This is what Obama and Carney mean by "we consulted Congress," that is, we told Harry Reid in passing or in some email.

And Cockroach Harry Reid, with a foul smelling stain on his nose, covers Obama’s arse as expected.

“Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid received a heads-up on the deal to transfer Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl in exchange for the five Taliban officials detained in Guantanamo Bay but its not clear who else did....”
********************************************************************
Dollars to donuts that Hillary Clinton knew. In fact, this exchange may have been one of the main things on the agenda when she went to the White House last week.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) declined to comment when asked about White House outreach with regards to Bergdahl. Way to lead, Mitch!

Hmmm... Wonder how long it will be before OBAMA says he didn't know about it until he heard it on the news?

Reporting on this is insane. Probably best to wait a week to see what the real story is.

It could turn out that Mitch was “briefed” and never told his caucus.
Now that isn’t a “notification of congress 30 days in advance” but if he was not told he could have answered without declining.

Harry probably demanded a cut of the ransom money Obama paid.

Reid (D-Nev.) declined to discuss how much the Obama administration had kept him in the loop.
Oh, Im not going to talk about that, Reid said.

Did Kerry know?
This sort of thing would probably involve the State Dept.
But then again, it’s Kerry.

That was years ago, and was only hypothetical.

Usually, the co-chairs of the Select Intelligence Committees are told of these things, too.
For the Intelligence Committees, they're called "Select" because they are set up as fully bipartisan -- two co-chairs instead of chairman and a ranking member.

I wonder how long it will be before Obama says he’s “mad as hell” about it?
