ALINKSY RULE 8:

“Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new. (Attack, attack, attack from all sides, never giving the reeling organization a chance to rest, regroup, recover and re-strategize.)

1. Health in danger

2. Previously consulted with congress

3. Swiftboating

4. It was an oversight, sorry

5. Platoon full of psychopaths

6. Taliban threated to kill

7. "What difference does it make?"

8. Stockholm Syndrome

9. PTSD

10. No evidence converted to Islam, fraternized with Taliban, and declared jihad

11. Physically abused, confined in cage

12. Racism

13. Moderate Taliban

14. “Raggedy" platoon

15. "No matter what, to leave an American behind in the hands of people who would torture him, cut of his head, do any number of things"

16. Obama broke unconstitutional law (that he signed)

17. Wasn't only soldier to 'walk off' post

18. Only tenuous link to U.S. deaths

19. “PR campaign by Republicans” ... to “muddy the waters”

20. Hagel, NOT Obama, made the final call on #Bergdahl swap, (see also #16)

21. The Taliban Five aren't as bad as you think, three were governors

22. Decision made day before

“We couldn’t notify congress because we made the decision rashly and let the Taliban set the location the day before. They insisted on this so they would have the option of setting a trap for us and we wouldn’t have the same option. Of course, we agreed to this, considering the urgency of the president’s need to get the VA scandal off the news. If we had to do it all again, we would do it exactly the same way or perhaps even more stupidly.”

Some dog ate his list of fellow islamists. He became confused.

Then the WH constructed a deal that was in violation of the law. I think there may be another law that process violates.

How is this:
DON’T MAKE DEALS WITH ILLEGAL TERMS!

Can I be any clearer?

Now, who is going to be punished?

Obama wanted to notify members of congress and the Senate but no one in the White House knew where they were located or if they really existed.

They had heard about congress, and some had even read about congress in old history books. But no one in the administration has actually seen, heard or talked to anyone from congress.

Many younger members of the administration don’t think congress is actually real. They think it is something like Valhalla or Pandæmonium or Xanadu.

No, I didn’t. Honest... I ran out of gas. I... I had a flat tire. I didn’t have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn’t come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts! IT WASN’T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!

New excuse for not notifying Congress of Taliban 5 swap: Decision made day before

And it takes how long to e-mail or text message every congressman and senator?
