Dear Editor,
I applaud you Mr Smith, your viewpoint on Bradley Manning is right on target from my point of view as well. 
He broke a pledge he made to the armed services and this nation. 
If convicted, he is a traitor and should be treated as such. 
The bleeding hearts out there need to wake up and realize that this is a perfect example of what is wrong with our country right now.
Not many are truely held accountable for their wrong doings. 
In Congress, our leaders, look how many have ignored their oath and suffered very little, if any, concequences. The more publicity favored to a situation, the more protesers come out of the closet.  
What he did was wrong, no other way to put it.  
He broke his oath. What is to protest ? 
Anyway, I just wanted to let you know I for one agree with your article and actually think perhaps the facility at Fort Levenworth is not harsh enough.
Larry W. Meeks,
