I think the U.S. government is making a huge mistake by labeling Snowden as a traitor. All he did was tell us what the NSA has been up to. Is that treason? Now, in order to show how non-threatening their spying on us is, the administration has been trotting out their PR puppets to explain exactly what the NSA has been doing. But wait, shouldn't those officials be arrested and labeled as traitors? Think about it. They're doing the same thing Snowden did, telling the American public what has been going on behind the scenes.
: This morning, we hear Edward Snowden, the NSA leaker, is on the move out of Hong Kong. Supposedly with the help of WikiLeaks, he's flown to Moscow and is heading for Cuba. I'm surprised there hasn't been more discussion about the NSA leaks on this forum.
