Obama’s trade for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl now joins the infamous list of “Worst Trades in History.”
In the sports world there have been many legendary bad trades. Julius Irving. Kobe Bryant. Nolan Ryan. Hershel Walker to the Minnesota Vikings for an entire team of players and draft picks that led to three Super Bowl victories for the Dallas Cowboys.
But the worst sports trade ever was the Red Sox selling Babe Ruth to the Yankees. The Red Sox didn’t win another title for 86 years. The Yankees became the greatest American sports franchise in history. They won 7 World Championships with Babe Ruth.
It was called, “The Curse of the Bambino.”
But in the real world there was one trade that topped them all, when American Indians were conned into selling Manhattan for $24 of trinkets in 1626.
That was the worst trade in history. Until now.
Obama takes the cake. Obama just traded an entire team of Islamic mass murderers and America-haters for one tragically confused (or perhaps mentally ill) deserter and traitor. Not just any mass murderers, but buddies of Osama bin Laden.
Folks, that's a really bad trade. It just doesn't get any worse than that.
What did we get in return? A traitor who purposely walked away from his base searching for enemy to surrender to.
Whose search and rescue cost the lives of as many as 14 heroes (his military brothers).
Who may have converted to Islam and taught bomb making skills to the Taliban.
Whose father welcomed him home at a White House ceremony in Arabic. It is rumored the father converted to Islam.
That’s who we traded five mass murderers for? That’s what Obama broke the law for?
This story just doesn't smell right. Something is very wrong.
Keep in mind those five sworn enemies of American mass murderers all…haven’t even gotten back on the battlefield. Yet. But when they do, remember they were set free by our own President, to rain hell down on our American hero soldiers. Remember they were set free by our own President to plot a new 9-11 that could kill thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Americans (think dirty bomb).
The world is shocked. Our allies are horrified. America’s enemies are laughing and high-fiving. Our military is demoralized. Our economy is in free fall. Our dignity and legacy is in tatters. Our reputation across the globe is shattered. One man has destroyed the once great America.
Why did Obama break the law to trade for one deserter? Why would he risk all hell breaking loose for one traitor who cost the lives of six military heroes? Two reasons:
First Obama was desperate to get the VA scandal out of the headlines. He had to change the topic away from neglect and fraud causing the death and suicide of American military vets under his leadership. How better to change the subject and erase the scandal involving abuse, neglect and even murder of military vets than by appearing to be a Commander in Chief rescuing an American military POW. Obama had delusions of grandeur- overnight going from bum to hero.
Second, my sources in military command positions tell me that the CIA reported to Obama that Bergdahl was about to go on global television to denounce America, call our military evil...and do it all in Arabic. Obama would have been humiliated. His narrative of being such a big victor over Al Queda and the Taliban would have been destroyed….in front of the whole world…live on global television.
So here was the perfect way to kill two birds with one stone. But it all backfired as word spread of the betrayal by this American soldier…the deaths of his military brothers caused by his desertion…and the lies of Obama to cover up this outrage. Obama said not to worry about the five released terrorists- "we'll keep eyes on them." Hours later Qatar officials reported they are free to go anywhere in Qatar. And in one year, they are free to return to the battle field. Is Obama naive…a terrible negotiator…reckless…or complicit in a plan against America? You decide.
Forget the humiliation of selling Manhattan for $24. Forget “the Curse of the Bambino.” Forget all the humiliating trades in history. This one takes the cake. This is the “Curse of Barack Hussein Obama.”
The question is…is this the final straw? Has the American public awakened? Is this finally the offense that leads to impeachment? Or does Obama get to spend another two years on the attack against America- weakening our military, destroying our international credibility, killing jobs, and wiping out small business and the middle class with high taxes, onerous regulations, Obamacare premium increases and EPA intervention that raises electric rates past our ability to pay our bills.
The question is…
Who will stop Obama and save what's left of America?
The fake shutdown in October showed him that he can play the G.O.P. leadership like a cheap fiddle.
Someone in the White Hut has been watching “Homeland” and figured We The People wouldn’t notice while they made the traitor into a celebrity tool of the administration. What a great way to advance the agenda.
‘bout sums it up...
You can go find similar language in the UCMJ...
But, I am not sure the UCMJ applies to service members anymore, since they re allowed to lawyer up with civilian lawyers outside of the JAG or other military legal system...
Just look at the Hassan case (Ft. Hood)...There are a couple more capitol cases that I recall vaguely...Just don’t remember the names involved right off the top of muh head...
Now that we are at words with Russia they are stranded because Obama set the NASA strategy (back when Obama first took office) that NASA’s priority was to ‘reach out to muslims. Seriously, google it.
What do you mean the female voter? You got anything against females?
impeached, convicted, and removed... then indicted, convicted, and incarcerated.
“What do you mean the female voter? You got anything against females?”
Yeah, women tend to vote D. I’m a female. I voted twice for bill Clinton, once for jimmy carter and never voted for
Ronald Regan.
Women tend to vote with emotions, men tend to vote with facts.
In theory, could the military stop him?
I knew about NASA’s ridiculous priority... But the stranded astronaut is news to me. Free Republic is a great place to learn these current events.
Obama has gone all in. Between the EPA and this episode, he has shown his hand and he believes that it is a winning hand.
He will empty Gitmo
He will shut down the coal industry
He will call off the election in 2016
He will remain president until well into the 2030s
He will continue the systematic dismantling of America until he is no longer able to
“History teaches that you cannot stop tyrants by civil means.”

No more so than you could stop fire by drinking ice water.
Tagline.
“Ever seen pictures of him without a shirt or in shorts?”
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Looks kinda pale in some of those pictures? I think if he stayed inside and away from sunlamps for six months he would be disowned by his “African American” fans. In some pictures such as the one where he is coming out of the surf in Hawaii his collar line is very clearly visible and below it he looks almost as white as I am and I could be a Swede.
“Obama NEVER gets anything right.”
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Not if judged by the standards of someone who still believes in the vision of the founding fathers he doesn’t. I defy anyone to name anything he has done in office that would be approved by Washington or Jefferson.
In theory if there was military brass willing to pull off a coup d’etat and public with the the brass to support them . . .
