http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_130/1267219_Think_Bradley_Manning_is_a_hero_and_a_patriot___Ron_Paul_does_.html&page=1 So, does he still have your support? |

Manning should be stood up at a wall and shot 'til killed dead.

Manning should be stood up at a wall and shot 'til killed dead. And Ron Paul does not deserve to be dogcatcher after calling him a hero. |

Quoted:
what and asshole Yup. Let every Ronbot you know know about this. You'll notice they will stay away from this thread and bump others hoping this fades off the front page so the gullible don't see it. |

I gave up on the presidential election a long time ago. Better to just give up on this one and start getting ready for 2016. We just fucking ran out of time, I guess. It's hard to tell what happened. I guess I always thought that a quality candidate would jump into the field. It never happened.

Oh, yeah. That poll is objective and will produce meaningful results.

Quoted:
Oh, yeah. That poll is objective and will produce meaningful results. So you support a traitor and think he's a hero as Paul does? |

I don't support the actions of Bradley Manning either. I was simply pointing out the obvious, there, bud. You're being a little ridiculous now. Like a parody of yourself. |

His foreign policy and anti-military stance shows that. |

To be honest if I knew that the conservative supreme court justices could hold on for four more years I'd rather have Obama in then Romney or Newt, at least all laws would be deadlocked. Both Newt and Romney give the conservative/republican a bad name. Why do the Democrats ALWAYS get the most liberal mother fuckers in but we can't get someone who even leans center right? |

And Ron Paul continues to amaze me... in a bad way. He's the gift that keeps on giving. |

Quoted:
Well, how would you have succinctly worded the poll? Did he call a traitor a hero and true patriot? Yes he did. I would have worded it, "Do you still support Ron Paul in light of his recent statements concerning Bradley Manning?" |

I cannot believe Paulnuts are still voting for a guy that supports treason. Even the Obama administration is allowing his trial to go forward.
What is wrong with some of you people? |

Although perhaps the answer is that the Republican Party has on the aggregate become centre-right at best. I found it interesting that Irving Kristol stated that the goal of his political movement was to convert the Republican Party and Conservative Movement against their collective wills to be, in essence, progressive and that his political movement (neoconservatism, a name chosen apparently to take advantage of conservatives) seems to be predominant among the party leadership. It is essentialy a temperamentally conservative progressive movement and belongs on the Left side of the political spectrum. |

I still support Ron Paul.
Manning isn't exactly my idea of a hero, but some of the activities that were exposed in his leaked information weren't exactly honest or proper, either (assuming the info was true). |

Ron Paul is aware of this yet he calls him a hero and true patriot? That's okay with you? Please cite what good things he leaked. |

Paul has made yet another bad decision here...
Manning has balls in doing what he did. That said, he released information, during time of war, that seriously compromises aspects of US national security. He's a traitor, albeit a brave one. Bravery does not make his actions right or legal though. It actually kinda makes it worse, IMO. He managed to muster up the cojones to sell out his brothers and sisters in uniform. There is no lower pit of hell than for traitors. As a buddy of mine said when asked about him, "He can push ex-Maj. Hassan's wheelchair when they both go to the gallows, for all I care." |

Out of curiosity, how can Manning be a traitor if he isn't even an American?
Anyways, he's not a hero and Ron Paul is a jackass for calling him one. |

I disagree strongly. However I still believe Ron Paul is one of the few politicians out there that isn't interested in raiding my pocket book or interfering with my life. Say what you want about the man but I don't think are many politicians today that hold true to those ideals.

Looking the other way when Iraqi soldiers and policemen allegedly tortured, raped and killed people? I'm not a Manning fan and have no problem with our .gov "throwing the book" at him, so to speak. But the information he leaked suggests that this same book needs to be thrown at some other people, too. |

Right, radical Muslims wouldn't hate us if it wasn't for our wars in the middle east.

If that's in fact his rationale (because it's a shitty excuse for a "reason"), then my initial statement is a grossly inaccurate assessment. Assuming you're right about the why, that removes any possible quality to Manning as a person. Betrayal is bad enough––but if it's done for honestly held reasons, I can credit the traitor for at least standing tall in his beliefs. Now, if the reason is something petty and spiteful, well, then that removes even the small, unalloying bit of credit the person may have received. |

Even if they had, they were openly supporting a rebellion to a nation they no longer felt loyal to. If that's the comparison you are basically giving a pass to someone that has called a traitor to the same country he wants to be president of a hero. |
