    I thought the juxtaposition with CIA leaker Agee was interesting. I was under the impression Snowden was going to work in Russia. Good to have the follow up. Do you think he should be given clemency?

  •  
    In this new article CNN covers Obama's apology regarding us citizens losing their healthcare plans regardless of choice, going against what he's said in his campaigns promising us optional better healthcare. This makes me wonder how credible he really is with anything he says.
  •  
    This is a good question and one that gets at the importance of trust. I found the Gallop poll interesting about how people feel if they will be affected by the Affordable Care Act. Do you think these insurance companies have tried to make the roll out of the public plan more challenging?
