Don't be nosy about Fast and Furious

CNN) -- We are a nosy country.

Though to be fair, it's not entirely our fault. Between the 24/7 news cycle, social media and reality TV, we have been spoon fed other people's private business for so long we now assume it's a given to know everything. And if there are people who choose not to disclose, they must be hiding something. Being told that something's "none of your business" is slowly being characterized as rude, and if such a statement is coming from the government, it seems incriminating.

Times have changed. Yet, not everything is our business. And in the political arena, there are things that should be and need to be kept quiet.

This is pretty unbelievable. I have to hand it to Glenn Greenwald though for ripping this CNN hack a new one.

[ohhhhhhhhhm]

If anything, Americans aren't nosy enough, frankly.

Were they legal?
Hell no.
Were they effective?
Who knows?
Were they done as a way to keep America safe?
Yes.

To me it seems like a lot of people on the left share this writer's opinion. Obama's in office, we like him so don't make problems for him, don't rock the boat asking about other things. It's disgusting. When a conservative gets in office the same people who want answers regarding gun walking are suddenly shy about wanting answers to the scandal of the day under their political preference. I hate when people willingly stick their head in the sand.
