Feinstein is livid. Kerry thinks it's wonderful and explains that in 2 years, they would have been released anyways.

John McCain says if everyone knew everything, it would have never happened. Also, notes the sunset on the right to fight (which is the law under which we hold captives) was just extended a few days before the release.

Good morning all, AB

Thank you AB for doing this thread.

Daughter had PFA hearing. Husband stood up and told judge he WAS GOING BACK TO HIS HOUSE today!

Judge pointed finger at him and said “You are going nowhere, son”.

That house is my and my daughter’s name. I paid for it and of course I didn’t put it in his name.

He has NO job, no driver’s license. He has a wonderful life at that house not his. He gets to sleep all day, drink all night, rape his wife, abuse his child and tell me to shove my Jeep where the sun don’t shine.

Narcissistic as all get out and this is something I’m learning about. Narcissistic people are so out of touch with reality….like, say, just to keep it a little on topic, President Obama.

Anyway, judge told son-in-law to go get a lawyer and come back next week. So daughter’s life on hold another week.

He’s not coming back to that house, write it down.

Anyway, my column on PFA’s in Delaware cause don’t you know...well it’s a great story, read it guys.

John Atkins is a nut job on the loose. Pete Schwatzkopf….deal with your guy, YOU WANTED HIM! Heather Atkins gets PFA. Let’s talk about PFA’s. Mine own daughter got one a week ago. I am now an expert.

As Hillary Clinton distances herself and checks out which way the wind blows, a commentary on FoxNews [I do no recall the name of the person talking] made some interesting points.

Clinton is now claiming that Obama refused to go along with her recommendations on several of these foreign policy issues.

Sticky wicket.

Does that mean Obama didn’t think much of her advise, thus making her impotent or irrelevant? Is that why she actually accomplished litte as SoS?

By distancing herself, it appears that she really had little influence.

So, if she does run for the presidency, how does that play? How can she run against the Obama presidency while defending that she was a part of that administration during its first term?

Kudos to FOX News and Chris Wallace on a great show.

Juan Williams is either certifiably nuts
or an Obama-plant purporting the deserter
and maker-of-IEDs-for-the-Taliban is ... a “child”.

Only one comment today, because I am in a hotel with wife after a family wedding last night, followed by a high-school graduation on the way back home later this afternoon. Talk about event timing.

So, speaking of timing, either Obama had the Bergdahl deal in his back pocket waiting for a new scandal to push off the attention radar, or having the Friendly Fire from the VA scandal just was a two-fer for him.

The Bergdahl deal might just be the Obama Doctrine solution to his problem with his base; when will Gitmo get closed? After all, now that the guys at the top of the bad guy list have bene released, what's the harm in releasing the lesser bad guys?

And how many American lives do you want to risk putting these bad guys back in custody?

Bottom line; Obama has just undone all the years of sacrifice and controversy we spent in Iraq and Afghanistan since 9/11/2001. Next time we go into an undeclared war, we need to set a requirement that we go into war, win it, solve the problem that created the need to go to war in the first place, and then come home. We have a moral obligation to minimize the need for war, but we do not have a moral obligation to re-build a country that was a mess in the firat place.

If we do want to go into the re-building business, we should start with someplace local like Detroit, and figure out what works before we keep experimenting all over the globe.

Have a good weekend, See you next Sunday.

As always, thanks for the thread, Alas.

Having just seen Juanita Williams on FNS, I reiterate my tag line. What a toady for Mullah Baraq, spouting cliches and propaganda. Ailes should have left him on the curb where NPR dumped him.
