What was interesting was a CNN story about Snowden where the subheadline running throughout the story was that Snowden claimed he made $200k, and his employer(BAH) said it was $125k. Just running that throughout the story lends credence to those who are inclined to think of him as a traitor. "If he would lie about his salary, what else is he lying about" Thats how I interpreted it anyway.

Maybe BAH was not counting things like stock options (or stock?), or subtracting 401k contributions, etc. Unfortunately, most people will not see it this way. Most people will assume that everyone is using common definitions of these words.
