsavory or not I haven't a clue or much interest- says happens to be correct.. if people don't find it troubling that their phone calls are being listened to without so much as a warrant or that their internet activity, etc. is being kept track of…. well, then what the fuck can one say? its like Iraq all over again…people being lied to, made afraid (if we don't spy on you- legally of course (ha ha)) in order for the government to do what it wants and the law and constitution be damned…

China is having a good laugh as is much of the world about America's hypocrisy.. and the US has the nerve to tell China to hand him over…. they're still fucking laughing over there and in Russia….

if someone told us China was secretly recording everything and listening to everyone we'd be like "OH well they don't have freedom there.. what do you fucking expect?" but when it happens over here…

And Hutch, while I am totally with you on this, I did call this the "Snowden Playlist Thread" in Rhett's defense.
But at least he could have put forth the effort to find a song to add.
He could have gone the painfully obvious Leary route as displayed above or he could have used this classic Beck track.
