The only true "HERO" is a dead one.


It may be an heroic act, but HE sure as hell is no HERO. The term "HERO" is way to freely used in the media.

I don't know about y'all, but with my Job I know damn well what I can and can't share freely. They have training every 6 months on what can and can't be shared. At the end of the training is a document you sign that basically tells you that you can be tried in the court of law for any leakage of said information.


Granted I don't know how anyone didn't know this was going on.

Are you sure you're allowed to share this information? You may wish to check at your next training. [sarcasm]


Seriously, if a government agency that you worked for was breaking the law, violating the US Constitution, and stomping on the rights of US Citizens, would you speak up, or go about your business? Personally, I would hope that I'd speak up, but no one really knows what they would do in such a situation.

Edward Snowden is "dead man walking". Just like the US Constitution, freedom, and democracy.

I once held a Special Category clearance above top secret while in the Air Force working in the Comm Center 20 yrs ago... I worked with nothing but super secret documents all day long and sometimes I'd go back to my room and turn on the TV and hear a reporter read word for word a document I had just handled. Used to really tick me off. There have always been leaks and there will always be leaks. I would like to think that if I was aware of some government program that was against everything the Constitution stood for I'd say something... if I didn't have a family to worry about. No matter how right this kid might have been exposing this stuff his life is ruined. They will make sure of that. Only if I was sure I'd be protected like the Identity of Deep Throat was would I throw my life onto the craps table and roll the dice.

Patriot.

Look. I feel that this administration is failing America. I have a political bias and part of me is in favor of anything that hurts Obama and his party without hurting our country.

But lets be honest here.
The only reason that this is news is because it's 100% true. You can't "leak" lies and get in trouble. He leaked the truth and it's friggin ugly as hell.

And he did so knowing that he'd be hunted down.

You would think Obama signed this law into place back in 2002 at the rate my party is going.

So when Joe the Neighbor rushes into a burning building to save some kids, he isn't a hero if he makes it out alive?
Or the guy who jumps into traffic to push a child out of danger, and is hit by a truck but survives? He's not a hero?
How about the person who gives up a kidney to a complete stranger?

I don't think you thought that one out before you typed it.

I agree the term is used too loosely, but your prerequisite is off base.

Taps you realize the Kenyan isn't applying this the same way Bush was right? I mean you're not ignorant like "your" party.

However the true meaning of a HERO is one of immortal being.

Hero's are The men and women who have died on the battlefield for the life you and I are so freely able to live.
