WASHINGTON — President Obama on Tuesday largely commuted the remaining prison sentence of Chelsea Manning, the army intelligence analyst convicted of an enormous 2010 leak that revealed American military and diplomatic activities across the world, disrupted the administration, and made WikiLeaks, the recipient of those disclosures, famous.
The decision by Mr. Obama rescued Ms. Manning, who twice tried to commit suicide last year, from an uncertain future as a transgender woman incarcerated at the male military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan. She has been jailed for nearly seven years, and her 35-year sentence was by far the longest punishment ever imposed in the United States for a leak conviction.
Now, under the terms of Mr. Obama’s commutation announced by the White House on Tuesday, Ms. Manning is set to be freed on May 17 of this year, rather than in 2045.
Ones committing treason against the US are now heroes. Manning should have been put to death. Now he has to pardon / commute all others that so - called committed such crimes and were punished. Hillary, Bill and Chelsea have not been convicted as of now so they cannot be pardon / commuted by Obama, the Muslim.
So if Manning is commuted, then Assange should be commuted also. Which would mean what WikiLeaks revealed (the truth of the wrongdoings and cover-ups the Dems were doing behind closed doors) is excusable. So what are the libs upset about if they still support Obama? They got caught and are embarrassed! That's why they are upset!
HEY.... HERES A THOUGHT.......This person will now be ineligible to have a sex change from the government. If this person is discharged dishonorably the government is not responsible to foot the bill for sex change. And no further expensive hormone therapy unless this person pays for it. So..who is paying the price here?
A traitor... High Treason. Six years incarcerated. Imagine if you had a loved one in Intelligence or Diplomatic Service whose life was compromised by this coward. How did this country ever get so screwed up?
Bravo, it's the right thing to do.

ReplyDeleteBad move, but then Obama has done more to damage US intelligence than even Manning.

ReplyDeleteObama is a NUT who has lost his mind !!!
No Pardons or commuted sentences should be allowed by
ReplyDeleteAnyone in power when there is Found Guilty sentence,
and No question of Guilt !!!
Death sentence should be carried out Or there is NO Justice !!!!!!
By allowing this , this lets Governors and Presidents Go
against what a JUDGE has decided , against Justice Dept !!
Presidents and Governors ARE NOT DICTATORS , too much power
Why go to court ??? Just have the case heard by the
ReplyDeleteGovernor or the President then ........
Why have a Jury ???
AGREE !!
