Both Rand Paul, speaking at a Texas Republican Party event, and Miss Louisiana, at the Miss USA competition, had something to say about Obama bringing home U.S. POW Bowe Bergdahl. Who made more sense? Let's find out...
In another amazing display of sheer audacity, Republicans have demanded President Obama apologize for the prisoner swap that freed POW Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl from the Taliban in Afghanistan. Well, in a recent speech, Obama told them where they could shove it.
Republicans are trying their very hardest to scrub from the internet any and all praise, including "thoughts and prayers," for Bowe Bergdahl. Guess they wanted him to come home until Obama spurred the decision to get it done. Apparently, it took more than magic to bring home a captive U.S. soldiers.
No more than a few months after U.S. POW soldier Bowe Bergdahl was captured, Fox News had on guest Ralph Peters who suggested the Taliban would save us the time and trouble if they just executed Bergdahl. Patriotism!
Who was is that said that the United States doesn't negotiate with terrorists? It was Ronald Reagan, and he said it while he was in the middle of selling Hawk missile parts to Iran as part of negotiations with terrorists to return our hostages in Lebanon. It's unsurprising then, that the return of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl is being wrestled into the latest "scandal" for President Barack Obama.
