Ron Paul: Wikileaks Leaker Manning Is a 'Hero'

Well.

So Ron Paul is picking up steam in Iowa. May even be a frontrunner.

And here he is (beginning at 4:06 in the video) saying of Bradley Manning, the U.S. soldier who leaked thousands of pages of classified U.S. government documents to Wikileaks, that Manning is a "true patriot" and a "political hero."

I kid you not.

Here’s the link to the video. Wait 'til Newt, Mitt, Rick, Rick, Michele, and Jon hear about this.

His dementia racked brain has spouted enough BS to get him officially committed.

So by your’s and Paul’s definition Benedict Arnold was really an America hero, I mean the plans for West Point should have been available to anyone, right?

As a retired veteran who not long worked in the intelligence community - I find this particularly offensive.

That makes two of us; every word is the same for me.

Representative Paul has only one thing useful about him, re: the Feds. His current office is perfect, any other ambition is way over his heads.

As for his one-issue supporters, if you want to be viewed as too simple to understand a complex system, suit yourselves.

Read it again...

I think you missed the 'irony' of his post..

“hero” when he should say “blithering idiot.”

I think Ron Paul is a hero.

Manning’s treachery has likely already cost the lives of intelligence operatives we recruited, as well as compromised the cover of our agents in the field. He also endangered people who were working confidentially for us to shape the culture and the political environment in ways favorable to our national interests and the advancement of democratic ideals.

Beyond that, a true hero acts for selfless and honorable reasons. Manning is a gender-confused train wreck of an utterly insignificant invertebrate who sought his fifteen minutes of fame by committing treason against the country he swore an oath to defend. He deserves a long drop and a sudden stop. The only ‘benefit’ in this whole affair will be realized when there is a complete revamping of security procedures so that toads like him will never again have such access to classified information or that need-to-know is once again enforced among those with security clearances.

The Honorable Congressman can’t differentiate between a traitor and a hero and deserves the political exile he is earning for himself. The fact that he, like a broken clock, is correct twice a day does not alter the fact that he is a leaping, screaming loon who should never be allowed access to the levers and switches of political executive power.

He is not, nor should anyone here delude themselves in believing that Paul is the defender of the Constitution and our natural rights that we all seek.

It’s like they’re afraid of him. Very scary.

They are afraid of him. They're all scared that the crazy old coot will run an an independent and hand the election to obama.

Well obviously a lot of Ron Paul’s support is based on his respect for the constitution. Is there another, more viable candidate, who has equal respect for the constitution? If so, let him/her come forward.

This isn’t going away.

Here is a copy of the video from Wikileaks.org.

Interesting that the anarchists are pushing Ron Paul.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soF2uIe8GPk

One vid vid poster called for all liberals to register Repub and vote for Paul.

Any doubt that if Paul is finally sent to the dust bin of history that these brainless idiots will vote for OBAMA.
