The NY Times is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Obama Regime. Their inane attempt to calumniate Bowe Bergdahls platoon mates has fallen as flat as the Regimes serial futile explanations of the five for one swap.

Calumny ate it.

The only thing that would surprise me more than Cantor's defeat would be the Rangers waking up and winning four straight.

Everything I needed to know about Eric Holder, I learned immediately after the 2008 election, when he refused to prosecute the New Black Panther thugs in Philadelphia who committed the worst case of voter intimidation since Bull Connor was Commissioner of Public Safety in Birmingham, Alabama, in the 1950s. Holder argued that what was done to the Blacks was far worse than what happened to some White people in Philly, so he wouldn't prosecute. Instead of the Constitution he swore to uphold, Eric Holder works under the "Two Wrongs Make A Right" school of legal theory.

Obama’s blatant support in favor of the Taliban during the recent Bergdahl deal is just one more move towards the general goal of bringing an Islamic “Calumniate” onto the scene...

not sure how hard that will be to find, but guess we will see.
