David Cameron, Enemy of the Truth and America's Favorite Tool

David Cameron announced on Tuesday that any newspaper that publishes any leaks about the NSA may face prosecution.  The way Cameron disgraces the truth makes it all the more important that such leaks do get published as there's no other way we will hear what's real.

Meanwhile, a young girl and her family testified before Congress about a drone strike that killed her grandmother and barely missed her and also her sister.  CNN will probably make a big deal about this happening but what they likely will leave out of the report is that less than half of a dozen Congressional representatives were in the briefing room to hear what the family had to say.  Yet another disgrace.

At the bottom of all of this is that the NSA and the GCHQ are performing exactly the same crimes for which journalists at the News of the World were jailed and continue to be prosecuted.

Unsubstantiated propaganda is flying freely and Congressman Perry King said the NSA has saved thousands of lives.  Really.  Where are they.  Who are they.  What specific risk did they face and what did the NSA do to thwart it.  Classified.
