/dev/null Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 I was channel surfing last night and when I passed Fox News I saw Megyn Kelly was interviewing Jen Psaki. After the double Yeah I would moment I watched for a minute or two I know Psaki has got a job to do and this Bergdahl issue is not a defensible case, but she was getting seriously pwnd by Kelly. I almost felt sorry for Psaki
Nanker Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Common man, Bergdal is clearly the victim here. He was captured, tortured (even worse than Abu Ghraib - if you can imagine that), went hungry, lacked for showers, toothpaste, clean socks and u-trow. Hasn't he suffered enough? He went without email for five years fer cripe's sake. All he wanted to do was to help the Afghanis. I was channel surfing last night and when I passed Fox News I saw Megyn Kelly was interviewing Jen Psaki. After the double Yeah I would moment I watched for a minute or two I know Psaki has got a job to do and this Bergdahl issue is not a defensible case, but she was getting seriously pwnd by Kelly. I almost felt sorry for Psaki Never feel sorry for her. Leave her in tears at the door and just keep walking away. She'll come crawling back. Remember, a Psaki is like a linoleum floor. If you lay it right the first time, after that you can walk all over it.

Vapid, and utterly useless.

B-Man Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) Why Bowe Bergdahl Matters by Erik Erikson Barack Obama traded five Taliban soldiers for Bowe Bergdahl. Despite State Department statements to the contrary, we know at least one of those Taliban headed back out to kill Americans. But the Bergdahl situation matters at a different level than that. It matters because the White House, when confronted by who Bergdahl was, sought to smear the people who pointed out he was a deserter instead of dealing with reality. The smears included attacking honorable American soldiers who dared to point out their colleague was a deserter. Megyn Kelly had Bergdahl’s fellow soldiers, Evan Buetow, Cody Full, Gerald Sutton, and others, on her television show shortly after the news of the Bergdahl trade. Kelly and the soldiers came under withering attacks from the left and people inside the Obama Administration. Deputy Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Brandon Friedman, suggested the soldiers were psychopaths. Barack Obama himself used Bergdahl’s return as a photo op to suggest he was acting as a great Commander in Chief. {snip} Even now they are spinning rapidly to claim it would have been irresponsible to leave a man behind and that, somehow, no one knew he was a deserter. And that’s just it. This is why Bergdahl matters. It was known at the time from his fellow soldiers and others what had happened. Instead of dealing with the reality, the White House and its defenders chose to attack the character of American soldiers, members of the media who challenged their narrative, and conservatives. This is another example of the left being so invested in Barack Obama that they’d deny reality and let terrorists loose rather than admit this should never have happened in the first place. And the punchline is this. The same President who let loose five Taliban for one deserter and possible would be Taliban is telling us to trust him negotiating with Iran. http://www.redstate.com/2015/03/26/why-bowe-bergdahl-matters/ .

IDBillzFan Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Why Bowe Bergdahl Matters by Erik Erikson I'd love to hear what Obama thinks of the Army's decision to charge Bergdahl, but he's...y'know...busy again in Florida this week.
B-Man Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Cover of today's Boston Herald.............. You think that they would have dared to print this in 2009 ?
DC Tom Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Cover of today's Boston Herald.............. You think that they would have dared to print this in 2009 ? Isn't the Herald a conservative rag along the lines of the NY Post?
Magox Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Isn't the Herald a conservative rag along the lines of the NY Post? Yes, yes it is
DC Tom Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Yes, yes it is Then I can easily believe them printing that cover in 2009 (aside from, y'know, this not even happening back then...)
IDBillzFan Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Cover of today's Boston Herald.............. You think that they would have dared to print this in 2009 ? I can understand them going after Barry for completely botching the Bergdahl swap, but dammit...I am drawing a line when you go after Neil Diamond.
B-Man Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 I can understand them going after Barry for completely botching the Bergdahl swap, but dammit...I am drawing a line when you go after Neil Diamond. Perhaps we could combine the stories ? Which Neil song best exemplifies the Obama Administration ? "Love on the Rocks" ?.............. "Yesterday's Songs" ?................ "Forever in Blue Jeans" ? Certainly not "America" .
DC Tom Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Certainly not "America" . NOT? "On the boats and on the planes, they're comin' to America." It's a song about immigration. Seems pretty damned exemplifying to me.
B-Man Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 NOT? "On the boats and on the planes, they're comin' to America." It's a song about immigration. Seems pretty damned exemplifying to me. Tom, I stand corrected. .
Doc Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 What's worse than the 5 terrorists freed is the soldiers who died looking for him.
DC Tom Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Tom, I stand corrected. . I should be apologizing to you, for obfuscating the song with specifics and concrete examples.
Deranged Rhino Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 I can understand them going after Barry for completely botching the Bergdahl swap, but dammit...I am drawing a line when you go after Neil Diamond. (I wish I could find the shorter clip for just the line... but the whole scene is funny. The relevant part starts at 2:35)
Nanker Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 "There are two kinds of people in this world - those who like Neil Diamond, and those who don't." Classic!
