I am being serious, so much so that you seem to agree with a lot of what I said; obviously, you say, Snowden doesn't understand all the secret programs he's been a part of disclosing, yet there he is, telling journalists that he easily could have read Barack Obama's email had he only had his private email address.
It doesn't matter for the material he disclosed, which we can indeed evaluate on our own. But it does matter for the things Snowden is saying that aren't backed up by that material, such as his supposed ability to read Barack Obama's emails.
I'm still waiting for the NSA to send me back the information I requested off of my personal dovecot installation. Hopefully they'll get around to it soon as I accidentally deleted an email and don't want to have to go through the 'Reset Password' route. :(
