Just a friendly Manning related reminder...

[Phox]

Ah. This just reminded me why I want to blow shit up.

[Bebek Sincap Ratatosk]

Mm.

Getting really ashamed for ever having voted for Barry.  I didn't really expect change, it was more a "please god not McCain" thing.

For me it came down to "HOLY CRAP, PALIN CAN'T BE THAT CLOSE TO THE PRESIDENCY"... in the end, I'm still OK with that decision.  

This.  Also, "if he's gone senile enough to pick THAT as his running mate, he's too senile to be President."

I think you both have your heads up your arses.

Palin couldn't be that much worse, and she'd be a hell of a lot funnier.

Obama's jokes were funnier when the other guy did them.

Optimist!

No, that was pure pessimism.

Think what you like (you will, with or without my permission, of this I am aware).  Bitch had the look in her eye that said, "we win this shit, it'll take me 48 hours to catch the geezer at the top of some stairs."

The humans have to be protected.

Anyway, we now have a regime that tortures our own soldiers. 

Yay!

Fairly sure it would have happened no matter who was at the helm. With McCain and Caribou Barbie it would have been more gung ho, I think, but that's probably the only difference.

Considering that they just fired a State Department geek for saying how stupid and counterproductive this is, and then considering Obama "spoke to the military, and they said it was okay" ("Hey, Hitler...Is that invasion of Poland legal?  Just asking."), I think I'd rather have the gung ho batshit insane approach.  This hyper-cynical bullshit isn't even funny.

Given McCain's experiences and his rather angry view of torture for terrorists, something tells me he would have been gung ho to go after Manning and Wikileaks, but might have gone for something other than torture.

Though, I suppose since he's "only" in solitary and naked, maybe that would be considered torture by McCain...

He changed his mind about that sort of thing in 2005.

The good thing about you electing the Smiler is that at least now it's crystal clear you get fucked both ways.

If McCain had won, a fuckload of semi intelligent people, and I suspect quite a few of our own would have still believed "we wouldn't be in as big of a mess if Obama had won".

Crushing those beliefs might just have been worth 4 years of slightly lower quality jokes.

I consider it it a great service on the part of Obama really.

I just hope that it doesn't demoralise a generation into thinking that nothing can change, so let's not even bother.

Yeah, much better to sleep and dream that our dreams will come true
