Ecuador: Decision on Edward Snowden asylum could take months

12. They are laughing at us. There is no hurry about ending it.

We have juvenile voyeurs in the basement, expensive ones too, with really big guns, and they cannot even protect all this "data" they have collected, nor do they know what to do with it.

What they don't get is that Putin and the Chinese don't want that "data", they know already what we are doing, the data itself is useless to them, if it ever was useful to anybody, which is doubtful. They think we are fools, and they are correct.

But having Snowden flit from place to place with us in embarassed pursuit, hoist by our own petard, that is priceless. And that is also why our "leaders" are in such a state about it.

Mr. Snowden does appear likely be be in limbo for some time.
