Edward Snowden is a man without honor.

[MineralMan]

As my father told me, "If a man does not honor his word, he honors nothing." He is now 88, and in failing health. When he was 19, almost 20, he became one of the youngest B-17 first pilots ever. To my knowledge, he never, as an adult, did not keep to his word.

Anyone who works with the NSA, in any capacity, singns many statements, under oath, promising not to divulge classified information to unauthorized persons. Snowden did not honor those commitments. He is without honor. I do not, and woulld not trust him in anything.

I worked at thhe NSA in the 1960s, at about the same age that my father flew B-17s. I singned many papers similar to what Snowden signed. Over 40 years later, I amstill bound by those. I gave my word and my oath.

That is my opinion. Yours might differ.
