Maybe this is what we have come to. America is afraid of cap guns, which no longer exist. Of bottle rockets and pocketknives and Islamo-Mahmuds curled beneath the bed. And America is afraid of children. Puzzled boys of eleven are led from school in handcuffs for possession of a water pistol. A cop who would do it ought to go into hiding from embarrassment, but nothing embarrases anyone any longer.

Kill Assange and let the chips fall where they may. He is an enemy of America. He should have been dealt with in July when this first happened but nothing was done because we're saddled with an embarrassingly wimpish putz in the White House.
Obama cannot disappear fast enough and by any means necessary.

"Kill Assange and let the chips fall where they may"

Say what you will of virtue, how many of us would walk through a ghetto area flashing $1,000 in greenbacks?

What kind of "secret" system enables a Pfc to download 250,000 "cables"? There is plenty of blame to go around.

Tim,
I am extremely grateful that a person with your brutish sensibilities does not share my political views. However, I am ashamed that we probably are the same species.

Why thank you for the compliment OldTiredLiberal. The last thing I want is approval from the rush to the bottom hate America crowd. Thanks again.

Warrington I don't disagree with your sentiments at all. Problem I have is when they realized the level of compromise happening to their communications they did very little to stop it. Assange should have been taken out months ago.

Tim-Obama will probably continue with his Jimmy Carter Redux act after the 2012 elections,when he turns out to be a one-termer and then becomes a speechmaker and book writer trying to convince the world he was the best thing since sliced bread.Sound familiar?
Assange is a chaoticist,probably what could be termed a techno-anarchist.His leaks may be killing people.Whacking him sounds like a plan.
I bet you just wait with baited breath for the approval of sorry ass leftists ;)).I think it's cool when they start sputtering and all.
I believe we will do nothing about Assange.
What I don't understand is how in hell this can be termed a 1st Amendment issue when it involves a foreign national operating abroad.????Such a thought could only emanate from a demented ACLU type brain.
Does Assange remind anyone of Bill Maher??

Are the same people who call for due process and rule of law clamoring for Assange to be -killed-?!

Even my friends in the State Department tell me that the leaks are a 'big, rude, pain in the rear', not a real security threat.

What did you folks think about Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers? I'll agree that the Wikileaks stuff isn't nearly as important for the public to know, but Assange's meddling isn't worth setting aside my values for.

Assanges ploy contains a trap within the trap. Anyone wishing to embarrass or exploit the U.S. could just kill Assange for that purpose. He could end up dead at the hands of people who share the same contempt for America as he does.

The evil genius didn't thing this one through.

I haven't really had time to examine the wikileaks, but have the general impression that they are more embarassment than harm. They also seem to be clearing George Bush on the WMD thing.

To the extent that they reveal what we "haven't been told", I may favor them. Why shouldn't we have a clearer understanding of Putin's personality? We are all familar with the inane and venal bhavior of politicans in the "small time", why should we harbor the belief that they are any better in the "big time"? After all, they don't become "statesmen" until they are dead. Don't you ever wonder about the thought process which gave Obama the "peace prize"?
