It's a different country now than it was..he would of been locked away and the keys thrown away, which will still happen if he ever gets caught. If the govt ever gets their hands on him he will never get out of jail.
Manning was military and suffered through their process, not due process.

I have to very much disagree with you re: the outcome of Snowden, Thomas Drake, the NSA snooper that is currently on the talk circuit leaked docs from his NSA stash just in 2010.

I can't think of any reason other than BO that would make Snowden not rake it in like Drake.

Love the Drake!
