I have no idea, but Joe Biden said on meet the press that we will respond.

My initial reaction is the less said and done the better. As a nation we have more exposure, therefore, we have more to lose.

I have noted for sometime the hypocrisy of our outrage at being hacked when we hack foreign systems all the time

We have to respond. Just letting it go just encourages Russia and emboldens them more. We need to do something to let them know that they do not want to play this game with us and we will not just sit here and take it.

We have to respond.

How should we respond?

To think we haven't also hacked, or even began doing it before they did I think is a little naïve. These comments and statements in the press are for public/press consumption.

Pretty funny that they've been suggesting it's been Russian's hacking us for months...now we are going to respond? Wonder why...what event is coming up???

We should respond and no need to announce we are doing so.

As 85 implie above, it is very common for pols to say something for one audience and something else for another...

oh, well then I guess it's ok then!

Actually, I was alluding to the repub outrage at Hillary doing exactly that. But lets get real. We all give different data to different players in the situation. And I know of no reason for public discussion of topics such as this. Imagine D-Day today...lofl
