Exactly. Even though he is breaking laws, he is exposing an even more egregious breaking of laws by government agencies. Buy him a steak dinner and give the real law breakers blindfolds and last cigarettes.
Just as there is nothing more dangerous than a killer with a badge, there is also nothing more dangerous than a government without a moral compass.
So after Snowden came out and the media had some time to digest his disclsoures, certain syncophants came out publicly to say that he was lying because no agent would have the capability to listen in on anyone’s conversation. They were just collating “metadata”.

Snowden has many in Washington squealing.
Yep - and many on FR are so caught up in the meme that "national Security" trumps all so he is guilty of treason - some of those same folks are oh-so-quick to quote Ben Franklin when he he said “Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.”
I guess that's why our side has so much trouble pulling together to oust an Obama because the perfect conservative is not available - conflicts with one's sensibilities can make even a so-called Constitutional Conservative decide that absolutism in Constitutional principles can be waived if some of it offends their personal sensibilities. They end up being no more morally grounded than the Left - only the Left can do what they cannot and will not do; band together to win individual battles and relentlessly pursue even baby steps to halt or slow down the ever-quickening pace of those that would destroy this Nation. They end up protecting and defending those that would undo them. Irony at its finest.
