They seem like vastly different issues that don't preclude one another. Also, I read the article and cannot find where Snowden says he doesn't have any emails he claims he sent. I'm unsure if he claimed he tried to complain about wiretapping through emails or in person. Either way it matters not to me. Snowden isn't what matters to me. That's a distraction. The illegal wiretapping of Americans and frankly any wiretapping without a warrant targeting a specific individual is what concerns me. I'm baffled by people who defend this but I guess I could find people to defend just about any horrible act out there.
