Where did Papa Doc obama get the idea that the reason Russia won't extradite Snowden is because of threat of torture or execution? Maybe he got it from mexico since that's usually the reason they won't extradite any of the murderers that come here, kill and then run back over the border.
From the article:
Russian President Vladimir Putin had expressed "strong determination", he said, not to let relations suffer over the dispute "no matter how the situation develops". Putin himself is not personally dealing with the problem, the spokesman said.
But he reiterated Moscow's stance that
Russia "did not hand over, does not hand over and will not hand over anybody".
I know that the truth and obama aren't on speaking terms, but surely the meaning of this statement can't possibly escape him. Neither can it escape his notice that Putin personally dislikes him, holds him in contempt and considers him a pig (since he said so). obama has spent the last five years making himself obnoxious, and now he can't get a favor! Can he seriously be expecting one? Really!!!!
The obama practice of trying people in the press rather than the courts has finally caught up with him. Lon Snowden, Ed's father exposed the maggoty underbelly of the obama regime.

The father of National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden said Friday his son has been so vilified by the Obama administration and members of Congress that he is now better off staying in Russia.
Lon Snowden of Allentown, Pa., had been working behind the scenes with lawyers to try to find a way his son could get a fair trial in the U.S. Edward Snowden has been charged in federal court in Alexandria with violating the Espionage Act by leaking details of NSA surveillance.
But in a telephone interview with The Associated Press, the elder Snowden said he has lost faith in recent weeks that his son would be treated fairly by the Justice Department
Mr. Snowden is late to the party, there are those of us who never had any faith that this Justice Department would treat anyone fairly. They'll be killed like Michael Hastings was killed, or vilified no matter what the court says like George Zimmerman is.
I'm so glad that Putin is pigeonholing obama in the inconsequential category. It couldn't happen to a more deserving person, nor done by a more capable man.
