WASHINGTON –Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel apparently isn’t going to let the Obama administration throw him under the bus in the Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl scandal. In fact, you could say just the opposite.

But, but, but Bergdahl was a hero... and besides they were going to kill him... and Obama would do the trade all over again...
What happened to all those lies?

A unanimous decision? Like the Bay of Pigs? Ya think we got a new example of Group Think to study? Or was this Obama “suggesting” what he wanted and every one of his yes men knew what was expected of them?

I thought I saw Obama spiking footballs and dancing in the end zone in front of White House with Bergdahl’s parents.

Is Hagel about to have a heart attack or car wreck with a utility pole going 80 mph?
To: Nachum
Obama is going to need another scandal to knock Bergdahl off the front page. Give that big wheel a spin, Barry! Where she stops, nobody knows.

Me neither, but I bet he’s going to be needing to “spend more time with his family” soon.
