Just a truth seeker.If you tell the truth you have nothing to fear.
Something that will not suit the agenda of the corrupt.
Im not sure theres a debate here. I expect most on the left and the right to agree on this. Hes a traitor. What we may not agree on is his punishment. He should be put on trial for treason. If convicted he should suffer the ultimate consequences, he should be put to death. The POS who did this not only embarassed his country (as well as other countries), but shared US secrets, and put others in grave danger that could lead to death. In the future those contemplating leaking classified information should have his end in mind. I would fully expect other countrys would do the same to those committing treason.

Feel free to let us know your social security number oh mighty truth seeker.
I have nothing to hide so I have no fear.
It must be a hard life living a lie.
Traitor. His motivation was not for truth, but to f*ck over the US Army. Look into it.
i am not sure if traitor is the precise word that i would use. certainly a criminal and i hope he is prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
If you dont like the message then shoot the messenger.
Philosophically, pretty much every traitor has considered themselves a hero of sorts. But regardless of his motivation, even if he were on the side of the angels, he is by definition a traitor. Not only has he exposed his countrymen to danger and possible death, he has done so in violation of his oath as a soldier. This is no brave private citizen exercising first amendment rights. There is a reason that Dante consigned traitors to a deeper hell than murderers. He should be prosecuted, convicted, and executed.
BTW--even if (perhaps especially if) the US "regime" was every bit as evil and corrupt as some of our letsrun regulars seem to believe, Manning should expect that to be caught in such treason would result in execution. You sure as hell would expect that in China, et al. It is the absolute pinnacle of idiocy to believe that the USA is so evil as to justify treason, and then to expect us to be too noble to execute the traitor.
Traitor. Is this an honest question?
hero... americans your country has been totally subverted,
you have nothing to hide until your pink tutu dancing fetish is exposed.

Traitor, criminal. Should be prosecuted to fullest extent of UCMJ.
Traitor. His act is revenge for "Don't ask. Don't tell". One look at his photo and that bears witness.

If the truth f*cks over the US army, so be it
Traitors are judged by motive, not by actions. If the actions were motivated by hatred for this country and its military, then he is a traitor.

Pretty to think so, isn't it?
Criminal & Traitor. How proud (and scared) his family must be.
A moral compass combined with courage.
The powers that be will crush him
