| [America with Jorge Ramos] John Brennan's had a busy year. He became CIA director in March of 2013, and a few months later Edward Snowden became the face of public outrage over government surveillance. The anger flows both ways. Outrage - Snowden - Outrage - Snowden... why don't they get it ? "I think I am, first of all, outraged that there are individuals who decided to take upon themselves to reveal some of the very, very important capabilities that this country has in place to keep American Welcome to my conference room Jorge. Yes, that's right, Brazilian walnut Jorge. It was a gift. Do you like it? Can we talk about Snowden now Jorge ? Responding to polls showing younger demographics' support of Snowden's revelations, Brennan said, "I think most of the young people don't even understand what in fact he has done and the implications of it." No mention of the fact the NSA had no 'understanding' or clue of what Snowden was doing at the time. |

| #4 Here's Daniel Pipes' take on Brennan from 2009. People with Brennan's views are much more likely to turn the West's security apparatus against (non-Muslim!) Westerners than to go as far as to hurt the islamofascistc enemy's (i.e. the fanatics', nutjobs' and psychopaths') precious feelings. The Obama administration has made clear to whom the future must not belong. That does not inspire trust. |

| #2 The Grand Klingon is right, The millennialists, who by and large drank the Obama Kool-Aid really do NOT understand how freaking dangerous it is "out there" in the hinterlands of the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Africa. They don't have a clue that literally millions of fanatics and nutjobs and complete psychopaths (re: Boko Haram) are champing at the bit to do grievous harm to any and all things American, including them and their IPhone and their Ipad and their Twitter account. |
