I am a contractor, I did not take this oath.

I didn't think so.

I've never been a contractor; always worked for the glorious federal government (NSA, did you catch that clear sign of respect?).

It seems to me that an easy way to get around anyone who might have scruples about their oath to defend the Constitution against enemies foreign or domestic, would be to have contractors do the dirty work.

The clause in their contract to not disclose classified information is just that: a contract, with penalties for not fulfilling it.

At least they won't burn in hell for telling all, just some time in jail and a check to fedgov.

Correct; unless of course he is apprehended and charge with Treason -- which is a capital crime.

I am not willing to go so far as calling him a traitor, but he certainly broke his oath (or contract, if you prefer).
