yesterday the president is allowing edward snowden to pull the puppet strings. this man is a traitor to our country and the president somehow feels he has to cater to him. for the last two months since this issue has been out there, the president has been awol, m.i.a. he's been silent. you have saxby chambliss, myself, no president. in a time of war to be setting up a task force to tell him what he should be doing. can you imagine harry truman, winston church hill doing this? every program we have is always susceptible to reform. to be silent about it and suddenly jump because edward snowden has revealed secrets and put our country at risk, it's somehow like a moral equivalency. i wish he showed the same anger toward edward snowden as he did toward republicans on obama care. there was no outrage there when he was asked do you think he's a patriot? what do you mean you don't think he is? this man's a traitor. to me commander in chief should show much more war time leadership than has been show by the president on this issue. >> he did say that edward snowden shou

does not think of edward snowden as a whistleblower. he said he is not a patriot in his words but it did inspire to trigger this debate that the president believes is positive. he was very passionate in defending obama care, going after the republicans, making it clear that if the republicans had their way, he said 30 million americans would not be eligible for affordable health care and he's clearly indicated he's willing to make a major fight on all of these issues. we're going to have extensive coverage coming up on "the lead." later i'll be back at 5:00 p.m. in "the situation room." but let's turn it over to john berman. he's picking up our coverage in "the lead." >> thank you so much, wolf. i'm john berman filling in for jake tapper while he's away. the president just wrapped up his press conference as you saw. he's expected to leave tomorrow for a week-long vacation with his family on martha's vineyard. he covered everything from the controversy over edward snowden and he had some fascinating words about mr. snowden to the investi

snowden i think he's a traitor some tough words for edward snowden he's a traitor that despite these objections to snowden there's legislation afoot on capitol hill right now that would have had a chance of passing or even getting a committee hearing have not been for these leaks about the n.s.a. in the pfizer court and yet there's lawmakers who've taken the most of. manager of these leaks to write this legislation are unwilling to give any praise to edward snowden house intelligence committee member congressman adam schiff managers introduced a number of reforms to the pfizer court had with this to say about snowden we don't condone or can't condone people deciding for themselves what to declassify that would not allow us to have any kind of a national security system so i think we have to take that very seriously just as that we took the manning case very seriously on the other side of the hill senator richard blumenthal of course who's introduced his own set of eyes a court reforms for also condemned snowden's actions snowden and anyone could have raised these issues in the way th

that section so you kind of see these two different avenues forming on congress of what to do with edward snowden's leaks essentially interesting now what would this bill give tell what this bill give telecommunications companies the right to deny the government access to any requests you know this is it just simply going to allow them to tell in these telecommunications companies are put on a gag order when they receive this order they can't tell who their users that they're handing over their information they can't tell anyone this bill would allow these companies to at least reveal how many of their users are being affected by this but still the telecom communications companies there's all sorts of tricks that the government uses to make sure that they play ball to hand over the data that they want now first event foremost how do these latest revelations kind of jive with the previous claims that were made by the president of the intel committee that members have enough information about these programs to conduct proper proper oversight is that just nonsense do they have enough would t

i blame wikileaks much more than edward snowden at this point.t's become a much different story than maybe even edward snowden, himself, wanted. >> you hear this a lot from critics of edward snowden who says this is damaging to real whistleblowers. dinah, i want your response to that. >> i don't think so. it's a basic principle that asylum seekers get to choose where they get asylum. that's just true all over the world. it would be great if britain, germany, sweden, norway, iceland would give edward snowden asylum, but there's very little chance of that because of the, you know, intense u.s. pressure to get him back. and the fact these are u.s. allies. and the fact that some of these governments, in fact, benefit from all the surveillance that he revealed. as far as, you know, the nefarious connection to wikileaks, i don't think there's much we can infer from that. unfortunately, for better or worse, wikileaks is probably the organization in the world with the most experience in dealing with things like nsa pursuit right now. >> john, you've been
