The bottom line is this. Since Obama was elected, people on the right have screamed bloody murder for a government insider to come forward and expose the BS going on behind closed doors.
Snowden did exactly that.
Now the very same people who demanded a government insider come forward are the ones calling him every name in the book.
This is known by any thinking being as blatant hypocrisy.
None of the above can be denied as it is all historically and logically accurate. So the question then becomes, why should people on the right ever expect any insider to blow the whistle EVER AGAIN when they have thoroughly proven they are no more trustworthy than a freaking Democrat?
I disagree with your analysis. The people on the right who wanted whistleblowers to expose what was going on are NOT calling him every name in the book. It’s the folks labeled as “neocons”, the industrial complex types, the ruling class who are doing that.....not the common sense, liberty loving REAL conservatives. It’s becoming easier and easier to know who to trust and who not to trust in the Republican ranks with just this one issue.
