It's just another target for pigeons!



I'll bet someone is very disappointed today!
Because whoever built that statue expected Snowden to get the Nobel Peace Prize today!

And there's Glenn, standing next to it.
Must be a coincidence that he was the first one to see it, huh?

Naw, I'll bet you a brazillion dollars he thought that Snowden was going to win the Nobel Peace Prize, too.
Because the Guardian took a poll, don'tcha ya know.
The poll results are in the article in the Good Reads forum, in a thread by Judy Lynn.

To which I would like to say, Thank you, Judy!!
