Yeah poor Obama. He can’t match the action of Republican Presidents who gave away hundreds of missiles for what was it now, (Reagan),or Bush Jr. who let 500 terrorists go from Gitmo, for what did he get for it? Yeah Obama is so bad because he gave up 3 for one of our own. Having served 20 plus years in uniform it nice to know that whatever my unproven to this point crimes may have been, I wouldn’t be left to rot in a hell hole in some country. And if he is a traitor, as a former GI I would definitely want that person back in the States to face the music for not only his crimes, but to also literally come face to face with the one’s he abandoned in court, not in a safe haven in some other country. One thing about the Israeli military, they will give up almost anything to get their people back, and the country as a whole supports it. But here in the mighty USA, not so much.
Please tell me what statement I said was factually wrong. Also you seem to ignore the fact that at least some of those that Bush 43 released did come back to attack American forces again. And if those released before were POWs, then these guys just released were exactly the same. You can’t pick and choose which facts you want to believe and others that you don’t. You are right about the traitor part though. He is accused of being a deserter only, and I stress only accused at this point. Lastly you may think Israel has made a big mistake, but that country doesn’t seem to think so. As they have done the exact same thing to extreme degrees over and over again.

At least he’s not completely insane. Insane POWs run for Congress and the Presidency.

The great American tradition. Convicting someone before they are tried.

The wingnuts sink to new lows. If rescuing prisoners caught in questionable circumstances is such a bad thing let’s send John McCain back to Vietnam.
