So who would have thunk that anybody would do this? and so quickly? you would sorta expect someone that have spent years as a prisoner of war would spend some time with family and friends before heading out on another assignment of war?
a little sarcasm here
Fox is reporting this morning that while we were sleeping, OBAMA ordered another release of FIVE TERRORIST detainees. Looks like perfect timing.
