Sure, we can make assumptions from leaks like those from Edward Snowden, but when you cherry pick certain things you can make anything look bad—and I’m always skeptical of people who only tell me the bad, without telling me any of the good.
Where in his leaks was anything positive? You mean to tell me everything he saw was bad? I highly doubt that.
So what’s the answer? The way I look at it is this…
Terrorist attacks are going to happen with or without the Patriot Act. You’re gullible if you believe it can stop every single one but you’re just as gullible if you believe it hasn’t prevented any.

The world did fall on President Obama's shoulders that night. He has carried it for years now. He never bows under the pressure. He stays the course.
Thank you freshwest, that article was a great find.
PS... that picture you posted was of his returning to the Whitehouse after Sandy Hook.
