Hey, I thought I was on the Bergdahl Excuse Ping List. I’ve been busy, and had no idea it had grown so. Thanks for keeping track. : ) I should check in more often.

In a few days, Obama is going to say he first heard about it from the media; and he’s really upset and has ordered an investigation.

Didja see Hagel the Haggard on TV tonight?

He looks like Hillary Clinton attacked his face with her hair dryer (a plugged-in portable electric mixmaster).

Then I want criminal charges. When the Caliph signed the Congressional notification law he said it infringed upon HIS powers as Commander in Chief. So how the hell should Hagel be allowed to make the final call?
