We are now covering anonymous posters at other web sites? This is how low the Left has sunk. They so desperately want to prove the conservatives are violent, that they need to dig up obscure posts by nobodies. Meanwhile, even hint that the man with the bomb might be a Muslim, and they go ballistic. Have you ever seen such a blatant double standard and unwillingness to face facts?

‘”Under the traditional rules of engagement he is thus subject to summary execution and my preferred course of action would for Assange to find a small caliber round in the back of his head. ”

That’s red white and blue Gawd fearing American right there!

Really ? Sigh.

These people are enemies of themselves and humanity.

But what did John Mark Carr say about this?

What next, an editorial on one of Gordon Blower’s You Tube videos or Notsofast’s hairdo?

Personally I’m all for the leaks. What kind of patriot would want their government sneaking around behind their back? Our government is too secretive as it is.

Typical GOP cowardly mindset. God forbid those fools learn anything of truth or substance. No wonder the nation is rocketing downwards to its own destruction.

“Determining that Assange is–in the author’s words–a “foreign national involved in illegally obtaining classified information that is vital to America’s national security and distributing it to our foreign enemies,” he is therefore a “spy who has been caught spying.”

This isn’t hurting national security. This is simply showing the war (s) for exactly what they are BULLSHIT, it is also exposing our leaders and the back ally deals they are making with other countries. I can understand why alot of Americans are pissed, these papers are making the US as a whole look very foolish. Can’t wait until the Bank of America documents are released, should be interesting to see what happens when people find out they were ripped off by rich corp execs…

What is supposed to mean?

An anonymous poster at a right wing web site is responsible for “the nation rocketing downwards to its own destruction?”

Are you high?

Righties love back ally deals. If they can have their way they’ll one day be able to consign women who have been raped by their uncles to having back alley abortions (like the “good ol days” that they want to “take their country back” to) …you know… because life is sacred …unless that life happens to belong to a Muslim, a minority or a liberal.

If it takes a couple of leaks to start making our diplomats behaving more diplomatically, then maybe this will be a good thing.

We have lots of anonymous liberal cowards posting here. I think they are all patients at the same hospital.

This is a rusty saw that cuts both ways.

I’m not justifying what this guy said by any means – I don’t endorse anyone getting a bullet in the head, even scumbags like Assange – but if you want to see some REALLY vile comments go over to the Huffington Post or Kos or Salon and check out the commenters there when any conservative figure – especially Palin – is headlined.

As far as Assange goes – he’s a pissant who thinks he’s some kind of hero. When all this is said and done, he’ll be history and the mean ol’ world will keep right on turning.

Dust in the wind, baby.

You are aware we have a Democratic Administration now, right? Hilliary Clinton is running the show now oversees, not Darth Vader and Rumsy.

I may not agree with “Red State” on the harsh end to Mr. Assange, but let’s face he has stated in his own words that he loves doing this. Imagine one person wielding this much power … he is more powerful that all western countries combined and more hated than bin Laden, yet the SOB remains free …

This could very well mark the start of our demise … wait and see how this impacts us around the world.

Yes, all countries do this sort of nasty diplomatic stuff. We all know that, but it’s not confirmed by the realease of classified materials like this, either. This is very very serious shit, folks.

Just my 2 cents worth.

~ Dan Francis (Watertown, NY)

If Mediaite is now in the business of writing entire articles about blog posters who wish death on America’s enemies…may I suggest that Mediaite visit Huffington Post, DailKos and Democratic Underground where the posters wish death on America’s leaders 24/7/365.

honey, you need to use spellcheck.

this moron is a traitor and does deserve to be hanged. end of story.

The documents are supposed to be secret. Although a lot of the content undoubtedly could be made public without doing damage to America, it is still against our laws to steal them and to transmit them to enemies of America. Assange is not a citizen of the US, so his acts are not treasonous; they can be construed as an ‘act of war’ against the US, which is the way I see it.

Any American involved, or any American ‘newsoutlet’ that is involved in distributing the information, is involved in treasonous acts, and should be charged immediately and brought to trial quickly. First we protect our country, then we show concern for other countries. Any other behavior on our part is stupid.

Lexington_concord is overdosing.
Confiscate his radio, TV and find him copy of the NY Times.

Political newshogs are becoming so tiresome.
Every new “outrage” beckons for a call “to resign, be fired or die.”

We are observing the insanity of the “lowest common denominator” in our society.
Be rational.

RedState is pure sleaze. After I posted around 75 blog posts there (not just comments, but 75 blog posts), they banned me, were never able to give me a logical explanation, and to top it all off they kept my copyrighted content on their site:

http://24ahead.com/n/4786

The poster with such a violent mind should be consulting the psychiatrists and be banned from owning guns because of expression of rage and violence.

Ms. Busis, I know what I mean by “urban”. What do you mean by “urban”? And what word are you trying to put into someone’s mouth with that line of your article?

I must say, this does appear to be a first here at Mediaite, headlining an anonymous remark from another blog. Should do wonders to quell comments on all kinds of sites for fear of being quoted on a nationally read website like this.

Nice going.

You mean Assange right?

Whoever said Mark Joyella was a hack was spot on and some.

The PFC who gave the cables to WikiLeaks is going to spend the rest of his life in prison. So what is the proper penalty for Assange, for making the cables public?

Ever since the Pentagon Papers, the New York Times has been the preferred outlet for malcontents who want to distribute classified materials. The Times should be pissed because now it only gets the hand-me-downs. Or maybe the leakers don’t like the Times’ methods of selecting what gets publicized and what does not… because some of these leaked cables make the US and Israel look like the good guys.

Assange is amazing. I wish i could cause this much political disruption… he’s put the world into an uproar. SUPER TROLL!

J Baustian, Australia where is is from has a “no secret” clause for it’s governing bodies. He is being true to his Australian heritage which promotes true patriotism to be secret-less governing bodies.

Not to mention the puddles of urine they stand in whilst pointing fingers.

C’mon guys, if this were a guy who was only outing Bush era “diplomacy”, do you think Hillary would be upset? Likewise, if the leak were only of Obama era stuff, would the Republicans be upset? Since I am of the “a pox upon all their houses” variety, I say lets hear it all! I read a lot of posts on Mediaite that are at least as strident, from all parts of the political spectrum. As for this particular poster, my bet would be that his or her only exposure to the use of lethal force is as part of a movie or video game and not as a participant. In general, people who have “been there, done that” are more circumspect in expressing their feelings.

Clearly, that new crack staff is making it possible for Mediaite to cover the really BIG stories.

Bad Wolf says:

What about a deceitful, unprincipled and unqualified who says things that are so insane they make Michelle Bachmann’s nuttier statements sound rational? Someone whose smear campaign was so outrageous that it was considered horrific by many and anti-Semitic by some? Someone whose vitriolic rhetoric has already inspired gunmen to go after cops (successfully) and foundation employees (unsuccessfully)?

Should that person purposely misinforming millions be fired? Many of us think so.

I take it you are attacking Obama since he’s big on deploying unmanned drones. What’s the matter, ititiiti? Are you gonna cry for us? Just another old white conservative guy crying like a baby. Boo Hoo Hoo!!!!

Since when are you posting what other people say on other sites ?… That is so wrong on so many levels… And picking this topic ?… Who’s idea was that ?… Now while it’s true there are a lot of whackos out there, you guys could find plenty of them right on your own site, why don’t you comment on some of the posters here ?… I’ve seen people post way worse things then that, on this site, and none of you ever says a word… All we ever get from you guys is stuff like I saw Tommy post a couple days ago… Commenting on someones pile of chit post, he could’nt decide if it was really stupid or genius… Well, the chit post was genius, Tommy’s post was stupid…

And… This post was stupid too… I mean, why no post about the net neutriality story ?… Or any number of things that would have been way more pertinent than this crap someone posts on another site…

As far as Assange, he is providing a new source for Americans to get the truth about our government, the truth about our unwinnable war in Afghanistan, about our war crimes in Iraq and our illegal spying in the U.N. Watch for Time to name him man of the year.

Fact: Nobody had a problem with Wikileaks when they uncovered “climategate”
