Whereabouts of former NSA contractor whose leaks to Guardian have caused global controversy a mystery after he does not catch expected flight to Cuba

No one has actually seen him.
He may not even be there.
But we know Putin plays for keeps. If he is in Russia it didn’t happen without his approval.
Enema of the State Department John Kerry said this is *Deeply troubling.* Meh.
Our power and prestige on the global stage has so been eroded by this feckless Hussein regime. Our noses are being rubbed in it by everyone who hates us.
BTW, Both US Secretary of State John Kerry and Senator Charles Schumer have warned Russia and China that they face “consequences” for failing to respond to requests to aid in the extradition of Snowden.
Russia & China are trembling in their boots.
Where’s Waldo?
So, while Benghazi slides into the background along with the IRS crimes, and an immigration bill is being worked through the channels that will certainly change the United States forever, we are led by our short term attention spans like sheep to play “Where’s Waldo” with the Snowden character.....fascinating.....
[post#40] Gotcha covered. ;D
lol. He’ll probably show up as a WH tour guide, or maybe Carney’s stand in double for press briefings.
Maybe he should renounce his citizenship, claim to be Mexican and sneak across the border as an illegal immigrant. Should work out perfectly since according to the Feds there is no way to find an illegal immigrant. Plus when they are given amnesty maybe he’ll be in the clear.
My Ouija Board says he’s in a posh Hotel in a hot tub with a Vodka and nude Anna Chapman. All the while the ‘maid’ is copying everything on his Lab tops for Mr. Putin and the Greater Glory of the Russian eagle.
Carney was golden:
“There has obviously been some news over the weekend,” Carney said referring to Snowden revealing his identity. “There is obviously an investigation under way into this matter and for that reason I will not be able to discuss this individual or this situation.”
Carney referred to President Obama’s comments on the NSA security leaks on Friday. “The president talked on Friday on his views in general on some of the leaks that have occurred and I think he spoke fairly expansively about both his concerns and his beliefs that we need to strike the appropriate balance between national security ... and privacy,” Carney said. He added that the president believes the appropriate balance has been struck but that it was “absolutely an appropriate topic of debate.”
Carney found himself in a testy exchange with CBS News’ Major Garrett, who wondered how the president could welcome a debate on government surveillance if such methods were previously classified until someone leaked top-secret documents. “This is not the manner by which he hoped to have this debate,” Carney said. “And he is interested in having that debate and having this discussed. He believes it’s in our interest as a nation to discuss and debate it and for us to collectively assess where that balance [between national security and privacy] should be struck.”
When asked if U.S. authorities were looking for Snowden or knew of his whereabouts, Carney reitereated that there was an ongoing investigation.
Golden.
May be time to check Capone’s vault again...
I am betting he is on a beach in Thailand, or will be soon after the plastic surgery.
Carney is a wind up cymbal banging monkey.
Well, well, the turkeys have come home to roost.
We are an embarrassment on the world stage today. No FReeper is surprised. This metrosexual has made fools of us. [again]
