The seemingly endless saga of convicted traitor Chelsea Manning (formerly Bradley) is moving into its next phase. After serving only a handful of the 35 years he was supposed to do for espionage, he had his sentence somewhat infamously commuted by Barack Obama and will be getting out of the slammer next week. In advance of his freedom, Manning is already busy putting out press releases and the first isn’t particularly newsworthy. (Associated Press)

Chelsea Manning, who is scheduled to be released from prison next week, thanked former President Barack Obama, who granted her clemency in the final days of his presidency. She also said letters of support from fellow transgender individuals and veterans inspired her “to work toward making life better for others.”

“For the first time, I can see a future for myself as Chelsea,” she said in the statement. “I can imagine surviving and living as the person who I am and can finally be in the outside world. Freedom used to be something that I dreamed of but never allowed myself to fully imagine.”(continue)

I can’t believe anyone gives a rats behind. Well except Madcow. I’m sure she’s giddy as all get out. Maybe some news show with any self respect interviewing it will have tallied how many died when their names were leaked.

I expect to find Manning under the table Lewinskying Obama (on crack) at Barack’s book signing tour.

Code Pink traitors are actively cheering this. They DO side with the enemy.

I haven’t heard that name in a year or two. It’s nice to forget the once in awhile.

They were silent for 8 years while Obama called drone strikes and kept Gitmo open.

Stinky Commies, all of them.

I disagree. The proper pronoun in this case would be “it.” The sentence should read “When it is released from prison.”

As Chris Plante would sing using the melody of Joni Mitchell’s “ Cheleas Morning “ : “ Woke up it was Chelsea Manning , and he was kneeling at my cell “ lol ...Original lyrics were “ Woke up it was Chelsea morning and the first thing that I heard ...”

I was going to say the same thing. He is a he. Don’t call someone Napoleon just because they insist that they are. You don’t have to be part of the asylum.

Would we be wrong to suspect that you don't share his long familiarity with the Disciplinary Barracks?

If there is anything the liberal media loves more than a traitor, it’s a gender confused traitor.
