Clapper, who works for Obama by the way, explicitly denied that Metadata was collected.

No, he didn’t. He gave a weasel answer to a trap-question and got burned for it. Great. It was not an explicit denial that metadata was being collected, and representing it as such undercuts your argument.

Before the leaks, Obama seemed to imply that the US Govt didn’t collect Metadata then after the leaks had to back off and admit that they did.

Ah, ‘seemed to imply’. Well thank god we stopped that.

Ok so show me how well you can comunicate by documenting something SIGNIFICANT that Snowden lied about.

Snowden claimed that it was trivial for him, as an analyst, to get a wiretap on president Obama or any other American citizen. The disproof of this, oddly enough, lies in the slides he released, which show this isn’t true.

He also lied about people being able to watch you as your ideas form on the screen, or rather, he made it sound like that could happen at-will, and not after a warrant, and not if you were a US citizen.

Instead of making shitloads of badly-spelled, terribly argued posts, why not concentrate on writing up an actually convincing narrative, explaining why you’re upset and why others should be without calling people bootlicks, assholes, maniac farters, and the rest? I don’t think anyone has any chance of being convinced by your current incredibly sloppy approach.
