We have a "tradition" of bringing soldiers home, said Clinton, "and I ascribe to it"

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Monday that the United States has a “tradition” of not leaving soldiers in captivity, when commenting about Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl’s controversial release.

“We do have a tradition and I ascribe to it,” Clinton said. “We try not to leave any of our soldiers on the field. We try to make sure, insofar as possible, you know, we bring them home.”

Hillary’s not running: flubbed the 3AM phone call on Benghazi, reset button with the Russians, and Bergdahl? Even an amateur like me could deliver that in a devastating 30 second ad.

No worries.. I’m sure team Barry will say Bergdahl forgot English entirely, and that he won’t be able to speak until well after Barry’s out of office. If he ever leaves office, that is.

One Live Traitor, Four Dead Hero’s.

Works either way for Hillary.

VT Senator Bernie Sanders, “people die evrey day”.
I guess Hillary agrees.

Hillarity is hanging herself for 2016 by defending this action.

Unless she is privy to what's coming down the line next...and next after next. And she is.

I think the gubmint is telling us he can’t speak English, to shield us from his anti-American ideology and to prevent interviews which would outrage Americans. The other tactic the gubmint will use is to keep him in a hospital for a long time “due to health issues”. It’s all a load of crap.

Yep.

I’m tickled that these bums are all speaking up on this.
When (not if) the next terrorist murders and destructions occur, everyone will know who to point their fingers at.

Typical Clintonese. Sure, Bergdahl's release is justified. The release of five top terrorists is not.

If Bergdahl were the biggest hero in American military history
0bama still committed high treason by letting the five highest level terrorists in custody go.

Hillary’s just doing a little prep work. She’s going to have to stand in front of the Benghazi Committee and explain what she was doing dealing with terrorists in Libya. She’s trying to get everyone used to the fact that it’s OK for her to be a traitor.

Whoever came up with this defense for her should also be tried as a traitor. Knowingly aiding a traitor is against the law.

I can imagine how the interview goes..

Bergdahl: America sucks..our military sucks
Chris Matthews: I agree I agree, hey do you want your own show, we could use the ratings..we are up to 4 viewers now
Bergdahl: Can my father have his own show too, without him I would have never joined the Taliban
Matthews: Sure why not the more the merrier

I really have to wonder if this is nothing more than Obama testing the limits of his power and if he gets away with it he is going to try to go full hog...

Yup. Obama does something lawless, Dems applaud, Pubbies whine, media spins...yawn. We’ve seen this movie before and everyone knows how it ends. So why bother?

It will be a cumbersome and unwieldy interview; he’s forgotten how to speak English.


Perhaps Rachael Jeantel can teach him now

Who cares what this failure-former-SOS says about anything except for BENGHAZI & the missing $6,000,000,000.00 ? What a fat oaf (not a personal attack...just a accurate descriptor)..

I think Obama was right, we should have returned those 5 back to the Taliban....

The Hard Way....

Should have dropped them off from the back of a C-130 at 20,000ft over Kandahar....

“We do have a tradition and I ascribe to it,” Clinton said.

“Ascribe”? I know this is the smartest woman in the world but how does that verb fit the context of the sentence?

Sarah Barracuda, you and I are officially on the outs now! I had cleansed that portion of my brain that contained images and memories of that most-confusing time in history! Now, I have to be waterboarded again!

Writing the ad is the easy part. The hard part is dissuading her imbecilic sycophants that she isn't worthy of being president.
