  Nowhere did your parent claim Obama created the surveillance state. Only that he loves taking advantage of it, which is true. For the same reasons he has shown no leniency to Manning or Snowden.

  like sooheon correctly pointed out, I never said Obama started the program (and let's be honest, Bush didn't mastermind it either). However, acting like Obama has done anything but completely turn his back on his 2008 campaign "promises" is foolish. He ran against these programs, than immediately gave the middle finger to everyone that believed him. He's expanded and entrenched the surveillance state. Period.
