23. the psychotic response of the Elites to the release
Their frantic circling of the wagons:

A Prime Minister that is outraged that she and other governments must now search furiously for some law, any law, she can charge Assange with breaking. (Question for ya: if an American possibly broke a *nonexistant* law in, say, Singapore, thereby "embarrassing" Singapore, would Obama direct Holder to find something, anything, with which to charge the American?

An attorney general who hints that since, after extensive research starting months ago -- with the prior release of the American Apache Helicopter murder of unarmed Afghan citizens -- they can't find a law to charge Assange with breaking, they'll invent or write one one.

The heads of the teabaggers plus a high level advisor from our northern neighbor, calling for Assange's assassination. And now, apparently, another teabagger nutcase calling for the assassination or kidnapping of Assange's estranged 20 year old son to "smoke him out."

A "neutral" country that asserts an Interpol alert against Assange for failure to perform coitus interruptus, in one instance, and failure to use a condom (oh, the woman involved knew there was no condom and isn't being charged) in the other. With both women acknowledging the sex was consensual, neither showing any distress *until* they met up days later and discovered he'd been a bit of a cad with them both.

The majority of the MSM melting down, when all Assange really did is what real journalists *used* to do. Fill the gaping hole once occupied by investigative journalists.

The release is disastrous and will cause deaths (unlike, say, our military) and is treason. The information released is just embarrassment and the contents are nothing (nothing criminal here, what that little coup in the Honduras? all a misunderstanding, move along now). All in the same breath...:rofl:

I so totally can't wait to see what the new year brings. BOA, anyone?
