A convicted felon can run for congress, but the house or senate can decide that they cannot serve if they win.

If he wins, I suppose he'll be the first person convicted under the Espionage Act to regain a security clearance.

I don't see what could go wrong there.

I am curious to see how much support...she...gets. With any luck she'll simply be ignored by all but sub-1% of the population, but I won't count on this.

It was only a matter of time. You ALMOST want to feel sorry for such a pathetic individual; impressionable, malleable, gullible...the perfect useful idiot for a deep pocketed ideologue looking to make waves.

Bradley Manning yearns for an incoming missile and oh my he hopes it's certainly not a false alarm.

Yes, his name is Bradley Manning, and he feels pretty.

I'm confused. First, I hear about Chelsea Handler, then I hear about Chelsea Manning. Or is it Chelsea Clinton? One thing's for certain: There are too many whackos named Chelsea running around.




You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

Wow, that's a real conundrum for the likes of CNN.

If they don't support him, they'll be, by their own standard, homophobic and transphobic. If they do, they'll be supporting a proven risk to national security.

If you put it that way, it is apparent where their priorities are.

I believe this person is not qualified for the position as they will need to be able to obtain a security clearance. Since this person has been put in the brig, I do not think this person qualifies. God Bless Smile

I've posted before that my daughter was in boot camp with Manning at Ft. Leonard Wood. She said he cried like a little girl every single day, and that every member of her platoon literally wanted to kill him by the end of boot camp.

Publicity or some other kind of stunt. Who knows what is going on in his fucked-up mind. He is no more likely to run, let alone win, than Oprah for president.
