Trading five terrorists for a deserter isnt just bad policy, its against the law
President Obama was wrong earlier this year to trade five hardened terrorists from the prison at Guantanamo Bay for a deserter. All but the presidents most dedicated supporters understood then that the trade was a really bad idea. Now, the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office has confirmed what many suspect, that the swap violated a clear and unambiguous law.
For this White House, the law is little more than an annoyance to be swatted away when inconvenient. Mr. Obama makes and remakes the law as he goes along.

BTW, speaking of Qatar ...... w/ a straight face, Hillary recently told Greta the Gitmo Five are NOT a problem to the US. BUT...due to her "concussion" (cackle) Hillary completely forgot to mention the Qatar/Clinton connection.
============================================
REFERENCE---QATAR DONOR TO CLINTON FOUNDATION/LIBRARY: As Hollywood hotshots protest the Beverly Hills Hotel over its ownership by Brunei's sultan and his embrace of Sharia law, it turns out the Brunei government has financial connections to "The Clinton Foundation."
The tax-exempt, nonprofit Clinton foundation lists Brunei along with Kuwait, Oman and Qatar (new home of the Gitmo Five) as donors that gave between $1 million and $5 million (to date).
The Clinton foundation itself confirmed the 2002 Brunei donation: "The Clinton Foundation's impact would not be possible without the generous support of our donors," the foundation's website reads. "Their contributions have made a difference in the lives of tens of millions across the world." Read more at foxnews.com ...
================================================
There's also a Harry Reid connection to the tax-exempt "Clinton Global Initiative" (one of the three Clinton tax-exempt foundations.
PUT ON YOUR TINFOIL HATS TO CONNECT THE DOTS:
(1) Harry Reid's son Rory is in business w/ the Chi/Coms on a multi-billion dollar solar energy project; Cliven Bundy and his land are standing in the way.
(2) Reports say Bill Clinton recently went to China to panhandle for his tax-exempt "Clinton Global Initiative" foundation.
(3) The "Clinton Global Initiative" (NOT KNOWN for giving out grants)---gave Harry Reid's granddaughter a grant for a Brooklyn, NY theatre she runs (what is a Brooklyn theatre's connection to "global initiatives?")
(4) A Nevada energy company also gave Reid's granddaughter's theatre group a grant.
================================================
"Money laundering" comes to mind. Could the Chinese be financing the Reid's solar project through donations to the Clinton Foundations....which is then laundered to Reid's granddaughter?
================================================
REFERENCE----HARRY REID IS LIVID THAT HIS GRAND-DAUGHTER HAS BEEN OUTED AS A RECIPIENT OF LAUNDERED CAMPAIGN CASH---Reid lashed out at reporters, saying, My granddaughter has been the target of harassing phone calls, strangers tracking her down, knocking on her door and negative, unwanted attention on the Internet. This has gone too far and it needs to stop now, Reid said. I deeply regret any role I had in creating this situation but now, as a grandparent, I say enough is enough.
============================================
Besides the "jewelry company" financed by her grandfather, Ryan Elisabeth Reid runs the Sprat Theater Company, a small theater in Brooklyn, which is also coming under scrutiny. According to Sprats Theatre Company Web site, it has received grants/contributions from:
<><> the Clinton Global Initiative (connected to global terrorism via Muslim Brotherhood employee),
<><> two major Las Vegas foundations:
Caesars Foundation, and the NV Energy Foundation.
NOTE NV Energy Foundation---is a non-profit division of NV Energy (a public utility). The NV Energy utility is a subsidiary of MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company which took over in 2013....and is now owned by a Warren Buffet unit.
BTW, here's Harry w/ his grand-daughter....the one who got $31,000 in laundered campaign funds for her "jewelry company" and grants from Clinton and Nevada energy foundations.
Reid and granddaughter Ryan Elisabeth Reid.
Thanks for the info — and I am sure this is merely the tip of the iceberg...
Laws? Wa aint got no laws. We don’t need no steenkin laws.
Daniel Halper provides a meticulously researched account of the calculations, secret deals, and backstabbing that led to the Clintons return to political prominence, and to Hillarys position as 2016 frontrunner.
The Bill and Hillary Clinton who left the White House in January 2001 almost seem like two different people from the ones the country now reveres. Back then they were a disgraced couple, weighed down by a decade of scandal, controversial pardons of financial supporters, and the pedestrian pilfering of furniture from the White House.
A dozen years later, as they prepare for a second White House run, the Clintons are in a completely different orbit. Not only have they gone from virtually penniless to multi-millionaires, they are arguably the two most popular politicians in America-respected and feared by Republicans and Democrats alike. Even their daughter Chelsea, raised in the White House as her father was impeached, is considering a go at politics. The Clintons will be around for some time to come.
Investigative reporter Daniel Halper of the conservative Weekly Standard uses a wealth of research and detailed interviews with friends, allies, and enemies of the Clintons to reveal the strategy they used and the deals they made to turn around their political fortunes-deals with their political allies, their political enemies, and even each other.

How rich are they?
Clintons raised $2-3 billion in two decades
The Hill ^ | July 2, 2014 | Alexandra Jaffe / FR Posted by Cincinatus' Wife
Bill and Hillary Clinton raised $2-3 billion in the two decades theyve been prominent on the national stage, according to the WSJ.
The Journal tallied the Clintons speaking fees, fundraising for their foundation and the sums raised for Bill Clintons two presidential campaigns for the DNC while he was in office and for Hillary Clintons Senate and presidential campaigns.
Between $1.3-2 billion came from U.S. companies and industry sources, making up at least 75 percent of the sum more than the 60 percent industry sources contributed to the two Bushes political operations.
The Journal reports that if Hillary Clinton runs for president in 2016, as expected, she could return such donors to the Democratic Party, a source of concern for Republican fundraisers as they gear up for whats expected to be the most expensive presidential election in history.
Overall, the Clintons political operations raised $1.2 billion, their nonprofit drew between $750 million and $1.7 billion and they made about $100 million in speaking fees. --SNIP--
=================================================
KEEP IN MIND These figures are what THE CLINTONS ALLOW us to know. DOES NOT include (1) amounts secreted in numbered offshore bank accounts, (2) vast investment holdings, (3) safe deposit boxes holding coins, gold, valuables, etc, (4) other holdings in real estate, businesses, (5) rental, interest accrued, investment income, etc.....

The latest Clinton frown-line maker is that they are investors in "The Beast"----the freight train company bringing illegals across the border to leech off Americans. There have been thousands of accusations of human rights abuse, and even reports of murder on the freight trains transporting undocumented migrants to the US border. The migrants have also reported train operators standard practice of extorting money from the passengers.
The trains used and involved in these accusations are publicly-traded companies, traded on NASDAQ, with "very influential stockholders", such as Clinton and Carlos Slim. Other stockholders include,T Rowe Price, Bank of America, and General Electric.
A real bummer is that these Mexican-originated transportation companies are involved in the Narco trade, and one report makes it clear that the companies are aware of the abusive practices their train operators are engaging in. The border swarm is all about human trafficking, narco trafficking, and government and corporate collusion.
NOT THE LI LIMITED---no running water and flush toilets
on those trains. How did the riders handle body wastes?
Coming to America---free ride courtesy of the Clintons.
As if he cares about the law.
Yeah, one more 'mistake'... /s
