I didn't expect anything less. He has to minimize the damage while displaying a nonchalant attitude towards the situation. He won't be scrambling jets, but he will be pulling all the diplomatic strings he possibly can to get Snowden back to the US. It's politics as usual.
I think Obama is worried about Snowden exposing him further.
Exposing Obama further? Exposing that we use hacking to gain intel on other nations, just as they do on us? Telling these other nations how we do it. Those are the actions of a traitor, not a patriot.
Had Snowden simply pointed out that the domestic spying on American Citizens started under Bush was being continued under Obama, and stayed to face the heat, he would be regarded as a whistleblower, and a valued citizen. The course he took is not that of a citizen that is trying to improve our nation, but someone that hates and despises his naton.
