There is a short video with Obama replying to a question on Manning. Doesn't his response prejudice a fair trial? Obama claims that what Manning did was against the law. Doesn''t this assume he is guiilty. What he says about Ellsberg is also incorrect I believe. The material he released was classified and in fact still is in spite of being all over the place. It was of more significance than anything Manning is alleged to have released.
