Why Edward Snowdon is no hero

It is amazing to me that there are people out there that think Edward Snowdon is a hero. How is betraying your country heroic? So he says the American public has a right to know that they are being watched by the NSA, well I say WHO CARES? If you're not doing anything illegal or questionable then why would you care if the NSA is wiretapping terrorists and/or criminals. In what capacity is Snowdon even remotely qualifed to determine what is in the countries best interest? Is it his education? Um no there because he barely passsed high school.


Oh sure, he claims to have worked toward a Master's from some online university but I question 
that give that he has never finished anything he started. How can you work toward a Master's when you've never even completed a bachlor's???

He couldn't even finish the Army reserves. There's always a reson why he can't finish something. Now how is it he was hired by the NSA is a complete mystery. I suspect he lied and forged his credentials and they didn't check, which is why they deserved this. But as far as this loser being anything but a traitor, please.

So then is guy creeps off to Russia, of all places. Oh yeah, they are totally into personal freedoms and freedom of expression. Obviously this guy did a dismal, idiotic job of planning his escape. Where is the evidence, in all that this moron has done, that this guy is anything but an attention seeking traitor?

Better tread lightly in Russia, my friend. They are going to get tired of your stupid butt soon and when they do, you could end up serving time for something silly like j-walking. And when they do arrest you, you might just be spending time in beautiful, downtown Syberia. Oh please....News link
