    Snowden is a textbook example of why organizations should not be allowed to police themselves or control the avenues of reporting misconduct.

    There should be a memorial to him in DC. Ruined his life to tell the people what their elected officials are doing with all of the power we grant them.

    But no, to save face, ego, etc we drove him into the willing arms of Putin to be able to use as a propaganda tool so he wouldn’t be killed for daring to speak truth to power.

    Support for prosecuting him did untold damage to my opinion of Obama.
