"When is it morally imperative for an individual to act beyond the prescribed role of his/her office in order to secure what he/she perceives to be the greater good?" Even phrased this delicately, this question has a ring of snark to it. Still, I am genuinely curious to know how such individuals regard their actions as ethical -- as I'm fairly certain he does.
