  • The leaked info was a service to the people and I support him doing it.   So I think Manning should be commuted for that.   However Manning using gender identity issue as an excuse doesn't sit well with me either. I think it's a cop-out.

  • I think it was great. There would not be a need for people like him if the State had nothing to hide.

    The info Manning was supposed to have released to whoever got others killed whether directly or indirectly so hes a Traitor to his Country and people and should serve full term so Obama  did what he did to only PO the American people even more as a departing gift and Obama should be shot by a firing squad for all his High Treason acts
