Edward Snowden is the self-proclaimed Whisleblower who fled to Hong Kong in China after revealing data-collection techniques done by the United States Government.
But who is he really? A patriot? A martyr? A stooge? A mole? A traitor?
If you watch the national news or read Twitter, you'll think he's either Benedict Arnold or the best thing to happen to this country since sliced bread. However, something about him just doesn't ring true and each day that goes by brings new revelations about his past and his connections.
If Snowden isn't given asylum by Russia or some other country diametrically opposed to the U.S., the erstwhile Spy will eventually be arrested and brought to trial here in his own country. And then the real 'splainin will begin and maybe we can cut through the crap.
