"I'd be much more interested in hearing what Snowden's co-workers and bosses think. It's too bad he wasn't there long enough to develop any real relationships with them before he flew off to Hong Kong to break his oath."
I recall there was an interview late-June with one of his colleagues that expressed roughly "I understand but wish he hadn't done it alone." Sorry I can't find the reference at the moment. In any case, the media fixation on this guy's judgement, training, loyalty or whatever is moot at this point. He's a person, so he's flawed. This all may have just been a royal screw-up on his part. So what? The issue should be what was disclosed (even if misguided or accidental) and how it relates to the constitution of the United States. It's fine to dismiss him as weasel or a mole -- provided collective attention is given to these questionable moves at the highest levels of our government. I'll be disappointed if the conclusion is just fascism: "Do absolutely anything to protect U.S. economic interests from harm."
