This makes me sick with anger. The only bright spot is that comments on social media have been strongly and overwhelmingly negative. One can only hope the individual who ordered these cadets to embarrass themselves and the United States military will be disciplined.
The Obama administration knew that Bergdahl was planning to switch sides,but when Bergdahl’s platoon mates said he had deserted, Obama et al. said they were lying.
Following the announcement thatthe Army will be prosecuting Bergdahl for going AWOL, tweeters asked Brazile if she was going to apologize now. Her ONLY response:
“Go find your joy.”
Huh? I’ll tell you what would give me joy, Donna. Having you and all your racist buddies stop demanding that Barack Obama be judged solely by the color of his skin.
Here are a few other choice remarks various tweeters had for and about Donna:
Have you ever admitted you were wrong about anything?
If they admitted failures, they would have scant time for snarking.
Hope ACA covers chiropractic. Carrying Obama’s water has to be rough on the back.
Meanwhile, BizarrØland’s State Department spokeswoman, Jen Psaki, told Megyn Kelly they were totes standing behind the exchange because … wait for it …
“We have a commitment to our men and women serving in our military, defending our national security every day, that we’re going to do everything to bring them home if we can and that’s what we did in this case.”
Unless, they’re locked up in a Mexican prison for no good reason, in which case, Barack’s got no pen or phone.
Grab a tissue! This was a super happy day for Rowan, but if you don’t shed a tear or two reading his mom’s blog, then you need to check your pulse.
“Yesterday, I got to be a part of something awesome. We enlisted an 8 year old boy, suffering from a rare and life-threatening disorder, into the Texas Army National Guard. His nurse, is one of our guardsmen, and found out that being a Soldier was his dream. I was blessed to be a part of the group of people who planned the day and put all of the pieces together. This little boy was incredible and touched the hearts of everyone he met that day. His family were the most wonderful people. It is hard to describe in words what it meant to be a part of the whole thing. But it was amazing – the coolest and best thing I have done in my 9 years in the Army. My husband and son drove down to Austin to be a part of the day, and I got to help escort the family around for the day.” – Captain Martha C. Nigrelle
“It was so humbling and truly appreciated. Brian and I commented how apparent it was that none of these men were doing this for themselves, or for any gain other than blessing Rowan. You could tell they were thankful and grateful for the opportunity to do this for us. I overheard multiple soldiers and officers telling SGT Hixson “thank you for bringing Rowan to our attention”, and telling their Superiors “thank you for putting this together”, or” thank you for letting us be a part of this”. They were all truly happy to be there. I have never been so proud to be an American in my life. It was just beyond perfect.” – Rowan’s mom
I keep seeing and hearing people who are completely clueless how any American president can behave the way Obama does.
For example, retired General Barry McCaffrey called the Bergdahl-Gitmo prisoner swap “incomprehensible” because the White House knew within days of Bergdahl’s disappearance that he had deliberately deserted to join the Taliban.

But if you look at Obama’s behavior from the viewpoint of Muslim End Times prophecies, then everything he has done makes total sense.
Muslim eschatology predicts the rise of a global ruler who will convert all people to Islam. Muslims call him Imam Mahdi. One of the pre-requisites for Mahdi’s rise to power is the destruction of the “little Satan” – Israel – and the “great Satan” – the United States. President Obama has just been doing his part to help.
A year ago, when President Obama held a press conference in the Rose Garden to celebrate the return of the “captured” Bowe Bergdahl, he treated Ma and Pa Bergdahl like visiting royalty.
According to Allen West [http://allenbwest.com/2014/06/bombshell-first-words-bergdahls-father-white-house-arabic/], Pa Bergdahl’s first words at the White House were“bism allah alrahman alraheem”, which is an Arabic phrase from the Qu’ran that means “in the name of Allah the most gracious and most merciful.” Pa Bergdahl also wore a Muslim-style beard, but the lapdog press insisted he was a “devout Presbyterian.” (Suuuuuuuuuuuure he is.)
Last week, Bowe Bergdahl was charged with “desertion with intent to avoid hazardous or important service” (Article 85, UCMJ) and “misbehavior before the enemy” (Article 99, UCMJ). He will face a military court on April 22nd in San Antonio, Texas.

In the summer of 2014, DAESH (aka, ISIS, ISIL) attacked and captured the village ofDabiq, not because it has any military significance, but because Muhammad predicted the Day of Judgment will come only after the Muslims defeat Rome at al-`Amaq or Dabiq, two places close to the Syrian border with Turkey. Taking Dabiq from Sunni Muslims was viewed as an important step toward bringing about the rise of Imam Mahdi. http://www.businessinsider.com/isis-is-making-strategic-decisions-in-syria-based-on-ancient-islamic-prophecy-of-the-end-time-2014-10
Below are 11 major statements that Barack Obama has made about our military in Iraq:
As candidate for Illinois Senator in 2002, he said, “I don’t oppose all wars. What I am opposed to is a dumb war.” Then he proceeded to explain what a Very Bad Guy Saddam Hussein is and how much better off Iraq and the world would be if he were gone.
As a U.S. Senator in early 2007, he declared himself completely opposed to President Bush’s “Surge”, saying if it were up to him, he would “do the reverse. … I think he [Bush] is wrong, and I think the American people believe he’s wrong.” The Surge was a rousing success.
As a U.S. Senator in summer 2007, he wrote that the Iraq War “never should have been authorized and never should have been waged.” Obama advocated troop withdrawal “with the goal of removing all combat brigades from Iraq by March 31, 2008.” At this point, the Surge had only just begun.
As candidate for U.S. President in fall 2007, he said, “If we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am President, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank.” It was clear at this time that the Surge was working and that more of our boots on the ground was exactly what Iraq needed to keep the peace.
After taking his Oath of Office in January 2009, he stated, “We’ll begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people.”Anybody with any sense whatsoever knew this was a Very Bad Idea that would assuredly result in a resurgence in extremist Muslim violence, but he didn’t care.
At a speech at Camp Lejeune in February 2009, he told all our enemies exactly when our troops would be leaving Iraq.
On October 21, 2011, he reaffirmed his announcement of a hard date by which all our troops would be out of Iraq.
At a final campaign stop before the 2012 elections, the President took credit for ending the War in Iraq. “I said I’d end the war in Iraq, I ended it,” he said.
In August 2014, Obama blamed the horrific rise in violence by ISIS on George Bush.
In September 2014, Obama reiterated hisdetermination to NOT put U.S. boots on the ground.
On February 11, 2015, Obama asked Congress for the authority to put U.S. boots on the ground in Iraq, because, you know, ISIS. We had that damn war won before HE took over and pissed it all away.
Brian Williams has said that a friend of his in the Pentagon gave him “a piece of the fuselage of the chopper that didn’t make it in Abbottabad. It’s one of the toughest things to get. And the president has a piece of it as well.”
Uh huh. NOT. According to all the reports I read, the fuselage was destroyed by our operators before they bugged out of Pakistan.
They weren’t able to destroy the tail assembly, probably because it had landed on the other side of the wall. The Pakistanis kept it for a while, then returned it to the Pentagon.
Could Williams have obtained a piece of the tail? Suuuuuuuuuure. Cuz like people in the military are always walking off with bits of super secret stealth technology, just like they always fly First Ladies and their teen-aged daughters into live fire zones.
