This weekend we celebrate Memorial Day in honor of our American servicemen and women who have sacrificed their lives defending us both at home and abroad. Many of our troops enlist in the military upon adulthood and have served in wars before their classmates have even graduated from college. These men and women are true American heroes and we must protect them just as well as they protect us.
Unfortunately, despite President Obama’s Memorial Day proclamation that we shall “never forget” the sacrifices of our soldiers, he and Secretary of State John Kerry have forgotten about a living American hero in dire need rescue: U.S. Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi.
Tahmooressi, only 25-years-old, is currently jailed in Tijuana, Mexico, after he accidentally drove across the border with three legally owned guns.
During the four years he served in the Marines, he did two tours in Afghanistan. While on the battlefield, he saved eight Marines from the Taliban, and in a separate incident he saved a Marine from bleeding to death after he stepped on an IED and lost his legs. Tahmooressi also suffered a concussion when his vehicle hit an IED.

Time is of the essence...I second that..
Obama was MOTIVATED to help terrorists including
the Cole murderers, and al Qaeda, and felons,
and rapists, and murderers.
HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT AMERICANS.
Seems like a task for Recon rangers and SEALs.
The traitors have no intention of rescuing this marine. Kerry is probably negotiating with Mexican authorities to have him permanently committed.
You have to be willing before you can be able.
“Unable.” Unable my arse. Obama doesn’t care. Any stink raised will offend the delicate senses of our neighbors to the south. Obama is to respect their “rule of law” while pandering to Mexican illegal immigrants.
Because he doesn’t give an obama.
He could do it if he wanted to, but he just doesn’t give a rip.
Devoting time to this Marine’s plight might horn in on palling around with Beyonce and Jay-Z, yo.
Mexico is about importing illeagal aliens and drugs to the US anything else just gets in the way.
We should probably talk to the Mexican government.
Don’t they routinely empty their jails and mental wards and send them north across the border to el gringos?
All that for only three guns? What would they do to someone who sneaked 1,500 guns across the Mexican border?
Obozo should send his Wookie and Biden’s wife to Mexico to get our Marine freed.
To add pressure he can have his Follywood thug buddies who ramble on tv about having our vets 6 descend on Mexico to rescue our Marine.
Active Duty ping.
Screw that. Just INVADE MEXICO. Heck, we're already treating their citizens as 'our' citizens. Might as well make it official, and a lot safer.
I’m supprised Jessie Jacksons girlfriend is asking.
Obama’s mind...
A marine making a wrong turn in to Mexico with a gun. That’s a crime.
Illegal alien Mexicans killing, raping, assaulting American citizens is an act of love and they need to be released from jail immediately.
Tell Mexico that we’ll trade 11 million illegal Mexicans who are in the US receiving all sorts of benefits courtesy of the US gov’t taxing Americans to pay for it for that Marine.
I agree. Unfortunately, team Obama seems incapable of bringing anything home.
