U.S. Says Snowden Wouldn't Face Death Penalty - WSJ.com

Now if he gets where the drones can get to him that might be something he does have to worry about.

Sad day when a citizen risks his existence to provide his fellow citizens the transparency in government that our elected official promised he would do.

Is he an enemy of the state or a friend to the citizens?

Because Holder and the administration that he works for have shown themselves to be oh-so-reliable when it comes to standing by their promises...

Snowden will never come back.

At least our government now openly admits to torture of their citizens.
Probably what they did to Manning.
