Lawrence O'Donnell Questions NYT Reporter Charlie Savage on His Revelations of NSA Spying on Emails

First of all, man does Mr. Savage look tired. His probable long lesson in patience in school due to his last name, must have served him well yesterday. He probably was on every news show beamed from New York -except FOX which doesn't deal with facts only allegations and innuendos.   I think this discussion explains and demystifies the latest NSA outrage, and explains the latest revelations in a straight forward manner.  It doesn't seem so awful to me.  And I helps me forgive the NYT for Judith Miller's  trolling for the Bush administration (probably inspired by a need to "make a name for herself" rather than GOP dollars or promises, but still).

Chris Christie Vs Rand Paul. National Defense Vs Gimmee Gimmee Gimmee States

Who's the Winner? Rand Paul (if you mean winner as "LOSER").

Guess who comes from the real "Gimmee!" State. Lawrence O'Donnell spells it out for us in the video above. Will the timid DC press dare squeak out a question for Rand Paul about this? Or will it be business as usual?

Try "Hey, Senator, if you are so hot on national defense then why do you call for the end of NSA surveillance?  The Bush 43 administration tried that for 7-8 months in 2001 and then BOOM!  There went the World Trade Center.  Get it?"  Or maybe try "Why do you say that New Jersey is a gimmee state, when it's a net donor to the nation and your state is a net taker?"  You can always ask the other question second.
