So what if he disclosed information that potentially threatened American lives and security interests? Manning's a "frail guy who doesn't look threatening to anyone." So you have to question the length of his sentence.
Such was the bizarre logic that Chris Matthews employed as he bemoaned Bradley Mannings' sentence--which could in practice see him freed in less than 10 years. Matthews was also moved by the fact that in military prison, Manning will be surrounded by people "who won't like him."

‘Frail Guy Who Doesn’t Look Threatening To Anyone’
If Rush had said that, he would be accused of homophobia.
So, we are not supposed to judge Trayvon by only his outward appearances. But it is OK to judge Manning by his outward appearances.
I think I got it.
Perhaps we should put a ball cap on Trayvon and let him walk through a bored neighborhood in OKC.
Damn. Is that real or a puppet from Team America?
Ted Bundy looked kinda frail & non-threatening too
lol..Yes and commies are holding the strings.
It is utterly disgraceful. He should be at the end of a rope. What he did was FAR worse than what Jonathan Pollard did, and Pollard will die in prison.
And Margie Velma Barfield was a Grandmotherly Born Again Christian.
im sure bradley will find out the real meaning of his last name while in prison...
There are very few prisons where he would be popular.
Good Grief! This is lamebrained reasoning even for Matthews.
Exactly what I was thinking.
Damn! He could be Himmler’s grandson!
I had the same thought. From what I’ve heard the % of lesbians in the military, even before DADT and its removal, was substantially higher than in the general population. I don’t know if that’s as true in the officers’ corps as enlisted.
bump
What a horse’s ass! Same thing could have been said about Joseph Goebbels.
I am Chelsea Manning. I am female* OK, I added the last sentence....

As I transition into this next phase of my life, I want everyone to know the real me, Manning said in a statement read during an exclusive TODAY show interview with lawyer David Coombs. I am Chelsea Manning. I am a female. Given the way I have felt since childhood, I want to begin hormone therapy as soon as possible.
This is punishment? I'm going to be surrounding by strong, virle men! Please please put me in General Population!"*
Sorry, I meant to ping to the post above...
Actually he might be very popular.
Especially since now “he” is a “she”
