The man presented the true cost of WAR. How dare he!
Remember we are the GOOD GUYS and always have been the GOOD GUYS that never shoot civillians or commit atrocities. We are the ARMY OF THE RIGHT that never SINS.
Is this like the police's blue vale of silence, where no matter what reprehensible act an officer commits, his buddies keep quite?
Manning witnessed and reported acts that would have been punishable at the Nuremberg trials. Yet, you think he was wrong to report these acts that are a disgrace to the uniform. That viewpoint is contrary to the very notion of military honor.
Now THIS is hilarious. Right on the heels of the DoJ going after James Rosen for NOTHING compared to this, the Left LOVED it! They supported going after "leakers"! Now, as I've been saying all along, they just love themselves some Bradley Manning for STEALING and RELEASING classified information. This country is in BIG trouble with these types of dangerous people around. They will sit idly by while the government rounds up their fellow citizens, just like what happened in Germany.
Manning is a traitor, and should face the prescribed punishment. As an expert marksman, I volunteer to be one of the people to assist in carrying out the sentence.

He did commit crimes. Crimes that were nowhere near what our country, our elected officials, and many of our soldiers have done and continue to do uncharged and unpunished. I feel it is pretty un-American to support things that go against our constitution that many people have actually HONORABLY died to protect. One of those is a long detention without trial. Who will be punished for that? No one!
