I am surprised that money has to be raised to find him a lawyer, certainly there must be at least one lawyer in the US with a conscience! As for the fact that they are brining in claim of him doing it because he is "GAY", that truly means they have nothing against him and only trying to make him look/sound less heroic. Any person, news reporter, judge that brings claims against him for his sexuality, is not looking at the facts. From what I have read, the US should not allow him to be locked up or stand trial. I have read the news reports and this article, and from what I can gather is that he leaked information to news agencies, therefore he did not leak info to the enemy. If the news reporters have leaked the info, they should stand trial to. I would like to hear the President of the US comment on PVT Manning's ordeal. More people should support PVT Manning.

I don't feel heroic, just gratified that I'm part of a big group of people doing something that desperately needs doing. I'm in Slovakia because I live living here. More information about that can be found, easily, by googling my name. I try not to mix my other politics with the work I do toward Bradley Manning's cause. Thank you, Bill.

Not the generals, not the president, but the Constitution and from where I sit, that means that law and order trump political agendas or special interests, but later on I also read that his motives were not that pure, but that his sexuality was the real motive and that cheapened his stand. That said, I'm also against him being jailed. He, if any thing, should be given a letter of reprimand. It's unbelievable to see some one in jail and our war criminals let go free. Something is definite rotten in today's America and cases like this one that reminds me that the slippery slope that America is embarked on is not where we should be heading. Democracy is best in the worst of times. Let's bring back the Constitution.
