On NSA spying and who we are going to convict.

Congressman Peter King wants to prosecute the whistle blower.  That's a way to handle it.  Arrest and prosecute the messenger. 

Isn't it time to stop pointing fingers and start looking at ourselves and how much we are part or maybe the whole of the problem? I look at my Verizon bill and I can see all the phone calls made and to what number and length of time. The same thing with my internet house phone. My cable company knows what I watch and has access to what I DVR. Netflix tells me what I recently watched and makes fairly accurate predictions of what I might like to watch.. Amazon has my wish list and does the same as Netflix. I'm bombarded by spam. How did they get my email address? My internet provider knows what websites I go to even if I have a privacy setting. They know my banks. How far away is it that someone can crack my passwords? (It's easily done by those in the know BTW). I guess the difference is that the government who can easily access anything these days as major corporations do have a different POV for all this. They are looking for suspicious things and anyone associated with someone under suspicion becomes suspicious whether they do something wrong or not. Re: "National Security letters" for example. So we do have something to worry about, but pointing fingers at whistle blowers only makes it worse.
