    I wouldn't 'misunderestimate' Snowden, as Dubya used to say. For all we know, you're the one blindly guessing. It was never about getting his name out there in the first place. Just as it wasn't him that revoked his passport. He's a reluctant whistleblower that exhausted all formal channels for his revelations before honoring his sworn duty to the Constitution the way he did. Snowden never wanted to be the story. The story is of reckless abuses of power by an out-of-control Panopticon. He himself is a goddamn American hero that can probably work his way out of a wet paper bag if he has to. Me, I'd give him more credence than you do. When has he ever lied to you?
