We gave up 5 senior Taliban leaders so we could get back an army deserter. Somehow, I'm not getting the picture. Can someone explain how this is a win-win situation?

His twitter feed has a lot of interesting comments that he himself tweeted or retweeted from others.

I'm willing to give this guy a break...for a while...

After all he spent 5 years in captivity, who knows what psychological treatment he has endured...

He heeds to ease back into US culture...

As for being a traitor...do we really know...?

Glad our lawless poseur in chief got our solider back...

I’m reading: No Good Men Among the Living: America, the Taliban, and the War through Afghan Eyes amazon.com/dp/B00GVRVAXM/… @Anand_Gopal_ (https://twitter.com/bobbergdahl/status/462726095171629056)

In a breathtaking chronicle, acclaimed journalist Anand Gopal traces in vivid detail the lives of three Afghans caught in America’s war on terror. He follows a Taliban commander, who rises from scrawny teenager to leading insurgent; a US-backed warlord, who uses the American military to gain personal wealth and power; and a village housewife trapped between the two sides, who discovers the devastating cost of neutrality.

Obama snuck into Afghanistan on Memorial Day, released the CIA station chief’s identity, and released five terrorists. Joke’s on the soldiers there who thought he came to see them. Wonder what those who clapped at West Point feel now.

Hussein’s real objective was to free 5 more terrorists from Gitmo while retaining plausible deniability. And since the American hostage was already a terrorist sympathizer himself, it was a no-brainer for Barry. Bottom line: 5 Gitmo prisoners walk free as birds, with the fig leaf of this supposed humanitarian justification.

The only thing I find interesting is that there was still at least one FReeper yesterday who kept insisting he needed to have all the facts, needed to know more, before he declared the obvious about this father, and its bearing on the whole sordid case.

These are exactly the types of “thoughtful” and “compassionate” and “nonjudgmental” and “fair” rules of engagement that keep losing us wars.
