I wonder if the U.S. will send a drone there to kill him?


Doesn't say anything about Russia being his final destination. He's only on a plane going to Russia, but he is looking to go to Ecuador. Why be a smart ass about it? If and when we decide to do the wet work, it will get done.

For crap's sake he had a GED and never finished more than five months of mil service! I know people with Intel and Pol Science advanced degrees who can't get hired, but they hire a flunky like Snowden and expect it to go well? Really?

Snowden put a lot of egg on the face of the U.S. government with his revelations. Just a peep at how the tentacles of the security-state have helped eviscerate the intent of the Constitution. We no longer live in the country built by our Founding Fathers.

It is funny as hell that Snowden had to seek assylum in countries not known for having stellar human-rights records. Has it now gotten that bad for the rights of individuals here in the U.S.?

I have been to many of those countries. He'll be sorry as hades he went.

The world and Americans are tired of President Obama's empty promises.  President Obama said that those responsible for Benghazi would suffer the consequences.  President Obama promised that the killing of innocent citizens must be stopped and those guilty held responsible in Syria.

We have a wimp for a leader and about that there is no dispute.
