Yep and his track record of late has not been that good. I’m from ID - I’m sure mine would also.

I don't know if anyone mentioned this, but days ago the thought occurred to me that if this headline were to be in actuality true -- and that they would have killed the guy -- then PERFECT.
They crack open a bud (kill the deserter) and hopefully post a youtube video of themselves doing it --- in return, WE finish off the rest of the six-pack (the five who would have been traded).
I know, I know...I should be President. Or a national security adviser at least...

Congress was not told so that they could claim ignorance in the coming elections - otherwise, they would have had to speak out. Just my opinion, but the leadership had to know.

It would have been better to give them the million bucks in 2009 as the US dollar doesn’t buy half what it used to, while terrorists hold their value so long as they are warm and breathing and can still fight.

Senate Intelligence Committee would have gone and informed the Taliban right away if they were briefed?
