Defending the nation's mass surveillance programs because "people were desperate to avoid another [9/11] attack," Hillary Clinton, speaking at University of Connecticut on Wednesday night, noted that a balance must be found to "make sure that we're not infringing on Americans' privacy, which is a valued, cherished personal belief that we have." But her most controversial comments were saved for Edward Snowden, as she though it "odd that he would flee," since, she noted, "we have all these protections for whistle-blowers, " and concluded rather cryptically that, "turning over a lot of that material... gave all kinds of information, not only to big countries, but to networks and terrorist groups and the like."

It will be interesting to contrast Clinton's remarks with Sen. Rand Paul's when he speaks at Harvard University on Friday afternoon. In all likelihood, he'll rehash the same jokes he made when he spoke at Berkeley in March about the NSA listening in on his cell-phone conversations. Meanwhile, Bill Clinton has called Snowden an "imperfect messenger" for bringing the debate about privacy versus national security to the fore.

Both Hillary Clinton and Paul are trying to win over college students to their philosophy. If applause decibels are any indication, though, students favor lionizing the whistle-blower over shaming him.

Guess it's not surprising that Fox has been promoting Hillary for the presidency. Well, at least that will be their pick if Jeb Bush can't win.

Nice of her to concede after 12+ years of supporting the Patriot Act that "a balance must be found". Should we find that balance right now, or maybe get around to it sometime in the next 12 years?

Maybe not Communists. Socialists, yes, but not Communists. Not that it matters in the long one.

As for not knowing why he ran... She is either stupid or lying. I think he was afraid of a slow death.

Funny thing about pathological liars and sociopaths.

They eventually start believing their own bullshit.

She, of course, is referring to domestic groups emboldened by Snowden's actions.
Terrorists are any parties who are against not America, but against the Federal Government.

Snowden was not protected by the whistleblower laws because he was a contractor, not part of the government.

Much to be said on why they use contractors.

Terrorists hate us because of our freedoms.

Snowden released info on Americans being spied on, which if addressed, would result in us keeping our freedoms. So terrorists will attack us because we are free, thanks to Snowden.

Amazing how our tax dollars are used against "We The People".

In all likelihood Snowden probably did help numerous terrorists.

After all, he subcontracted for the NSA and worked for the CIA.

In the ever epic and unwise words of Hillary Clinton herself: “What difference does it make?”

Is turning over “the secret documents” to terrorist groups really any different than say secretly arming (and bank-rolling) Al Qaeda or trafficking firearms to narco-terrorists and having that blow-up in your face, such as the case with both Benghazi and Fast and Furious? Get the hell out of politics you ever-idiotic Clintons!
