I don't think just anyone can get ahold of classified documents under that act.

I understand that Assange does not like America and he's had a goal of taking this country down. Maybe there's a little hype in that, but he didn't do it because he was bored.

Are you implying that Wikileaks is applauded by Republicans while it has Dems frightened?
I wouldn't imply that because it's simply not the case. There are a lot of Republicans furious about Wikileaks. I'm not thoroughly happy about all the information that has been released, but it is still a nice reminder to our leaders that they aren't unaccountable, and they haven't been given carte blanche to do as they please behind closed doors (and in classified communications).

More to the point: I don't believe Assange should be prosecuted.

Re: Heroic Stance by Ron Paul on Wikileaks

I think the biggest embarrassment is how a PFC get access to those documents. Their security wasn't very secure.

The birth certificate and college records are secure. (for 1 or 2 people) The rest, not so much.

Re: Heroic Stance by Ron Paul on Wikileaks

It does make you wonder if this information was intentionally allowed to be leaked.

It also makes me wonder has any information like this been leaked under another president?
