Well, Evo MORALES and SNOWDEN might have put some thought intor their actions

[UTUSN]

SO funny, the tweets among the PRESIDENTS, like, "Cristina!1 (President of Argentina) I'm not allowed to leave AUSTRIA!1" (Evo to President of Argentina.) And how these PRESIDENTS (like Shrub in the past) - AND the ZIMMERMAN defense attorney on Day 1 and the "governor" of TX/GOODHAIR, "decide"/believe they can JOKE, like MADURO/Venezuela ended the press conference with, "No more questions, gotta go, SNOWDEN is waiting for me!1"

He was soooo sure Snowden was on the plane, he had his Euro-stooges block their flight. Guess what? No Snowden. Epic Fail for Obama's Surveillence State.

I am certainly not surprised. He has hit the powers-that-be where it hurts. In the end, they will destroy Snowden, but not before they take a real beating on the world stage.
