What I see are posts saying, yes the NSA issue needs to be investigated and abuse in the system needs to be fixed, but for some here it seems to be that you have to agree with them that Snowden and Greenwald are supper heroes, or else you are in the "idol worship of the president" group!

ODS is a terrible thing to have, and we need to find a cure.
