If there was any question at all that Minnick really was a whacko liberal pretending to be a blue dog democrat this should answer it.

The United States does not negotiate with terrorists.

Swapping prisoners is a bad, bad idea an only emboldens the scum into taking more hostages to swap with.

Yes indeed. Let’s swap prisoners with the terrorists. Everyone knows (that since Obozo is the TOTUS) the terrorists can be trusted to keep their word (and they would never take more hostages in order to trade for more terrorists)/s.

Minnick is trying his hardest to pander, but he will fail in November.

Vaughn Ward’s statement on the recent video of Pfc. Bowe Bergdahl

Posted Fri, 04/09/2010 - 5:35pm

“My thoughts and prayers go out to Pfc. Bowe Bergdahl and his family. As a Marine Corps Officer, we are taught to leave no man behind and this circumstance is no different. I support our military commanders on the ground in Afghanistan and know that we will continue to do everything we can to bring Pfc. Bergdahl home to Idaho. However, Walt Minnick recently made statements on this issue that can’t go unchallenged, suggesting the United States consider negotiating a prisoner trade with the Taliban. This is incredibly naïve. Negotiating with terrorists bestows a status on them they do not deserve and Walt Minnick is flat wrong to suggest it.”
