Bush is insisting that a NSA Internet surveillance program started during his administration ‘guaranteed’ civil liberties, and that Edward Snowden ‘damaged the country’ by leaking details about it. In an interview with CNN, Bush was confident that ‘the Obama administration will deal’ with Snowden and the fallout from his leaks. ‘I think he damaged the security of the country,’ he explained. ‘I put the program in place to protect the country, and one of the certainties is civil liberties were guaranteed.’ The former president added that his program had found ‘the proper balance’ between privacy and security.”
