When you support traitors and murderers, you are ruled by them.

Mumia was convicted of murder - a State beef.

from Article II Section 2: “The President ... shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment.”

I have mixed feelings on these “whistleblowers” who leaked classified info. On the one hand I’m happy to have seen some of the info released, some of this stuff perhaps that the American people have a right to know about. On the other hand it may have put our military at risk. Maybe I just like knowing state secrets.

Obama has been hostile to whistleblowers, I doubt he would have commuted Bradley Manning’s sentence if Manning was not a tranny and thus a cause celebre.

I hope at least this means that taxpayers no longer have to pay for his hormone treatments.

It probably would have been best for all parties if Bradley had not been prevented from taking his own life in prison, as he attempted to do twice I believe.

Chelsea requested commutation rather than pardon, because s/he acknowledged having committed the crime. At least s/he did not run off to Russia with the secrets like Snowden.

Barack Hussein Obama - Lifelong Traitor, Turnocoat and forever America & American hater!!! Ditto for the Democrat Party, the Congressional Black Caucus & the NAACP!!!

Go Donald J. Trump (Free African-Americans from the grip of these users & abusers of American Blacks on so many, multiple fronts of corruption)...Make America Great Again!!!

A piece down the road of life...this human scum & vermin will have their final encounters with God Almighty, and they will receive their just sentance & due for all eternity!!! Shame on any American that ever voted for these would be destroyers of the great American Republic!!!

Obama has benefited white sexual deviants much more than any blacks; this is just par for the course (and explains why many blacks didn’t support Hillary when she said she’d continue Obama’s programs).

I think Assange said he would come to U.S. if U.S. pardoned Manning

Why? Does he need to have his package removed?

I didn’t think I really needed a tag!

The era of Obama has left me unable to tell when people are being sarcastic. Nowadays, too much nonsense passes as dearly held beliefs, about which they are quite serious.

My sarc meter is broken, as is my irony meter. Sorry about that.

“Obama has been hostile to whistleblowers, I doubt he would have commuted Bradley Manning’s sentence if Manning was not a tranny and thus a cause celebre.”

Hans Landa again: “That’s a bingo!”

If Manning had gone public with Obama’s real birth certificate and his college transcripts you’d think him a hero even though it would still be the same criminal offense.

All I see here is that he revealed criminal offenses that we’d never know of had they been kept secret via the abuse of the classification system.
