“‘There is an awful lot of chatter out there,’ Senator Saxby Chambliss, the top Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee, said on NBC’s ‘Meet the Press.’ He said ‘chatter’ – electronically monitored communications among terrorism suspects about the planning of a possible attack – was ‘very reminiscent of what we saw pre-9/11.’ Chambliss said one of the surveillance programs revealed by former spy agency contractor Edward Snowden had helped. Those programs ‘allow us to have the ability to gather this chatter,’ he said. ‘If we did not have these programs then we simply wouldn’t be able to listen in on the bad guys.'”
