Bradley Manning was Flik, the ant who forgot his place, and Obama was Hopper, the grasshopper who couldn’t tolerate this, “You let one ant stand up to us, then they all might stand up! Those puny little ants outnumber us a hundred to one and if they ever figure that out there goes our way of life! It’s not about food, it’s about keeping those ants in line.” It’s not high art but it does make a point.
