Making You "Comfortable" with Spying Is Obama's Big NSA Fix | FP Passport

Barack Obama held a press conference on Friday afternoon, supposedly to announce reforms of the NSA's far-flung surveillance programs. In reality, the White House briefing was the start of a marketing campaign for the spy programs that have turned so controversial in recent months. And the President's message really boiled down to this: It's more important to persuade people surveillance is useful and legal than to make structural changes to the programs.

"The question is, how do I make the American people more comfortable?" Obama said.

Which sounds suspiciously like relax and enjoy it. 

Why does this guy just keep making it worse?
