Others, notably Joe Lieberman in the Senate and Peter King in the House of Representatives have pushed for new legislation to facilitate the prosecution of Mr Assange in the event that existing law proves insufficient. "Assange and his associates... have not only damaged US national security... but also placed at risk countless lives, including those of our intelligence sources," said Mr King.

Sure.  Just make a new law so you can nab this fellow who is exposing your crimes.  Brilliant!  Then change it again for the next case, and the next, and the next.  Justice for all, right?  Tailored justice, that is.
