White House: ‘No evidence’ Bergdahl fraternized with Taliban

A senior White House aide said Thursday he had seen “no evidence” to confirm a report that rescued Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl converted to Islam, fraternized with the Taliban, and declared jihad during nearly five years of captivity.

“We have seen no evidence of that,” deputy national security adviser Tony Blinken told CNN when asked about a Fox News report about Bergdahl’s conduct while imprisoned by the Taliban.

But! But! The taliban said that they let him carry his own AK. And, it was even loaded.

Are the taliban lying?

[Tzimisce]

No evidence other than the witnesses, pictures and letters to home they mean.

Obama will learn about Bergdahl's cooperation with the Taliban when it's on TV, just like y'all do.

“We have seen no evidence of that,”

Of course you haven't. You can't see what you refuse to look at.

First Lady, Morgan Fairchild... that’s right! Morgan Fairchild, backs Obama up on this.

You will notice that not one word has been reported out of the mouth of Bergdahl himself. Not even a quote about a thank you to his “liberators”.

Just crickets.

Those are the loudest crickets I have ever heard.

His silence speaks volumes.

But no evidence of it.

“We have seen no evidence of that,” deputy national security adviser Tony Blinken told CNN...”

Who knew Sgt. Schultz was now in charge at the White House? “I see nothing, nothing, nothing...”

[longfellow]

We know the pos president has.

Sure. When you’ve got your head in the sand it’s easy not to ‘see’ anything.

[RIghtwardHo]

Or ours. 25 years of Prosecuting isn’t wrong. You WAIT for the facts not the noise from the event.

This could go VERY badly ... for either side.

Actually, I think it's hilarious watching Obama and his handlers try to spin everything about Bergdahl. Caught them all off guard when even Democrats and the puppy dog media began asking questions. They actually expected Obama to be hailed a hero by one and all and were totally unprepared for all the fallout.

I have to go out and buy more popcorn. This is getting good.

Every single day the cascade of outright lies continues. Eventually even the dumbest of the dumb will realize that everything these people say is a lie.

When no one believes a single word coming from the administration of the US, we will have reached a very dangerous time. That time is fast approaching.

Not even a SMIDGEN of evidence....

Problem is the Obama worshippers will rationalize the lies as a necessary step because the Repubs won't get out of the way of progress.

We have seen no evidence of that...

Heard it? Been told about it? Been extensively briefed on it? Well, none of that counts as having seen it. Standard leftscum word parsing...

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Isn’t this riff number eight or nine on the Bergdahl story ?

[Balata]

If the White House is all about closing GTMO, then if they are successful the Taliban will release Bergdahl's conversion video and get the last laugh.

Folks, we have a Low Information White House. (LIWH)

Sad, but true.

Yup. It's been said here before: Obastard could gut a dog and BBQ it during a live press conference, and the obamabots would continue to support him. He could probably even do that to a person and they would not care...
