On his June 3 Hardball program, MSNBC's Chris Matthews expressed his disapproval of the president having broken federal law in the process of securing Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl's release in exchange for transferring five high-level Taliban detainees from Guantanamo Bay to Qatari government custody.

Chrissie needs to just come out and say it. His “messiah” is a criminal.

The tingle is now flaccid.

"The tingle is now flaccid."

I think the tingle finally reached his brain and jump-started it.

It will be a very sad tragedy, lamented by thousands, or at least his two (2) parents ... and his former Taliban comrades-in-arms ...

but (former) Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl will suffer a tragic hunting accident within a year of being set free by POTUS Obama ...

tragic, I say, tragic ...

After six years he finally cares when Obama breaks the law, or is he just pretending in an attempt to restore credibility as if he were an objective journalist?

The feces is striking the rotating atmospheric transference device.

Looks like the thrill in CM’s leg turned out to be urine.

Even Øbama’s most ardent leg-humper can see the major downside to this “deal.”

[Baynative]

Oh Barack, my Barack.
Tell me it isn't true. Just make it all go away.
I beg you!

With the way the enemedia is hitting scrubama on this issue, it may be indicative that they have now officially passed the torch to hellary.

[Steely Tom]

Even Øbama’s most ardent leg-humper can see the major downside to this “deal.”

The only, only thing that's important here is this: "how does this affect President Obama?"

[mothball]

Lol!!!! That’s too freaking funny!!

[Sivad]

Or, how ‘bout a tinkle running down Chrissie’s leg?

[I still care]

Over on DU they are calling Matthews a Republican! Ha!

The man is so left he practically kisses Obamas boots everytime he thinks about him. Obama must have really blown it with the MSM to have Matthews in a tizzy with him.

Ya know, we live in a world with armchair lawyers. Everyone is an expert yet almost no one is.

I think signing statements are unconstitutional. However, SCOTUS has not weighed in on a device used by Presidents for, oh I dunno, a couple hundred years or so.

To say that any President following a signing statement is “illegal” knows absolutely nothing about which they speak. Because of that, there is nothing but bleating and a complete lack of getting a Judicial ruling which we need.

So frustrating. No wonder America spins in circles.

That leg “tingle” you feel might be a rash from p^ssing one’s pants. Chris.

[all the best]

I’ll be going to bed in an hour or so. I better not be seeing that in my dreams.

[US_MilitaryRules]

Hit him? With what? His feather boa!

[Cboldt]

But no disapproval of trading six terrorists for one traitor. Failure to inform Congress is “the least wrong” part of this affair. Make sense Matthews would direct attention there, much easier to “get over it.”

[Army Air Corps]

He lost that tingling feeling...
