Obama’s Top Advisor – No Amnesty For Snowden

Former NSA contractor and leaker Edward Snowden shouldn’t get amnesty, President Barack Obama’s top national security official said.

“We don’t think that Snowden deserves amnesty,” National Security Adviser Susan Rice said of Snowden, during an interview on CBS’ 60 Minutes that aired Sunday night. “We believe he should come back, he should be sent back, and he should have his day in court.”

Still, administration officials have kept open the possibility of some amnesty, and Rice didn’t engage when Stahl asked whether refusing him amnesty was worth the potential threat of more leaks that could further damage the United States’ reputation abroad.

“Lesley, you know I’m not going to get into a negotiation with you on camera about something that sensitive,” she said.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
