Pursuit of Snowden proves leaker’s point

I hear all about this National Security Agency and Edward Snowden business and have to wonder, who’s telling whom what?

Here we have this Snowden guy who exposed our country’s maybe not-so-constitutional practices and proves it by moving about the world. “He’s here in China.” “Now he’s here in Russia.”

There was a picture of a seat on an airplane he was supposed to occupy. Here’s a citizen being followed around, and by whom? The NSA.

Snowden is proving his point by simply letting the NSA tell on itself.

The media are reporting every move of this guy, and so one might ask, who is it leaking this information to the media? It certainly isn’t Snowden if he’s on the run.

If anyone is exposing secrets, it’s the NSA and the media with their blow by blow account of where he is.

All Snowden has to say is, “Watch for yourself what this country’s capabilities are. It’s right there in the news, and I didn’t have to say one thing.”

Talk about stepping on your own shirt tail and trying to blame someone else.
