While I do appreciate the free press arguments for not persecuting Assange (for now), contorting ones intellect to acquiesce to his potential sexual transgressions (with no facts or evidence) is dishonest and undermines libertarian ideals.

Here is the “brilliant” S E Cupp on Julian Assange:

Well, I fail to find any brilliance in this. Nor do I find any brilliance in her assertions on the vast damage done by Wikileaks (other than embarrassment).

Conservative as a political definition only means that the individual is member of the right wing of the American Communist party, vs Liberal as a definition of the left wing of the same party. Neither of which are concerned with the Bill of Rights or the principals it stands for; nor, are they concerned with the ridiculous notion of truth and honesty. Remember it was the Republicans that penned the name “Civil war on the back of the “war of secession.”

Ilana, I saw that specific show, but couldn’t understand JEDEDIAH’s reason for being there with Asman. On the other hand, S.E.CUPP is ABSOLUTELY a great piece of EYE CANDY and, sometimes, makes some reasonable comments. Ilana, I have a request: PLEASE consider getting on these FOX NEWS SHOWS. I would pay to see you intellectually destroy NANCY SKINNER as well as some of the other dim bulbs Fox apparently must have to be “fair and balanced” to appease the FCC. C’mon, do us readers a big favor, ok? Thank you & HAPPY NEW YEAR – 2011.

Even worse is that it is an ex post facto allegation. If a woman had a conditional agreement to have sex in manner A and the person (Assange or whomever) instead did it in manner B against the consent of the woman, that might arguably be rape – however, to make the allegation a considerable amount of time after the sex (when “lack of consent” cannot propagate backwards in time) is ludicrous.

I seriously doubt that these Republican bobbleheads have any concept of national security or secrecy or the responsibility of the government to protect its own information properly.
