> The fact that he didn't have to complete high school, (he does have a GED) to get a job at Booz paying $200k/year should be speak to his intelligence.

Alternatively, I'd read the smear this way: A guy who could not even finish high school could do this much damage to the NSA, which speaks to how broken the leadership is there. Many heads should roll.

A GED doesn't imply they couldn't finish. It demonstrates they didn't finish. Nothing more.

Fair enough, but my bigger point is:

<insert smear here> could do this much damage. Well you guys hire him and you fucked up, so I'm holding your butts accountable. Clearly you can't control the surveillance monster you created.
