Well, Michael is definitely one of the bad ones now. And it's not that he was willing to kill to save his child... I see that as a morally justifiable act, given propagation of the species, however... it's the fact that he was willing to play the fool so easily by killing people in the service of the Others, who he has no reason to trust, and betray his friends who he can trust and who want to help him get his son back. That makes him a bad, bad man.
I loved Sayid's line, "his actions are not those of a man who is telling the truth." Is the truth a redeeming factor? Sayid does bad things all the time, but he always does them in the name of Truth... so where does that leave him?
