+1, right on! "The point of Juan Cole's original piece is clearly that Snowden himself is irrelevant to the contents of the leak."

I blogged about the disclosures yesterday and never mentioned Snowden's name. While I agree that what he did is likely illegal, that has not much bearing on mis-deeds of our government, which is the important issue. Who cares if Daniel Ellsberg’s whistle blowing was illegal?
