Editor:

While Obama, Dianne Feinstein, Nancy Pelosi, Congress and corporate media lead the witch hunt of patriotic whistleblower Edward Snowden, democracy is on hold.

Overlooked is a discussion and debate on whether we even want a U.S. program of massive worldwide surveillance that can potentially take possession of our personal lives in the name of pursuing "terrorism."

Is this what democracy looks like?
