The bipartisan consensus following WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's arrest Thursday morning was that justice is finally being served. Few, if any, politicians defended Assange or suggested that it might be wrong to prosecute him.
I have very mixed opinions on Assange. I think he did a great service revealing some secrets. Am I confident that his motivations were the best, nah, not so much. I think the jury's still out and this will do little to really explain any of it.
