In reply to the discussion: Is there specific evidence that Edward Snowden is a spy for Russia? [View all]Pepper Cat
(23 posts)28. "Perhaps"? "Is it possible..."? Whatever happened to "specific evidence"?

By the way, "Is it possible" that Jimmy Carter's emails were monitored? Remember, the bar is lower now. It's all about whether something is possible, rather than evidence.
