Here is a link...

The part of this link I like..



quote:

Feinstein also said leaders of the House and Senate Intelligence panels were almost unanimously against a prisoner trade when it came up in 2011.

She said the chairmen and ranking Republicans of the “connected committees” spent a lot of time in 2011 reviewing the possibility of a prisoner swap and came out firmly opposed to releasing senior militants from the prison camp at Guantanamo Bay.

“There were very strong views and they were virtually unanimous against the trade,” she said.

I'll put this here. The only thing that should matter, and the only BHO should be judged upon, is the process and protocol.


All the other shite should be left to the powers that be to charge him with any desertion charges, or whatever. BHO shouldn't be judged upon the character of the gentleman, he should be judged on his refusal to follow protocol.

If everyone gets too hard on about the guy being a deserter, what have you, then this escapade will yield zero results. It has to stay on task.
