yeah, but mostly we just put them in jail

I don't think Manning even had access to top secret docs.  Just classified stuff

Petraeus on the other had gave top secret docs to his mistress and I don't recall him being executed or even spending any time in jail

Fuck Petraeus also

No pardon for Hillary.  I am actually surprised.

Obama didn't pardon him.  He commuted his sentence

you're absolutely right......my bad.....but I still would not have commuted his (her) sentence......but I do think it was harsh....spies don't get that much time

It was a fucking 35 year sentence and it still didn't go far enough. He gets out in May. Quit splitting hairs, it was a commute.

yes it was a commute, but 35 years is way too long...even foreign spies don't get that long in jail

Don't think he should have pardoned him (her).....He (she) committed a flagrant act of espionage and handed over secret information to WikiLeaks...The sentence may have been overly harsh in the first place but I think it sets a bad precedent.....

I agree this was disgraceful.
