Taking the Man Out of Manning

Moonbattery ^

[Morgana]

There was precious little man in Bradley Manning to begin with. Now the treasonous pervert — who in any sane country would be promptly executed for leaking 750,000 pages of classified military documents out of pure spite — wants us to pay for his sex change as he waits out his gentle wrist slap of a sentence.

“I am Chelsea Manning.”

With those words, read from a statement on NBC’s “Today” on Thursday, Bradley Manning immediately shifted public conversation away from the Army private’s conviction on espionage charges to gender identity.

“As I transition into this next phase of my life, I want everyone to know the real me,” Manning said in the statement. “I am Chelsea Manning. I am a female. Given the way that I feel, and have felt since childhood, I want to begin hormone therapy as soon as possible. I hope that you will support me in this transition.”

DNA will always be male. Imagine what crime investigators will have to deal with when he gets assaulted or worse later down the road of life.

Agreed. Homosexuals and LBGTAQ (throw in another classification) have a number of traits that SHOULD disqualify them and historically could:
* Difficulty maintaining long term relationships, a key indicator of emotional maturity and stability
* A tendency toward one night stands (especially the males), which creates blackmailable opportunities and easier access for spies
* A tendency towards arrogance, so they are more likely to want to spy to prove they are better and smarter than coworkers.
* More likely to have a string of failed relationships that could be used to manipulate them
* Far more likely to see themselves as an aggrieved party, and thus give information to help others they think are of the same demographic. For example, a gay man will identify with a self-identified gay Chinese fellow and eagerly talk to him, both because he sees a common bond and possible sexual opportunity. More straight men would be suspicious at sexual opportunity out of the blue.

"Poster child for why homosexuals should not be allowed around us secrets and in most parts of the military."

Yep. That and the threat posed by homosexuals to the military blood supply is why they shouldn't be allowed in at all.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Don’t worry. Once his fellow inmates are near, there’ll be plenty of man in him.

Did he pick the name Chelsea, because his name will sound like, "Chelsea Morning," that song by Joni Mitchell. (Which a former and a future president supposedly named their daughter after).

If he changes shouldn't his last name become, "Womanning?"

When he gets out (should he serve his full sentence) he might look like this. Then maybe some near-sighted geriatric might get a thrill.
