That's your opinion which you are entitled to but unless you are a mental health care professional it really has no bearing regarding the situation. Far as i can determine Asperger's effects different people in different ways but lets leave it up to the experts.

And those "classified US computers" obviously are not as classified or secure as "They" thought.

Whats "there" excuse for being defeated by a youngster with a keyboard?

Will incarceration of the guy make you feel any safer in your bed at night knowing hes safely tucked away and warehoused while the same trained monkeys responsible for the creation and security of such a system are still in charge?

Your right his mental health condition has no bearing on the case in either the US or in the UK. The British judge who ordered approved his extradition said so in her ruling making a specific reference that it did not compromise his human rights.

I doubt the Home Secretary is going to deny extradition on his mental health when a judge already ruled it as not a factor,

These hacks of the of our government and our political parties have far more sinister implications than you all seem to realize. There are any number of ways this could fly wildly out of control and go beyond the point of fixing.

You say this like it is a bad thing...
