President Obama thought trading a deserter for five top terrorists would be a PR coup. What does this tell us about our president as a person? At the most basic level, it shows that Obama does not share Americans visceral reaction to Bergdahls betrayal of his fellow soldiers and country. Obama, and no doubt Kerry, thought a deserter could be palmed off as a perfectly fine hero.
Before rushing on to the usual chatter about Obamas incompetence, his wanting to get attention off the VA, and his grandiose belief in his brilliance at negotiating with Islamist regimes, it is important to pause and consider why Obamas gut reaction is so off.

His actions are not evidence of incompetence. Rather they reveal his intent.
What he did, how and why were deliberate.
Our reaction means nothing to him.
Obama 2 point Doctrine: do whatever will hurt the US first. Second, revert back to the first premise.
AGREE!!!
Some fearless reporter should ask obama...what is the obama doctrine?
After his long senseless, narcissistic, filibustering answer a follow up would be, how come so many Americans believe your obama doctrine is to destroy the country.
Of course if such a reporter exists, that reporter would never get close enough to ask such questions.
America, Remember in November and Get out the Vote! We are in a very real fight for our survival and that of Western Civilization,
“Speak often and wield a limp stick?”
"Calling this political correctness is to trivialize it. If these policies were limited to discussions in the faculty lounge, they could be called political correctness. When our president hands power over our homeland security to jihadi groups, it is collaboration with the enemy."
Who here at FR can disagree with that assessment?
There’s not doubt: the Mahdi is an Islamocommunist criminal. Indeed, all of his voluntary adult associations and friendships have either been with communists, Islamists, or criminals, including the criminal Moochelle. That makes him all three.
Does anyone remember the Egyptian diplomat who, early in O's presidency, said that Obama told him he was a Muslim, and said, "Muslims will see what I will do for them regarding Israel?
This has gotten remarkably little press--considered a slanderous rumor.
Also, does anyone remember "my Muslim faith" in conversation with Stephanopolous? Passed off as a slip of the tongue.
And then, there's the well-known "57 states" slip. It's not arithmetic, or ignorance of how many US states there are. There ARE 57 theocratic, Islamic states, and that's what was uppermost in Obama's mind when he made this Freudian slip.
I did read it to the end. That’s why I posted it and gave it such high praise.
Hillary and Obama were up to some kind of no good when they overthrew the government of Libya. The Democrat voters couldn’t see that, but Al Qaeda could. So, our enemies attacked the operation in Benghazi. Once our enemies had the Ambassador (at least his body), they began negotiating WITH OBAMA.
Once Obama started negotiating with our enemy, they let him know that they were aware of whatever no good Hillary and Obama were up to when they overthrew the government of Libya. This caught Obama by surprise. He then realized that he had to give the enemy everything they asked for to keep them from releasing the goods on him and Hillary.
That’s why Obama went to bed. He was scared the enemy was going to release the info on his actions in overthrowing the government of Libya.
There is also the matter of the antiaircraft missiles that Hillary and Obama let fall into enemy hands in Libya.
Hillary and Obama were looking to score some easy money in Libya, and our enemy caught them in the act and has been blackmailing them. The first thing we have to do is take away the blackmailers hold on us. That means Obama must resign. He can claim he’s sick. As for the antiaircraft missiles, maybe we have to pay some blackmail money.
One thing is for sure. We MUST punish the Americans who got us into this mess and who have been covering it up. There might be some Republicans who knew about this and have been keeping quiet. Not very smart, but understandable. Maybe they get to stay, maybe they have to resign. Either way, they aren’t criminals like the Democrats. Using the good offices of the Executive Branch of our country to make personal profit must be punished to make sure this kind of behavior is not repeated.
You did well. My comment was really addressed to the Freepers in general who often comment based on a read of the first two lines of an article. I’m even guilty of that bad habit myself.
In this case the article should be read start to finish.
A few dozen Ron/Rand Paul drones who spew on this forum regularly.
Everything is pretty much spot on except the 1st sentence which is complete nonsense.
The reaction is exactly what they were looking for.
Because of the reaction, everyone is now thoroughly convinced the Obama adm. has been wanting to trade the deserter for the terrorists all along.
BS
Trading traitor for terrorists is a cover story, a ruse, it’s a type of code.
The person that was actually supposed to be traded for the terrorists was Ambassador Stevens.
Hillary used this exact same trick of creating a cover story to fool people when she had Craig Livingston get FBI files.
If anyone raised a question about FBI files people automatically assumed it was the FBI files Craig Livingston got.
To this day people still believe the threat of the use of FBI files against people involved the FBI files C. Livingston got because of the orchestrated uproar over C. Livingston getting the files.
2 bit attorneys never change. If their tricks worked once they will use the same trick again.
Hillary is nothing but a 2 bit attorney. She’s the one behind this to cover up her collaborating with muslim terrorist to attack Benghazi and take Ambassador Stevens hostage.
Yes that is a good article.
But honestly, weren’t all the warning signs there to begin with? For anyone who wanted to look at the idiot objectively?
Unfortunately Big Media whipped up this cult-of-personality display whenever they talked about him, constantly gushing about his superhuman abilities and hinting that he had no faults, whatsoever. No wonder the stupid people, of which (a)there are now a lot, (b)who believe everything Big Media tells them, and (c)each have one vote, swooned over this clown.
And they still do. This idiot STILL has 35-40% support, even after all these displays of gross incompetence.
Win win situation for Obongo : He got 6 muzzie bros freed.
