Straight outta the Karl Rove playbook. Don't play defense, attack attack attack.
Wow, I'm pretty bummed you'd assume that about my political leanings.
You can be as bummed as you want.
I don't see where you have posted a source for your claim that's more reliable than a Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, or one of Glenn Beck's equally unreliable compatriots at Fox News.
ONLY thing linked NY Times article and aaronbrethorst claim share is founders name.
This NYT story speaks for the overpowering importance of Assange's actions in regards to the war. He might be a shady character, a dictatorial wikileaks leader, or even a rapist but leaking the documents he did leak will undoubtedly be the most important action of his life. You might disagree with the actions of this man but debating over his personal life or the way he manages wikileaks is moot. The important fact here is: he may well have changed the course of a couple of wars and the course of America's relationship with its military. That's what we and the NYT should be talking about.
His ego shines through in all interviews. Even through his choice of his last name, you can see dude read too much Bond novels.
Another Karl Rove student with no link to any evidence whatsoever that make those claims anything but meritless rants
