Obama ignored chances to rescue Bergdahl because he WANTED a terror trade to help close down Guantanamo Bay, claim Pentagon sources. “The question is how many of these Taliban guys he can sneak past the goalie while Congress is busy hassling him about the IRS, the VA and Obamacare.” With so many disasters, it’s hard to know which one takes priority.

  • Notice in one of the pictures, Obama is first on the podium for his photo op while someone else is helping a lady get to her spot. Oh, wait. . .I bet the guy with his back to the camera first helped Lady Pants to his/her spot then went back for the more fit women to assist.

  • More destruction by the hidden muslim in the WH. Is it any wonder that Israel has no faith in any thing he or his minions say.

  • Completely idiotic on the part of this lame assed excuse for a chief executive. If he really wanted to close Gitmo, he should put the whole bunch of them on a ship and sail it into a hurricane by "mistake".

  • I think BHO identified with TurdBurglar and wishes that he could escape thru the wire and join the Taliban......

  • Dont forget about the naming of the CIA station chief in Afganishithole ndalsca. The media went apeshit and lawsuits were filed over the Valerie Plame CIA issue. Bush appointed a special investigator.
    Based on limited research, I still cant figure out what she did for the CIA, but what I was able to find out is that it seems like it wasn't much. Nevertheless, democrats (communists) and their media mouth pieces were outraged over the Plame deal even though she was never in any danger as a result. Unlike Obama naming the current station chief.
    There are so many scandals going on, this one simply has passed everyone by. Of course the Obama Suckass Media is letting it die as well. They look like big enough buffoons by creating the myth that is King Barky the Incompetent they dont want to remind anyone about this one too.

    • The problem is that Bush was the victim of fake controversies, but so few of them, that it was easy to focus on them and make a big deal out of them. Obama is responsible for so many real controversies that it's impossible to focus on any one, and the second someone does focus on one, another breaks and diverts attention away.
      Now, there are so many of them, that everyone is just throwing their hands up in the air and saying, "It's just another Obama deal!".

  • Get rid of all the religion of pieces terrorists in Gitmo..Instead send in President lady pants and company to "occupy" the space...

  • I have been saying this since the story first broke! Obama no sooner gets done speaking at the West Point graduation, telling them that he is still focused on closing Gitmo, then he pulls this stunt!
    I believe he's fishing for more kidnappings so he can trade off all the rest of the prisoners and close the base without having to hold one trial, and garner public sympathy for the move!
