Former President Barack Obama may have spared intelligence leaker Chelsea Manning more than a quarter-century of jail time, but the disgraced Army private sounds less than grateful.

In her first published column since Obama commuted her 35-year sentence, Manning slammed him as a weak leader with 'few permanent accomplishments,' calling on liberals to strike a more militant posture as Republican Donald Trump takes power in the White House.

'The one simple lesson to draw from President Obama’s legacy: do not start off with a compromise,' Manning wrote for The Guardian.

'They won’t meet you in the middle. Instead, what we need is an unapologetic progressive leader.'

In other words he wants a dictator like Stalin or Lenin,  maybe Mao.

Heck Pol Pot could probably get his wheels turnin.

Only in America can traitors who would otherwise be in Leavenworth get to publicly incite riots.

It is not possible to satisfy someone like this.

This psycho traitor should have been 6 feet under a long time ago....that it was even permitted to get past boot camp is another story and something that needs fixin'. 

I don't care how damned desperate we are for bodies during a war, the mentally ill should always be 4F and this one is a prime example of why.

More evidence of delusion.  "Start off with compromise" is hardly a realistic characterization of Obama's behavior during his first two years when he had a Democrat controlled Congress.  Is "Chelsea" ne Bradley upset that Obamacare wasn't a single-payer nationalization of the entire health insurance industry?

When is a Rat ever grateful for anything?  One would think he would be kissing the Zero's feet for giving him a "get out of jail free" card.  Amazing.

@Unlimited Here is the problem if S/Him would have stayed in prison we would have to pay for the add apussytome, now that it is a free whatever it has to come out of it's own pocket.

Apparently Manning isn't a fan of the single payer phase-in approach.

Which is why BRADLEY will end up dead in a gutter OD'd or beaten to death when his mental illness follows the course it usually does. Then the Tranny movement will have their saint/martyr. Not that we should pay for it to begin with. I'd say get him counseling but of course, thats likely why he is as he is to begin with. Some other basket case, but with a degree, told him to live his delusions.

There is that.  While I despise Obama, I was stunned that this nutter was whining.  Maybe that was the reason.  He won't get all of his operations paid by the taxpayer.

Yes, apparently the commutation plus his dishonorable discharge means the taxpayers don't have to pay for his operations.

Why is anyone giving this stupid little Muppet a soap box anyway?

Because he's a train wreck and train wrecks make the news?  Sick as it is.

Because some insufferable jerk let it out of jail.

Yeah and that's a mistake I wish could be changed ASAP.
