A great comment from someone who sums up 'Assangegate'

Melancholiac, you used the precise formulation that arose in my mind as I watched this. How heartening to hear the sober, measured voice of reason regarding this matter. And from a politician, no less! Whether it will cut through the shrill cacophony of hysteria is doubtful. Whether it will still the hand of the prosecutors is more doubtful. They do not intend to use the processes of the law to arrive at a just outcome but to inflict that process as a punishment in itself.

If America does not wish to provide a noxious precedent for all repressive regimes to cite it should just step back and take a deep breath. Nothing really bad has happened. The wind is blowing in from the south bringing the sweet smell of wildflowers and forests. Somewhere a bird calls and two dogs answer each others barks across the valley. Supper is on the table and there are people here who love you. It's OK.
