Just because you got your penis cut off does not make you a woman.

News for CHELSEA MANNING. No surgery is going to erase the fact that she will always be a he. It is in his DNA.

Good point. The army should send her to the Phoenix VA for the surgery.

The good news: we’re doing the surgery. The bad news: your hunger strike ends afterwards with a very small hot dog.

Maybe transfer him to the front lines in Afghanistan, where a Taliban bullet might perform the surgery at no expense to the US taxpayer. :)

“Gender surgery”

So they are operating on Manning’s pronouns?

When one contemplates the long list of victories of the United States military...this...occupies an unfortunate place.

So, if the Army agrees to cut off his penis, the spy in solitary promises to eat.

The world sure has changed. Every damned perversion I ever heard of is suddenly OK, but the only one I ever really wanted was for it to be acceptable for women to go topless at American beaches and pools. And of course, THATS the only thing that’s still a taboo.

The US Army caves to someone with a psychiatric disorder on a hunger strike.

Who are they going to cave to next — an enemy on the battlefield?
