Obama is pathetic.
His supporters are beyond pathetic.

Was Hagel at the Rose Garden ceremony with the mom and dad? If not, why not, if this was really his idea, and his decision?????
And why has Obama been out there defending that decision, which he said he himself made, and he himself would do again, if it was really Hagel? Why hasn’t Obama been saying that he accepted the decision of Hagel and trusted his judgement, etc. instead of telling us that he, Obama, made the decision???
What a tangled web is being woven.

Hagel : The sacrificial goat, gets thrown under the bus
ODinga has no fingerprints on the decision
Hagel was the one who 'signed off' on the release
Quite a change from the Rose Garden press appearance of several days ago
ODinga must heard about it on the news, because he is running away from this !

“Republican” in a Dem administration = first guy pushed into the gator pit.
Well, screw Hagel, frankly. He has always been a slimy guy, and very cozy with Arab terrorists.

Smells like another case of The Won not knowing anything about it ‘till he read it in the NY Times - Hagel did it.

IIIRC, He was in Afghanistan on June 1st...a few hours after their release. Wonder if he went to the Taliban “Office” in Qatar...the one Obama helped to set up.

Even, and perhaps especially, the RINOs should be very careful when going to work for or making direct deals with the Current Regime. Chuck Hagel was always expendable, and his life expectancy with the Current Regime very likely is measured in days, if not hours.
Kind of like the GIs who were stationed in West Berlin in the bad old days of the Cold War. If the Russians had started anything, they would have been the first casualties.

I think Obama put him there so he could get rid of him. I think I read...First SOD to be filibustered.
