So when do we charge Leaky Leahy with treason? He actually told the enemy something he didn’t know.

> That’s a tough sell in Snowden’s case, legal experts say. “I do not believe it is treason,” said George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley. “There is nothing to suggest that his motivation was to assist our enemies or a foreign power.”

Because his motive had nothing to do with treason. He was trying to wake the American people up to what’s happening to their freedom and liberties.
As predicted we knew there’d be spin control. No, we don’t spy on the American people like “that”. We don’t monitor your phone calls, texts, emails, or credit transactions unless you get flagged for some reason. Right. Thats not what numerous articles and news reports have said about the Bluffdale facility. We knew they’d paint Snowden as a traitor and say he divulged national secrets to our enemies. You know I keep hearing this BS and they have never said what secrets or to which enemy. It’s BS; mindless political phrasing and posturing to paint him as an uneducated rogue element that intends to do harm to the federal government. If he’s so uneducated, why’d you hire him in the first place. Maybe because he had a pencil talent or gift that they could exploit and use to their benefit. BTW it doesnt appear that so many of the college educated are any more intelligent than their counterparts; they just have a hell of a large student loan to pay back nd no one will hire them. Meanwhile there are hackers that never attended college that can run circles around them on an intellectual level...

There is no basis to charge anyone from Congress or the Senate, they don't require security clearances once a "need to know" is established based on their function, so no former oath or signature of an oath was ever sworn for evidence, to "safeguard" our nations defense. Heck, you could put a foreigner in the Oval office with those prerequisites!
