It’s also an easy scandal to understand. Everyone understands 5 filthy, murderous terrorists being released. Everyone understands a deserter.

The interesting thing: It may be even worse.

Brad Thor posted a article on The Blaze this morning, explaining that the guys holding Bergdahl wouldn't have cared about the 5 Taliban being released. They are only loosely connected to them.

One of their guys is being held at GITMO, but he was not released. So, what did they get instead? They are basically the Afghan Mafia, so it's likely they got paid, a lot.

If so, the release of the 5 Taliban is nothing but a smokescreen to hide the payment of a ransom.
