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.
No.
I’m sorry for this soldier and his family, but no!
What is more hilarious than a Democrat in Idaho?
Betcha Obama will change this, too.
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.
How about Minnick taking his place?
Minnick is trying his hardest to pander, but he will fail in November.
That’s what we say is our official policy, but we have done it before sub rosa.

Vaughn Wards 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 cant 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.

could we swap him for nancy pelosi?
