So what do you think? Yea or nay?
Should Bradley Manning be a political prisoner?

My sister-in-law posted an article on Facebook regarding Assange. For some reason, the name "Assange" had been filtered, so it read, "***ange."

WTF? Editing out part of someone's name because it spells ass?

::facepalm!::

How assinine.

I think both Assange and Manning are being scapegoated, in some ways. The fact that the Obama administration has chosen to be just as secretive as the Bush administration is extremely disappointing. We need more light shed on the secretive ways of our government.

I agree, LG. I just wonder if people were truly put in danger. I wonder if it's all "consequences be damned". I guess I don't know enough to really say. He sure seems like a smarmy prat, but again, I don't really know.
