I like the way many have drooled over what was released too but never gave two ****s where their "right /left" verbal diarrhea was sourced.
4 reasons why Bradley Manning deserves a medal
- Thread starter JBeee
- Start date
"Tax... a liberal at heart? You want him dead. I'd say you are a conservative in the making."
Some conservatives (those who did not see the light to begin with) are liberals who got mugged, literally or figuratively.
As far as medals, I am sure CUBert would love to award one each for Kim Philby, Alger Hiss and the Rosenbergs. And honorary ones for Pol Pot, Mao Tse Tung and Uncle Joe Stalin.
And let us not forget Jane Fonda and Michael Moore.

You've commented on and used Wikileaks information to bolster your political views. That makes you just as guilty as Manning.
Of course I did, petros. I had no idea who the Rosenbergs, Alger Hiss, Kim Philby were before I never read anything about them on Wikileaks. And of course I never saw, along with millions of others Jane Fonda riding the VietCong tank or saw Michel Moores crockumentaries on Wikileaks.
Get real, woman!

petros, you may clip my post in an attempt to to discredit me but in real life, people who are honest - in other words, not on your wavelength - will always know enough to scroll back a couple of posts and see who and what you REALLY are.
I only favor capital punishment because of the high cost to taxpayers to keep people in jail and because our socialist judges don't grasp the meaning of life sentence. To them it means time served prior to sentencing and a group hug. So hanging gaurantees no repeat offenders. I agree that a life in jail is a much more severe sentence.
At least down here it costs more to execute than to keep them locked up with all the appeals they get.
Oh give it a break!
First of all, Bradley Manning has NOT undergone anything approaching torture..........he has not been beaten, water-boarded, subjected to any form of physical coercion.
He HAS had his undies taken away......because he keeps threatening to kill himself, as if anyone could care, the stupid, self-loathing little pissant.
He is NOT allowed to mix with the other inmates.....because they are all military, and despite their obvious faults, one doubts their tolerance of treasonous little pricks.....and some of them may have a tendency to act out violently.
Now, imagine the outrage if poor wittle Bradley was found swinging in his cell, or was cut unto death in the showers........oh the Conspiracy Theories!!!!!
And the proof of Manning's absolute disregard for the oath he took, the well-being of his nation, or his own honor exists in the fact he did not pick out damaging material for release.....he let it ALL go.......
He deserves to be shot.
He is a treasonous little twit, without the slightest excuse other than his own lack of positive character.
It is my deepest hope that he spends the next 70 years in solitary, as execution is out of the question, as I understand it.
I've got to say it again.....this is the most brain-dead statement ever written on these threads..... absolutely beyond comprehension.
Bradley Manning deserves at least 25+ years in the U.S. Penitentiary Leavenworth, Kansas.
These documents were not that Earth shattering, but they were secret. Secrets he was sworn to uphold. Bradley Manning is a traitor and deserves what ever he gets.

Certainly not. If you met my 1st wife you would see it is not always physical.
He is being held in a Military prison - Just as child molesters are segregated he is as well. I am sure someone would attack or kill him given the chance just as they do with child molesters and those that murder children.
Could he be given more freedom within the prison. I would say yes.
Lastly - no one that has defended him has answered this question.
Then he would also be complicit in the murders of individuals and complete families, including children and women at the hands of Iraqi insurgents and the Taliban. And as such be tried in a Military Court and subject to the Death Penalty.
Is there room for two in Mannings cell?
If the top of the Totem pole who also took an oath to uphold the laws and secrects of the land and walked away then so should the bottom of the pole.
If not, then that makes Manning a sceond class citizen in a nation that claims all are equal.
He was sentenced to jail. The one person convicted. Scooter later had his sentence commuted by Bush the Lesser.Served no time. That was another crime, pardon a treasonous act.
United States v. Libby - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Never said I liked it. Many like you are I are disgusted but that does not excuse Manning.
When you compare what Libby got and what people want out of Manning, I say the lad has done more than his fair share of hard time. All the networks and print media agencies including our own. Have all made good money off of the lad. The 250,000 fine should be paid by those who benefitted.
Correct me if I'm wrong but haven't you posted a Wikileak or two or at least read them and found the content to be be disappointing in respects to comments made by our own Govt and various overlords?
We all stand guilty right alongside.
Some information shouldn't have gotten out in respects to investigations of terrorists but when it comes to comments or actions made by elected officials who are there in the name of the public by the choosing of the public then their personal comments and actions are all fair game.
I do have doubts that anyone would have been harmed who were insiders. Any "good" intelligence agency will assign someone with a code name. Take Osama bin Laden's CIA payroll name of Tim Osman for example.
