"This blunt approach is not the product of an informed, open, or deliberative process"
Well, of course it isn't informed: we don't know EVERYTHING about how they're spying on us yet, so until we know everything about it, we can't make an informed decision. Of course, all of those methods are classified, so we can't tell you about them, but just as soon as you know all about those methods, we can talk about them. It all makes PERFECT sense.
Snowden is clearly so much worse than all of them because he did his crimes… ON THE INTERNET. Thus making it a totally original and innovative crime that had never been done before. It's obvious.
Of course he was aiding the enemy. As if there could be any doubt. Any information that informs the American public of the secret crimes committed in their names is aiding the true enemy of the American government: the people it rules over.
"Tell me, how do you know this is the best law firm in the city?"
"Well, it's so clean."
"Yes, it's certainly uncontaminated by an understanding of the law."
Well, on the plus side, this "constitution-free zone" certainly explains why DC's gone so crazy in recent years: apparently, the constitution does not exist there.
You know, I honestly thought they'd run out of ways to surprise me, and that they'd just come up with new variations of tricks they'd played before. Oh, how I can be proven wrong. This is AMAZING.
"I can't imagine the blended, cheaper version would have resulted in fewer terrorists thwarted or arrested."
Don't you get it? If they'd COMBINED the two programs like you suggested, Terrorists already in custody would escape, resulting in a new loss of Terrorists arrested! And then the Terrorists would win! It all makes sense!
PS: You see, I capitalize the word "Terrorists" because it gets thrown around so much it might as well be a worshipped entity.
And of course, you can't forget that PokéPETA were basically the bad guys of the last game. It's just so many mis-firings in their brains it goes straight through horrifying and comes out hilarious. As a good friend of mine put it, the irony of this is so delicious she wants to dip it in chocolate and slowly eat it while lying on silk sheets.
