Chelsea Manning vs. Hillary Clinton

Here is a case study in double standards:

A bit lengthy, but it spells out some details you may not have heard before.


Manning put nation before self.


Hillary put self before nation.


By the way, that's exactly what her so-called "husband" did when he dodged the Vietnam era draft.


Update: Here's another author's comparison of Chelsea and Hillary:


Chelsea Manning is an American heroine who knowingly exposed classified information for the purpose of revealing war crimes in Iraq and other government lawlessness, including Clinton’s orders to her State Department underlings to bug the offices of UN diplomats.


Hillary Clinton is a power-monger who carelessly exposed classified information because she believes she’s above the law. Like the late Richard Nixon, on whose impeachment papers she worked as a young congressional staffer, she believes that if  Hillary Clinton does it, it’s not illegal.
