Edward Snowden…
He did not vote for Obummer in 2008. He supports internet reedom organizations. Snowden disliked Obama's C_A director appointment of Leon Panetta, saying "Obuma just named a fucking politician to run the C_A."
Snowden was also offended by a possible ban on assault weapons, writing "Me and all my lunatic, gun-toting NRA compatriots would be on the steps of Congress before the C-Span feed finished".[31] Snowden disliked Obama's economic policies, was against Social Security, and favored Ron Paul's call for a return to the gold standard."
Feeling a humanitarian obligation to fight in the Iraq War to help free oppressed people,[21] Snowden enlisted in the United States Army Reserve on May 7, 2004, as a Special Forces candidate through its 18X enlistment option.[33] He did not complete the training.[6] After breaking both legs in a training accident,[34] he was discharged on September 28, 2004.
After seeing the C_A blackmail a Geneva banker and not being believed, he quit the agency.
Snowden has said he was an infrastructure analyst, which meant that his job was to look for new ways to break into Internet and telephone traffic around the world.[49] On March 15, 2013—three days after what he later called his "breaking point" of "seeing the Director of National Intelligence, James Clopper, directly lie under oath to Congress"[50]—Snowden quit his job at Dell!
Thereis so much more in this wikipedia article. It is enough to convince me Snowden is a Patriot! He was not a clown. He hated what the intel community was doing behind our backs and lying about it.
SNOWDEN IS WORKING FOR THE U.S.
