| LINK "The man who taught President Obama constitutional law is now accusing him of violating it in his own administration. Laurence Tribe, who was one of Obama's professors at Harvard and served as a Justice Department legal adviser until last December, has signed onto a letter with over 250 other legal scholars assailing the Obama administration for its treatment of Bradley Manning, the soldier accused of divulging classified documents to Wikileaks. The letter, published in the New York Review of Books, asserts that Manning, 23, is being held "under degrading and inhumane conditions that are illegal and immoral." It also suggests that his treatment could be interpreted as torture." |

Manning should have been tried convicted and imprisoned a long time ago I don't see this liberal professor of Constitutional law protesting the Kenyans sitting in the Oval or his protest because Lt. Col. Lakin is sitting in jail after a Kangaroo trial where he was not allowed to present evidence. | |
