“I view him the same way I view an enemy traitor in a time of war who provides my side with information. The traitor may have all kinds of reasons for his actions (I felt I wasn’t getting the appropriate recognition or promotion, I didn’t agree with the direction of the war, etc) but he still supports the basic beliefs of the side he betrays.”

After watching him, I find him to be authentic, committed to the rights of US citizens not to be infringed and a person of immense courage and authenticity. That is enough.
His sacrifice for the American people is immense and valuable.

I will disagree with you. I am glad he did what he did, but his kind will get no respect from me. As I said, even a blind squirrel can find a nut.
