Well then...We can't allow ourselves to believe the narrative that Swowden is the bad guy in this. Greenwald keeps on threatening to "release" earth-shattering info, but still hasn't. At this rate of degradation of trust of our guv, we all need to know just how evil they are before it's either too late or it doesn't matter....
Moreover, LE and the US military need to know that they are on the side of righteousness....and NOT just pawns in some political game.
