Posted  06/14/13
								

				 
								 				There has been a media circus surrounding the escapades of Edward Snowden, the NSA whistleblower who recently leaked classified information on the government’s massive surveillance of our phone and email communications.  Some view him as a hero for exposing what many see as an indefensible intrusion into our privacy.  Others view him as a traitor for threatening to undermine a major bulwark in this country’s war...
