Leading lawmakers on Monday called for an immediate investigation into the Obama administrations controversial decision to release from prison five top Taliban leaders in exchange for an American prisoner that some troops have dubbed a traitor.
Sen. Lindsay Graham (R., S.C.), in a letter to the Senate Armed Services Committee, requested that an immediate hearing be organized to examine if the Obama administration broke any laws by unilaterally releasing five top Taliban leaders in exchange for Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who spent five years in captivity.
Graham and other key lawmakers charge that the White House has jeopardized U.S. national security and broken the law by freeing top Taliban leaders who are likely to rejoin the terrorist network and pick up the fight against America.
New information released Monday by Congress further shows that the Obama administration violated the law by not informing Congress of the release beforehand.

RE: Senators: Obama Broke the Law by Releasing Taliban Dream Team
NEXT QUESTION TO YOU SPINELESS BUNCH: WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
History tells us nothing will be done about it.
Yea I am thinking Issa will launch an investigation that backburners all the others...that will ALSO go nowhere.
Frauds one and all.
Impeach the sonofabitch.
By the way, miss Romney yet?
Obama’s got a thing for Dreamers
Senators, call for a vote to IMPEACH OBAMA!
If it doesn't fly, then after November 2014, call for another vote to impeach him.
If 0bama has nothing to hide, why would he do this behind Congress’ back? Clearly, he did it this way so that IT WOULD BE TOO LATE TO UNDO THE TRADE.
Russia solves the problem people issue with Polonium.
Nope. He was a POS with his own set of evil.
Hearings,yep,yep,we’re going to Hearings!
Politically impossible.
The majority of the House (Democrats and RINOs) is too paralyzed to act. Political correctness has them speechless, and the media has been, for the most part, utterly silent about the truly treasonous behavior of the Current Regime.
The Russian Federation has a more circumspect and law-abiding government. Bashar al-Assad has more political support in Syria than the Current Occupant now squatting in the White Hut has in the territory once known as “the United States of America.” Insurgents within Syria are probably less likely to dislodge al-Assad, than The Won shall leave office before the end of his term in January 2017.
... By doing this, the media and the public can't remain focused on any singular scandal. And, no matter how serious the scandal is .... the effect will be blunted by the constant swirl of deflections and diversions.
.... Quite simply, The more scandals out there the better it will be for this administration because scandal fatigue has already taken hold. People just won't care anymore.
Zipper-Boy Clinton proved to all Democrats that the Chief Executive is above the Law of the Land.
Obama knows this, and Boehner knows this.
Hopefully, Trey Gowdy does NOT know this.
