Symbolism is very important to leftists. In fact, a symbolic gesture is taken by them to be far more important than the actual results of an action.
And Obama has made a VERY symbolic gesture to the enemies of the USA, and I have no doubt they’ve taken notice.
Obama moved heaven and earth, probably breaking federal law to bring Bo Bergdahl home, trading 5 enemies of the USA to terrorists in return for a deserter, while he allows a decorated Marine veteran, suffering from PTSD, to rot in a Mexican prison.
Obama is making a statement to the country, and to our enemies, with his actions.
