Mad Magazine Destroys Obama's Taliban Swap

Count Mad Magazine as the first pop culture institution to target President Barack Obama's Taliban prisoner swap.

It's hard to imagine any other humorist in any other medium hitting back quite so hard in the days to come.

The magazine posted a fake movie advertisement for Trading Private Bergdahl, a takeoff on the Oscar-winning film Saving Private Ryan.

The one-sheet features five Taliban soldiers and President Obama with this kicker:

"They got five Taliban leaders. We got one deserting weasel."

How insufferable will Obama be once his narcissism is no longer fed?

I wonder if Ozero knew that Bergdahl was a deserter before read about it in Mad.

Well...

Expect Mad Magazine to get audited in the near future.
Possibly even, “Gibson Guitar,” raided.

IMO, he knew. If he didn’t it is one of the singular idiotic moves of any presidency. And if he did know, he’s basically a traitor.

Now until he heard it on TV and he did not know what to say until he read it off the teleprompter.
