Let's Come Up With The Dumbest Bergdahl-Swap Defense!

Recently, I documented the insane verbal diarrhea-like fountain of lame Bergdahl-Taliban swap justifications. They consist of "we did it because Bergdahl was in bad health", "because he is a soldier who served with honor and distinction", "Hey! Those who criticize him are Swiftboating him!", "The platoon colleagues who criticize Bergdahl are psychopaths", "If you don't like this swap, you are a racist who hates Obama", and "Obama couldn't inform congress because the Taliban would kill Bergdahl".

But they just won't stop, and it seems like it is a race to the worst. Mark Finkelstein documents an even lamer excuse: "That we wouldn't leave a good Jewish kid over in Afganistan, you know."

So, I figure the administration is running out of super-lame excuses for this politically motivated, purposefully distracting terrorist favoring deal. Free Republic to the rescue! We can help!

Here is my entry. Put yours on the thread:

"April 15 just passed, and Bergdahl's father took a huge tax hit because he could no longer claim Bowe Bergdahl as a dependent. We needed to swap five dangerous Taliban terrorists to give Bergdahl senior a little tax relief. What are you, a Tax-lover????"

I told ya the phony VA scandal didn’t have a smidgen of truth about it and would disappear off the media’s screen.

With only three days left in Pakistani International Airline’s “Spring Fling” blowout sale, we had to get Bowe out quick or risk a significant fare increase and loss of his Jihadi Club privileges.

The Bergdahl / Taliban swap was the administration’s attempt to deflect millions of mindless Americans’ attention away from the “I Wanna Marry Harry” tv show. We actually owe Obama, er Hagel, er pajama boy a debt of gratitude for pulling the trigger on such a bold and daring maneuver. Who can blame them for not notifying Congress? Returning 5 4-Star equivalent terrorists to fight us again shouldn’t bother us if the media doesn’t report on the impending attacks, should it? Sarcasm off....
