Four House lawmakers -- two Republicans and two Democrats -- plan to introduce a resolution condemning President Obama's decision to release five Taliban detainees in exchange for the release of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl.

Reps. Scott Rigell (R-Va.), Reid Ribble (R-Wis.), John Barrow (D-Ga.) and Nick Rahall (D-W. Va.) plan to introduce the resolution later Wednesday, according to a statement obtained first by The Washington Post and aides familiar with their plans.

A resolution?

Will this resolution “make sure that this never happens again?”

It had better be “strongly worded” and delivered to the White Hut by a beetle-browed mailman! Grrrrr! That’ll show him.

A resolution condemning the swap?

Impeachment for TREASON!

He has returned 5 top enemy commanders to the enemy which has not surrendered! A blatant overt act of aid to the enemy.

A Congressional resolution condemning something. Right up there with candlelight vigils in terms of effectiveness.

If they don’t call it treason then it’s just a dog and pony show.

Both Holder and Lerner have been held in contempt.
The sergeant-at-arms has been instructed to take
away their birthdays.
But just for 2014. Don’t want to be draconian.

Why?

Perhaps the Republicans want their own distraction from their support of amnesty and the mayhem occurring at the border. The more I look at this Bergdhal swap the more it looks like Obama cooked it up FOR the republicans to distract us knuckle dragging tea partiers who insist the border be secured.

BFD. Spend some time drafting articles of impeachment instead.
