NSA Director Keith Alexander Is Reportedly Stepping Down

Daniel_Stuckey writes "Keith Alexander will step down by April or May of next year. What's more, the agency's deputy director Chris Inglis also plans to retire by the end of next year, anonymous US officials told Reuters today. Though the news comes in the midst of a global public backlash over the NSA's widespread surveillance programs, it's worth pointing out that Alexander had revealed his plans to retire before Edward Snowden leaked details of PRISM in June. Officials didn't give a reason for his departure."

A better idea

Throw them both in prison for ten years for breaking the law.

Yeah, what a punishment

They should give him a t-shirt that says "I raped my country's Constitution and all I got was full my federal pension, lifetime healthcare benefits, full pardon for all my crimes, and this lousy t-shirt."

Ha, even on the HIGHLY UNLIKELY chance any of these scumbags would ever be charged with anything, they would get a full Presidential pardon before the ink even dried on their arrest warrants.

Then throw congress in jail for making it legal. The Patriot act is what you get when you let anger guide your choices.
