Josh Marshal over at TPM offers a splendid essay in which he describes the internal ethical debate he has had with himself over the Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden stories. It is a strong example of how one man fits Real Life's shifting patterns of gray against our black-and-white conceptions of ideology.I find it a wonderful example of sober judgement, an easy to read story of the struggle between reason and emotion. As for the emotional tone of the essay, that emotion would be calm.
If you could use a break from head-clashing let this essay be your mental sorbet.
