He'll be pardoned and/or given a villa and his own business in Key West, Savannah or the Castro District. He's about in as much danger of execution or long imprisonment as you and I are. He's an international cause célèbre and if Mr. Obama doesn't pardon him, Hillary or Mitt will.

From what I understand of it, a prisoner mite be required to sleep nude, but with 2-3 G.I. blankets so he wouldn’t get cold etc.

I do not see Manning being pardoned nor do I see him receiving the death penalty (pity). I do see him being convicted by Courts-Martial, being reduced to the lowest grade, a Dishonorable Discharge, loss of all pay and allowances, and a very long confinement. Because of the nature of the crimes his confinement will in effect be solitary confinement. He’d better get used to it now.

Far left liberal groups are just using him as a cause of the day. Once he reports to Leavenworth he no longer has any value to them and he will be ignored.
