Seems ridiculous but I guess you have to try and see things from Obama's narcissistic POV.

Actually, there are any number of political reasons he could have done it. All against the policy and law of the US.

His flunky Rice trying to explain the urgency of doing what they needed to do that required not telling Congress was laughable. “We felt that his health could have deteriorated so much....blah blah blah...that we had to act with urgency when the “opportunity came up” How did it come up? Secondly, while she says the ‘urgency’ of the situation demanded the action, she says “Congress WAS [sort of] informed earlier in the administration when situations like this ‘might’ come up” [or some such BS as that}.

The fact is that in order for them to have any inkling of this guy’s health, they would have had to have had knowledge of where he was and how he was. This then, begs the questions, why wait until his health (supposedly) deteriorated? Did Obama not go in and shoot Osama Bin Laden himself (to hear him tell it vicariously)? The fact is that the Pentagon knew where he was, how he got there and WHY he was there - and they just didn’t want to waste any more troops trying to rescue him.

This administration’s spiel always falls apart when someone starts thinking logically and without the “First Black President who must be protected at all costs” filter.

And finally, I find it whimsical that this occurs in the midst of Carney’s departure. Perhaps, did Carney finally get some integrity (doubtful) and just not want to go into another Rogers & Hammerstein Broadway play in the press briefings, again?

This has nothing to do with having to get Bergdahl back and everything to do with the Muslim Brotherhood pressure within the Obama administration to return key Taliban terrorists. Next on the agenda: the blind Sheikh.

Treasonous action by a sitting president. Impeach him and then jail him. But that will never happen to “the one”.

Folks, it is way past time....Start today writing (e-mail), calling, contacting in any way possible, your congressmen and women, your senators...anyone in DC about impeachment, censoring ending this mess we are in or your vote goes to their opponent....

Also for Obama to help make a Taliban Promotional Video to recruit more Taliban fighters for the future Pakistan - Afghanistan Superstate.

Benghazi Video to Quatar Video, we now live in a Video World!

Taliban - three victories in one week. Open statement on our draw-down schedule, “accidental” release of the name of our CIA station chief, and the Bergdahl trade.

Precisely. How was it that this bit of diplomacy "came up"? What conversation with whom generated this deal? There is so much more to this than meets the eye.Add it to the cache of smoking guns....

This is the equivalent of FDR trading Himmler, Goebbels, Goering, Keitel, and Heydrich (assuming they were in US custody) for an American Pfc who deserted to the Germans and joined the SS.

Obama and it’s gang should all be arrested, but they won’t be for it is more important to the Republicans to have talking points than to see justice done.

“Write and call congress to impeach the traitor.

Wrote both Senators and Congressman yesterday.

Told them if one American is killed by any of these five, Obama is guilty of murder as it he pulled the gun himself

it's more important to the 'pubs to have talking points than to see justice done

You've summarized the whole problem. We elect people to DC to hold firm. As soon as they get there, it all becomes a game to get them re-elected.

Watch how these threads evolve today. The RINO cheerleaders will tell us it's our fault for not electing McCain and Romney. Then they'll tell us we have to support their next RINO loser as the "lesser of two evils". In the meantime, they'll set up a few committees where they can give real good speeches.

And invaders will keep entering the US. And the HOR will still support funding to arm terrorists in Syria. And the elite will acquire even more wealth and power.

But hey, we gotta' vote for Jeb or Christe and we gotta' compromise on every issue or it's our fault.
