New Glenn Greenwald: Expose of Hayden and "journalist" Bob Schieffer

• Daily Paul.com
 The reason that was a scandal was because it was illegal under a 30-year-old law that made it a felony, punishable by up to 5 years in prison for each offense, to eavesdrop on Americans without those warrants. Although both the Bush and Obama DOJs ultimately prevented final adjudication by raising claims of secrecy and standing, and the "Look Forward, Not Backward (for powerful elites)" Obama DOJ refused to prosecute the responsible officials, all three federal judges to rule on the substance found that domestic spying to be unconstitutional and in violation of the statute.

The person who secretly implemented that illegal domestic spying program was retired Gen. Michael Hayden, then Bush's NSA director. That's the very same Michael Hayden who is now frequently presented by US television outlets as the authority and expert on the current NSA controversy - all without ever mentioning the central role he played in overseeing that illegal warrantless eavesdropping program.

What's new? Just like all the rest of these turn coat criminals, they are being logged for when the time comes and it is coming. Now is the time to invest in a rope making company. 

The truth is coming forth like never before and the rats are jumping ship. Let's see what this traitor thug Hayden does in the next few months. They can run, but they won't be able to hide thanks to their fine work. As it has been written, "Live by the sword, die by the sword."
