#2 The United States Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, will provide him with many years of gainful employment, wearing a bright orange jumpsuit and performing many varieties of useful activity, such as mowing grass, raking leaves, washing vehicles, and pulling weeds.

Until he is a very old man.

#3 what bothers me is that it took someone exposing him. MI couldn't find him on their own.

#4 The question is whether he should be charged and tried under the UCMJ or existing laws covering this kind of behavior in a civilian court. I'd prefer that it would be a civilian court cause if he were to be found guilty he'd go into the general population of a fed prison rather than the USDB. Regardless of what opinion we may have of some of our population behind the bars, there are, shall we say, people who take this sort of stuff dead seriously. On the other hand, we need to ascertain where the leak occurred because that will determine who should have jurisdiction. If it occurred out of any continental jurisdiction then the military better handle it. If the action occurred within the boundaries of US territory or possessions, then the civies can have him for as long as they can keep him alive.

#8 Read all the comments applauding what he did. And consider that the NYT isn't alone in their attitude to the US.
