I'm not mounting a defense of NSA (not here, at least). I'm saying Snowden has lied. Often. He should answer for it.

Or rather if he wants to be taken seriously in an ongoing conversation then he should answer for it.

Fair enough. Doesn't that go both ways? Heck, I still need to show how your oversight post was a bunch of baloney

And I see no lack of demanding answers on part of Snowden critics. Case in point.

What you want is for people only to question Snowden, but not NSA. Both are fair game.

Not true. I want people to recognize some nucleus of necessary secrecy as legitimate, but welcome IC questioning.

When govt invokes "necessary secrecy" that subsequently gets exposed as "sloppy propaganda" credibility problem.
