Mark Steyn making way too much sense (as usual) about this NSA data mining:

Steyn has a gift of getting right to the heart of it...

One reason for the citizenry not to entrust its personal information to the government is that the big, bloated, blundering government is stupid enough to entrust it to Edward Snowden, as it was previously stupid enough to entrust it to Bradley Manning (the Wikileaks leaker). It’s only a matter of time before the halfwit leviathan entrusts it to a Major Hasan or a Tamerlan Tsarnaev.

Snowden still in Hong Kong and talking to the press... 
Ace thinks Snowden is looking dodgy.  Agreed.  I think he looked dodgy from the start.
