That is a fantastic article about Bradley Manning. I think that it is very important to bring up the point that those who MURDER hundreds of thousands of INNOCENT CIVILIANS are touted as strong leaders, while someone who points out the truth and the reality about these murders has been tortured (through solitary confinement for almost a year!), and has been in prison for more than a year and a half awaiting trial. It is truly sick that those people who kill children and women, and especially the leaders who order these actions and wars, are NEVER held accountable for these murders. It is unfortunate that more people are not talking about this case and the complete lack of justice!

It is absolutely atrocious that Obama was willing to sign the NDAA. It just goes to show that Obama's foreign policies and lack of protection for individual rights, are just as horrendous, if not WORSE, than Bush. It is pretty disgusting that so many liberals supported Obama, when his foreign policy and defense decisions are actually going to have such a negative impact on society and the world. The signing of the NDAA is a real tragedy and it is really sad that liberals will probably still vote for Obama in the upcoming elections.

Republicans prove themselves to be so completely idiotic about science and the environment, that they really should not be allowed to vote on climate change legislation because they clearly are incapable of sufficient thought processes to make them capable of understanding the simplest of facts on this topic. I can't believe why Republicans would be against trying to mitigate flood damage in Virginia, or why snow disproves global climate change. It is nuts that so many Senators are climate change deniers and that the house passed laws to actually WEAKEN environmental laws almost 200 times. This stuff is nuts and proves why we need to vote for legislators who at least have some minimal abilities to think rationally and understand some very simple scientific facts!
