September 2008: Wikileaks leaks personal emails of Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin during the election campaign. US government does nothing.

As the joke goes: "You should have stopped me at the dinner roll."
The administration is doing it on purpose. I just smell Black helicopters
Stick
Wikileaks should be able to exercise their right to publish whatever they want, whether it turns out to be pure fiction or Top Secret classified documents. Having a free press and valid First Amendment rights is more important than the "temporary" (as in it won't matter 100 years from now) harm caused by the release of these documents. That said, I still think it was wrong and irresponsible of them to do so, and I hope they're sued into bankruptcy by any of our troops that wind up being harmed because of the release of all these leaks. I'd still like to find out who gave this classified information to Wikileaks and have them put behind bars. We've grown way too lax in our treatment of traitors. If it turns out that Wikileaks broke the law, then they should be put on trial as well.
Well said Alan, but which justice said to the effect, "The Constitution does not require us to commit suicide?" Assange should have been martyred for his cause long ago.
"Barack helicopters" whaaa?
I agree with Alan J's sentiments however just because you have the right to do something does not always mean that it is the right thing to do.
Nice pic of Sarah and of the Steyr-Aug 223.
I would give almost anything to burn some gunpowder and send some lead downrange with Sarah.
I would like to see our military paint wherever Assange is located with a laser for easy targeting by a smart-bomb.
If he is located in Sweden, it would get the message about how most of us feel toward people who give aid and comfort to our enemies.
Or to have the CIA make sure he turns up very dead in a public place for others to see.
Kind of like the Mossad's Wrath of God campaign against the Muslim perpetrators of the 1972 Munich Olympics slaughter of Jews.
