I guess being a freak does get people’s attention, esp. when it is PBO giving a pardon to the idiot Manning who is getting free sex change medical care.

If it doesn't have anything to do with flaming faggotry, anti-white racism, doing refer and cocaine, helping muslim terrorists,
or sticking the shaft to America Barack Obama isn't really interested.

Interesting that Julian Assange said he would agree to extradition if the pardon was granted.

I think we need a constitutional amendment limiting the president’s ability to commute sentences and issue pardons to the first three years of his first term. This would make him answerable to the public for the choices he makes.

Blago and Rezko might still talk. Even though some statute(s) of limits might have run out.

I would expect to see them pardoned. Well, we will know in about 72 hours.....

Well, that ******* in the White House finally brought tears to my eyes. The security breaches by Hillary were bad enough, but Manning put our entire Military AND our Diplomatic Corps at risk. I hope this traitor AND the person who commuted his sentence come to a VERY BAD END.

Idiot's on CNN are all tangled up in the downing down of Deviancy. Keep referring to Chelsea Clinton as He/She/Him/Her. Lol. It's a Male, and Always will be.
The also keep posting a Creepy picture of Andy Warhol in a Wig!!

On a side note. Lets see how long before Trump Tweets. His Republican Senators are speaking up pretty loudly. Maybe. Maybe the Trump way of fighting is catching on. Let them carry the ball once in a while. However. Never on a 4th and 1. That's always the Donald's ball to carry.

A charge is not necessary for a Pardon. Read the Heritage Foundation monograph on the subject.

i don’t believe the Army has to pay for his lopadickoffmy.
and I figured that would be part of the deal, taxpayers still have to pay.

Of course, this isn’t a pardon, the conviction is still on the record, Manning just won’t be incarcerated anymore.

Just myself but I don’t have a problem with what Manning did.

If the US military and the US government had not been committing crimes and doing things that they were ashamed of then there would have been nothing to leak.

Same thing with the DNC emails, the Podesta emails, and the Clinton emails.

It’s amazing how this works: If you don’t do anything wrong you won’t get caught!

I also think the US Government needs an independent whistleblower agency that can safely receive information from government types and then act to resolve the problems.

Because the bigger issue here is that when the government commits a crime who do you report it to?

"Obama’s legacy"

One person's reply at the link said: "The only way Obama will have a legacy is if he goes to the subaru dealer."

Manning's lawyer is named Chase Strangio. Swear to God.

So does this mean the government doesn't have to pay for its sex change operation?
