    See this is the thing, folks. You wanna slag off @xychelsea as a criminal, go right ahead. But you better have slagged off Establishment and right-wing favourite Betrayus as well, cos he didn't do the same as Manning, he did WORSE.

        How stupid you are Bernard. Patraeus was good soldier with decades of distinguished service in the US Army. One mistake should not diminish his service, and contribution he can make to Australia's national security. #auspol

        I'm not at all a Petraeus fan. Ultimately, your assertion is incorrect. He plead guilty to a misdemeanor. Manning plead guilty to 10 felony counts and was convicted of 21 others. One may indeed value *why* Manning took those actions. That's just a separate issue.

        Your comment does not disprove Bernard’s assertion, it just proves the justice system is multi-speed.

        Mr Keane asserted what Petraeus did was worse. That's a value judgment and clearly not aligned with the law. If we make policy that way it justifies people like Dutton judging in favor of Au Pairs and white farmers.

        I can only assume you thought both gents should be refused entry. Sounds good to me. Too late in one case but not the other.

        But he's a general Bernard, a GENERAL! Our little pack of authoritarian wannabes can't get on their knees fast enough to kiss a US general's ass.

        Two distinct differences: Exhibit A. @xychelsea is a heroic whistle blower who was endured sadistic torture. Exhibit Z. Petraeus is a shart stain.
