Nope.
I think
if Snowden's intentions were pure in that he wanted to bring awareness to a government that's snooping on what you're doing...you don't need to fly off to a Chinese controlled island or hang out in a Russian airport terminal while despot 3rd World crapholes bid on your residency. There's a right way to whistleblow in this nation and be defended for doing it. He didn't do it and from his own admission he sought the job just so he could gather intel and expose the government. He's not a traitor...he's a spy!
If you all really thought the government wasn't doing this DECADES ago then you're fooling only yourselves!
Now, what should be the rallying cry everyone should be yelling is why our government outsourced Top Secret access to 3rd party vendors. Why weren't they doing this all "in-house"?
