What? Treason doesn't pay?
- nobodyshere 13y agoLots of americans wouldn't agree that he committed a treason. And not just americans, btw. Disclosing such acts of violation of your Constitution is a necessity, not a treason. It isn't the case where it would have been better not to know about it.
- spacebe4time 13y ago"The principle is old, but true as fate, kings may love treason, but the traitor hate" Thomas Dekker. Last time I was there 3 years ago, vodka was still pretty cheap. I hope he likes it.
- david927 13y agoIt paid off for our founding fathers. I have too much respect for you, Marc, to think you're doing anything other than joking but it's still disappointing and not really funny. Remember all the people in Germany during WWII (*sorry for the tired analogy) who could have spoken up and didn't. I guess they did the right thing. They certainly wouldn't want to commit treason -- it doesn't pay.
- Ygg2 13y agoSure it does. Just ask NSA/CIA. They betray their country and ideals it was founded on, on a millisecond basis. But you need to be on the right side to get all the fat loot.
