(26,273 posts)I don't understand anyone that thinks people with security clearances should steal their nations secrets and give them over to such trustworthy people like the Chinese and the Russians. It isn't like other people in the program didn't come out right here in the US to intelligently discus their negative fears of the program. They managed to do this here in the US without stealing classified information and giving it to the Chinese and the Russians. I mean it doesn't take a genius to see the guy is no mythical hero. There is an intelligent way to discus the NSA and thoughts on spying. There s a legal process to whistle blowing that this guy doesn't fit either. Then again there is this weird cult hero worship of a guy that obviously doesn't have the free worlds best interests at stake. Why do I know this, because he ran to China and Russia, not France or Sweden. I fear the whole worship of this idiot will prevent any congressional interest in reviewing the check and balance process to the NSA program.
