The proper question isn't "what do you think should happen with Edward Snowden."
The question to ask Michael Hayden is "Why aren't you in prison for committing felonies against the American people and trampling our Constitution?"
Of course, the answer to that question is that the ruling class isn't held accountable under the law; only we peasants get to enjoy the boot-heel of American "justice" stomping on our throats.

Edward Snowden is a fictitious character played by David Hoffman, his uncle is David Rockefeller jr.

Seemed like he'd do a very biased anti-Snowden answer, but actually seemed quite considered in the end..
