Senate Democrats who trumpeted Bergdahl deal go silent

* Did AWOL, (since 6-30-09), Sgt. Bergdahl volunteer to the Taliban to be traded for 5 Taliban Leaders held by fellow Muslim Obama?

* If so, then did the Taliban make a side deal with Obama concerning information they had on Obama’s Benghazi Massacre of 2012?

* If so, then Trey Gowdy needs to include this illegal Obamadeal in his investigation of Benghazi.

* Since this illegal Obamatrade came directly from Obama, will Speaker Boehner instruct Trey Gowdy to include this Obamatrade in the House Benghazi Investigation, or will Boehner form a New House Committee?

* Did the illegal Obamatrade of one deserter, US Sergeant for five Taliban Generals benefit the Taliban more than it benefitted the US?

* Did this illegal Obamatrade “provide material assistance to a terrorist organization?” If so, then Obama has committed a Felony, by Federal Law.

* Was this illegal Obamatrade “contrary to American National Security?”

* Does any aspect of this illegal Obamatrade rise to the level of “Dereliction of Duty” by the Commander in Chief of the US Military?

* If so, would Impeachment of Obama be a deterrent punishment enough “to make sure that this never happens again?”

Here’s the real question.

What did Obama really trade for the 5 Taliban leaders?

It wasn’t Bergdahl. Obama wanted something else.

"next time, we trade 11 million mexicans for 1 marine"

That takes care of Texas - what about the rest of the country?

“Let’s distract the veterans plight at the VA by urinating on veterans and active-duty with the release of 5 Taliban high-ups for a deserter”

Yeah...that’s the ticket!

Marine truck driver and mechanic Bobby Garwood was captured in 1965 near DaNang RVN by the local Viet Cong. He was held prisoner for the next several years in primitive conditions but eventually was taken to a prison in North Vietnam. At some point Garwood began collaborating with his captors. Because of his skills as a truck mechanic Garwood was given some amount of freedom to work in a North Vietnamese Army vehicle maintenance garage. When North Vietnam released U.S. POW’s Garwood chose to stay in Vietnam until 1979. Upon his return to the U.S. he was indicted and court martialed for aiding the enemy. A number of former POW’s who were confined with Garwood testified against him. He was reduced in rank to private, given a dishonorable discharge and forfeited all back pay. He also lost his veterans benefits for life.

One difference between Garwood and Bergdahl is that Garwood was actually captured by the enemy while Bergdahl appears to have deserted his unit and perhaps sought out the Taliban with the intent of aiding them.

Also Bergdahl was promoted several times and is going to be promoted to E6 if he hasn’t been already

What about the terrorists that want to harm us and enter through tunnels from Mexico with illegals

Hell on Wheels coming strong.

This is the beginning of the end of the CPUSA.

“Taliban Mullah in Chief” Hussein Obama has chosen “Secretary of Defending the Taliban” Hagel to continue to make Grand Bargains with Gitmo Prisoners so that Gitmo can be closed on the last day that all US Military Personnel finally abandon Afghanistan to the Taliban.
