If it was all legal, no one would have lied to Congress under oath and denied such spying. AnotherMcIntosh Jun 2013 #60

I don't see Clapper as commiting perjury Life Long Dem Jun 2013 #63

I don't have to collect a guilty verdict on this. AnotherMcIntosh Jun 2013 #83

Lets see: Spying on China is ok, but revealing said spying is treason. redgreenandblue Jun 2013 #89

Yes, spying on other countries is perfectly okay. nt geek tragedy Jun 2013 #90

So then Snowden did nothing wrong if he did indeed spy on the USA for China. redgreenandblue Jun 2013 #93

Spying on behalf of one's own country against a foreign power is okay. geek tragedy Jun 2013 #94
