The only way it could have leaked is by a Dem Congressperson leaking it to the AP who would then report it.

"So why was this piece of crap so valuable that Bambi was so willing to be BLACKmailed by the Taliban and hide it from everyone?"

Occam's razor would lead to the conclusion that Obama did this because he sympathizes with the Taliban, sympathizes with the wimpy liberalism of this Bergdahl character, and arranged this with the full intention of saving the traitor and returning the terrorists to the battlefield to once again attack us.

I mean, let's just examine the record:

- Obama hung out with Marxists and other radicals

- He has expressed clear disdain for the Constitution

- He made it clear that he wanted to "fundamentally transform" America

- He attended Muslim schools

- He waxed nostalgic about the Islamic call to prayer

- In the same Cairo speech, he used the phrase, "Assalaamu alaykum", a greeting from one Muslim to another.

- He continually refers to the "Holy Koran."

- In foreign affairs, he reliably backs radical Islamist groups (such as in Egypt, Libya, and others) while refusing to lift a finger when pro-freedom groups attempt to overthrow dangerous, Islamic regimes (like in Iran).

- And now he frivolously releases five extremely dangerous prisoners in return for a treasonous, terrorist "groupie."

There is no longer any question: Obama is an Islamic sympathizer who is trying to inflict maximum damage on our country. He IS the enemy.

“What difference would it have made” if they had “killed” him?
I wouldn’t have traded moldy bread for the SOS if what I have heard was true.

Senate Intelligence Committee Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein said Tuesday that the White House told her that it was on “oversight” that Congress didn’t receive the required notification about the prisoner exchange deal that secured the release of U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl.

Mrs. Feinstein, California Democrat, said the excuse came from Tony Blinken, President Obama’s deputy national security adviser.

So they accidentally didn't tell Congress on purpose?

You want Bergdahl to tell the truth. We must all realize that Bergdahl has opted for captivity in Germany in place of Afghanistan. It may be that if the truth comes out Obama might have to kill him. What’s a prisoner to do? His imprisonment in Germany and its duration is directly related to how long it will take to ‘get his mind right’. Shakin’ the bushes Boss! Shakin’ the bushes!

You forgot that it was an oversight that Congress wasn’t told.

I think the Talibanis were saying that they would kill Bergdahl if the swap got out,

It's a good thing 0bama kept it a secret then...
