Opinion of Wikileaks

Reckless, but on balance, FF.

It's sad that the most negative votes are from Democrats - the same party that got all pissed off about Bush's patriot act, torture, etc.

Manning and Wikileaks looks really bad compared to Snowden and the Guardian - the latter culled away sensitive information, whereas Assange just recklessly dumped everything he had.

But both of the leaks desperately needed to be heard.  Government in the United States is supposed to be by, for, and of the people, and while we don't need to know the names of our CIA agents or our Army's battle strategies, we must be aware of our government's policies and procedures in order to direct it.
