He saw a win/win/win:
Bergdahl’s release is window dressing, misdirection, to hide the real motives, whatever they are, of this amazing episode.
“He genuinely believed he was going to be praised for this. Oh, and people would forget about the VA thing.”
I thnk that’s it too. He was looking bad for negelcting the Vets, so this would counter the image of him being anti-military. Of course his feckless, bumbling staff blew it.
“He will again be promoted very shortly.”
If he’s not put under arrest pending court-martial... I put the odds of that of 60/40 in favor of arrest.
Taliban: cool it for two and a half years.
Obama: all prisoners released when his term ends. Guantanamo closed as promised. Nobel Peace Prize justified at long last. Peace on earth. Legacy secured.
I recommend Jack Nicholson for the Obama part in the movie. Louise Fletcher would make a perfect Taliban negotiator. Movie title: One Flew Over the White House.
I see three possibilities here. Either Peters is right on and the CinC and his National Security staff and the press are fools, or the CinC is a malevolent figure fiddling the fools, or what I hope is the case, that the CinC is running one serious counter intelligence op that has some good actors and will yield up something akin to Zawahari’s head.....
They will make a Islamic “prophet” out of him for the USA since we don’t have anyone singing praises to allah from a soapbox
Great picture. I’m sure his Qatari benefactors will contribute to its upgrade in the fullness of time.
Jeff Kuhner, on WRKO Boston, said this morning that The NY Times Magazine says that since the day he took office Barry has been on a mission to release these 5 terrorists. According to Kiuhner he has been obsessed with this for 6 years.
I fully believe they put her out there on Bengazi and this incident because she is BLACK so they can place the black race card and the woman card IF anyone dare criticizes her.
What an irredeemable slime.
It’s treason! We gave back 5 senior Taliban who will now plan and lead efforts to harm the USA, while we’re still engaged with them in combat.
This is either stupid and weak leadership or treason....I’ve made up my mind considering past behavior and remarks by Obama.
Very possible----especially after his West Point debacle.
As the Daily Caller reported: The reception for his West Point speech was dire. The Washington Post declared that Obama had “marshaled a virtual corps of straw men,” in making an argument for an “Obama doctrine” that was at odds with every US president since the Second World War. Aside from the very serious real-world consequences, Obama’s foreign policy failure also has serious political consequences.
=================================================================
POSTER'S OBSERVATIONS---The MSM tried to downplay the icy reception.... saying cadets are instructed not to interrupt the speech w/ applause. But look at the news clips----the overwhelming numbers surrounding the smallish group of grads were family and friends....who failed to applaud.
KEEP IN MIND The WH criminals have plans.....including the use of federal military force, authorized during times of "civil unrest." Only question is: how are "tolerant and compassionate" Dummycrat weenies planning on creating "unrest" so that the Chicago criminals in the WH can subdue us?
Fact is.....HE is the civilian the military needs to protect us from. After that chilly reception the narcissistic POS got at West Point, there's no question about who they'll take their orders from. Clearly, most of the military think he’s a POS; they won't take orders to go against civilians.
The POS prez is decidedly stupid---he thinks a bunch of Chicago criminals can outgun the highly-armed and sophisticated American public.
The Chi/criminals better read the Constitution----the military can commandeer the WH, the Oval Office, and its occupants in a nanosecond.
More egregiously, the Obamatons have been tinkering w/ the composition of the military to reinforce their left-wing agenda; enlistees include homos/transgenders, and other perverts, fem/lib weirdos/lesbians, illegal aliens (probably felons). These people owe their lives to the clown and will kill Americans citizens with glee.
Hardly the types the establishment military needs to wage war. The military-hating Obama's tinkering is not designed to garner applause from the military establishment.
The facts are these: Obama's incomparably stupid West Point speech signals his presidency has entered a crisis of confidence, marking an abysmal failed presidency.
“...honor and distinction.”
Clown Prince nobama and his Clown Car losers see “honor and distinction” as anyone who despises the United States and our Freedoms. Clown Prince nobama and his communist minions should be exiled from this wonderful country. I hope all the complete morons who voted DIM/LIB at any level are proud of them selves. Fools...tools.
SOMEONE wanted this to be a scandal. Someone who has influence over the media because the media was all over this. They didn't ignore it like they do every other Obama scandal. If this was going to be true to form it would have been nothing but a conspiracy theory among all those right wing nuts. Heck, it's doubtful they would have even reported the 5 gitmo terrorists released.
There's no way for Obama to distance himself...he took full credit and plastered his face all over it. This is almost, almost, a military coup. No military people kept their mouths shut.
