        So how do you propose an ethical person expose corruption to the people of this country when the people in power that he would normally report it to are part of the corruption? The constitutional violations were approved, in secret, all the way up to the President of the United States of America. Or are you of the belief that anything is patriotic & acceptable if you’re in charge and you give it a catchy name like The Patriot Act?

        Penguins do fly faster than eagles. For fear of suppression of American news outlets, it makes sense to leak to everyone.
