Treason is a bitch, isn't it Julie?

What makes WikiLeaks any different than the NY Slimes? 

Spilling classified information is something that's done pretty much all the time anymore, especially by left wing moonbat publications like the Slimes, NY and LA.

Yep, the NY Slimes leaked many classified documents under President Bush.

He better not drop the soap in the shower he may get a unexpected suprise in there

Yeah about that...

...it now appears Manning is openly homosexual and he went through a break-up prior to his contacting WikiLeaks:

The suspect in the leaking of classified military files, Spc. Bradley Manning,  voiced his disgust with US Army commanders and U.S. "society at large" on his Facebook page just prior to his alleged downloading of thousands of secret documents, according to the British news media.
 
According to one story appearing in Britain's The Telegraph,  Manning, who served as a US Army intelligence analyst, became depressed after a break-up with his homosexual campanion.

Bradley Manning: the new Guy Burgess.

Like I said--amazing how the "repeal DADT" crowd has been pretty ****ing silent of late.

The brig at Q is the DOD regional confinement facility, I expect he's in pretrial confinement or something that's as near to it as you can get.

The idiot that runs WikiLeaks...who IMHO belongs in a cell next to Manning...is claiming that little Bradley is being held...not at Quantico...but in a facility in Kuwait that is "like a second Gitmo"...in an effort to "deny him reasonalble legal representation".

!!! He's a poufter, and DU is wonders about the effect on DADT !!!

I could care less personally whether he was protesting DADT or the fact there aren't meatless fridays at the KBR dining facility.

What I DO care about as a soldier...and again speaking strictly for myself...is the fact this idiot has put my life and the lives of every one of us serving in Afghanistan at increased risk.  And Mr. Assange is just as culpable.  They both should pay a high price for their treason in my personal opinion.

We're already seeing in local news reports here of the insurgents killing locals for being "U.S. Spies"...since the release of the doccuments.

That is blood on the hands of WikiLeaks and Bradley Manning.

Bringing DADT into this simply provides cover for Manning and a chance for the left and the MSM to portray him as a sympathetic person who was wronged by society, who shouldn't be held accountable for his actions.
