Obama wants to end all War, remove all US Military from foreign soil, free all prisoners, and capitulate to all Muslim Terrorist Organizations, MTO.

Appeasement was poorly handled by Chamberlain’s total capitulation to Hitler, but Obama knows that he can do better.

Obama’s Staff has correctly concluded that Boehner will NEVER bring Articles of Impeachment against Obama, for reasons known only to the weak, sobbing-coward Boehner.

Hence, Obama is free to do anything that he wants to do to “Fundamentally transform the United States of America” into the most powerful Fascist Nation that the World has ever known.

With the future joining of the Muslim Terrorists Organizations and Obama’s future Fascist America, there will at last be no more Wars, only sporadic episodes of Workplace Violence, for the next 1,000 years.

Obama and his Muslims owe Boehner a great debt of gratitude, as no other Speaker of the US House of Representatives has ever demonstrated a stronger refusal to Impeaching a US President.

In all fairness, Obama and his Muslims should be even more grateful to the TEA Party Republicans who have steadfastly supported Boehner, Cantor, McCarthy, Ryan, Issa, Mike Rogers and Peter King of New York for the Republic strategy of “Talking Loudly, but never using the Big Punishment Stick of Impeachment.”

Each day that the current GOP-E Congressional Leadership is allowed to stay in power, is another day that documents that there is no effective difference between the Democrats and the GOP-E Republicans.

Early voting starts in 90 days, TEA Party House Members. Tick-Tock - - - .

He’s right. It’s all about rolling up and closing GITMO to the “Clown” in the White House.

Bergdahl was a convenient way to do it.

That or a civil war, or both, is what he is going for.

You are more correct than you know. I saw this on the TV this morning:

PolitiFact: Is President Obama considering a third run for the White House?

They rated it "Pants on Fire," but I wouldn't put it past them to try. If anything, it's a trial balloon to see what people would say/think.

I think the bigger threat is a centrally-controlled group of individuals paying off the modern equivalent of Manchurian candidates while the levers are pulled behind the scenes. If anything, Obama might have an out if it's revealed that V. Jarrett and her cronies are the true power brokers in the WH.

Who was Obama rescuing: Bergdahl or the terrorists?

Obama was rescuing himself.

He knew he was breaking the law by not giving Congress 30 days. He knew he was undermining the military and increasing chances our men would be kidnapped in the future. And Obama knew the guy he was trading for was marginal - not a hero - not a SEAL - and quite possible a traitor.

Obama knew the five men he was giving up were top killers.

Obama's in a tough spot politically since ObamaCare - and knows it. This move was high risk for him and his party. He knew that too. Yet he moved unilaterally. Several possibilities... for his actions...

Was Obama also aware he was willfully violating the USA PATRIOT Act as well, which prohibits, among other things, providing "expert advice and assistance" and "personnel" to terrorist organizations? Because that's exactly what he did in releasing these five terrorists back to the Taliban. And there is no exception for the President to Title VIII of the USA PATRIOT Act.

You have to see it to believe it.... From the link:

June 3, 2014
Watch Obama’s face as Bergdahl’s dad invoked Allah in Arabic

When Bob Bergdahl launched in Arabic, invoking Allah while standing next to President Obama in the White House Rose Garden...

I don't see how this helps him at all.
Distracts from VA problems?

RE :”You have to think outside the box on this one sick..”

I always think outside the box relative to others here, its natural. I cant even see the box sometimes

The only benefit I see is that it rallies his lib base behind him, which seems to be the purpose of most of what he's been doing.

Obama doesn’t appear to care about his lib base either...

http://hotair.com/archives/2014/06/03/majority-in-wapoabc-poll-backs-benghazi-select-committee/

So much for “fringe” Republicans pursuing a “phony scandal.” Not only does the new House Select Committee on Benghazi get a majority of support in a new Washington Post/ABC poll (51/42), it gets support from almost a third of all Democratic respondents as well.

http://www.wnd.com/2014/06/no-more-tingles-down-chris-matthews-leg/

In May 2013, Chris Matthews, one of Obama’s most loyal sucklings, used his MSNBC platform to severely chastise Obama for his lack of leadership.

Your Benghazi link says nothing about that so I have no idea if you just want to believe that or if there is a actual basis for you believing it.
