This appeared mere days after Yahoo's security chief told NSA's new boss, Mike Rogers, that this is exactly what would happen if US, the "freedom loving country", would push for backdoors.

NSA's chief brushed it aside as a non-issue, saying "I'm sure we can find a legal framework" for backdoors to work.

Well, here's your "legal framework", America - from China. How do you like it now? Does taking your own medicine taste good?

It only took two people (Manning and Snowden) to remove any remaining credibility left in US foreign policy. You almost have to feel embarrassed for Obama and co.

Well, in reality, the two people that removed any remaining credibility left in the US foreign policy are George W Bush and Obama. Dick Cheney and Condoleezza Rice helped, though.

Come on, are Obama and W much worse than Reagan, Nixon, Johnson, Kennedy, Rossevelt? The US will keep using up the last of its credibility year after year, and of course that just means it isn't.

Carter replenished the national credibility account?

Nah, I just picked the most egregious ones as examples, skipping the ones that were lower profile. As I get older, I just see things repeating over and over; the young kids think we are reaching into new bads just because they are seeing it for the first time.

Now get off my lawn.
