I know all of you geopolitics geeks have found this captivating.
First of all, I am very impressed with Kerry's State Department for its effectiveness in shutting down almost every avenue of escape for Snowden. Personally, I was ambivalent about Ecuador's Correa before. I thought he was smart because he has an academic/technocratic background, but a little too chummy with Hugo Chavez. But this clip makes him look like a total weasel. I mean, it's fine to not grant Snowden asylum, but the way he responded just makes him look like a shady used car salesman backing out on a warranty.
And this total show of disrespect to Bolivia's leader is unacceptable. France, et al. would never have re-routed a plane carrying Chile's Pinera or Argentina's Fernandez. Poor, poor Bolivia.
