Whitehouse.gov: 100,000 Signatures Needed by July 09, 2013 (Signature#124,092 on July 01, 2013)

August 02, 2013 brought signature #132,080.

Of course, the Obama Administration responded with crickets. It seems that, this week, they are occupied with proclaiming their disappointment in Russia, whereas last week they were occupied with fulsomely promising Russia that they will neither torture nor execute Snowden.


WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:

Pardon Edward Snowden

Edward Snowden is a national hero and should be immediately issued a a full, free, and absolute pardon for any crimes he has committed or may have committed related to blowing the whistle on secret NSA surveillance programs.

Created: Jun 09, 2013
Issues: Civil Rights and Liberties, Government Reform, Human Rights


Signatures needed by July 09, 2013 to reach goal of 100,000: 0
Total signatures on this petition: 132,080

I found not one single open petition to re evaluate the role of the NSA as to domestic spying.

Sometimes I wonder if we are more interested in "The Ed Snowden Show" than we are in fixing the problem.
