2. Diplomacy is nothing more than systematized lying. Lying is always a bad thing.
The truth will set us free.

8. Absolutism is rarely a good thing.
You're telling me that you always tell your friends, family, neighbors, bosses, etc. the complete and unvarnished truth? I call bullshit on that.

3. Eh, the stuff Wikileaks released is things we pretty much guessed about already.
Assange has a bit of an ego. The govt. is mostly overly freaking out. Really, I don't get the interest in this at all. Are any of the leaks really that shocking to anyone?

4. Maybe it's not about any specific leak
It could be that the sheer volume of information being leaked is the real story. There are actual people behind these leaks. And the more they leak, the more emboldened others will be to do the same.

Wait until the vatican leaks happen.

5. "Wait until the vatican leaks happen."
I would absolutely love that. A Mormon leak would great as well. I wonder what a Scientology leak would look like? Drool...

7. There already was a Mormon leak on the old Wikileaks site...
It was a distorted audio recording of a Mormon "sealing" (eternal spiritual marriage) ritual, that is a closely-guarded secret in the Mormon church, not open to outsiders. I don't recall the specifics, but I remember thinking how creepy it was at the time.
