The Taliban is a faction of the war in Afghanistan, not terrorists, so that this is a basic prisoner exchange, and there will likely be more negotiations.
I am not sure what website is this, was on drudge, but pretty much described everything I already said about this guy. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/brothers-arms-bash-bowe-bergdahl-traitor-article-1.1814106
Ah, Rambo III, one of my favorite installments in that beloved franchise. The fact that John and Col. Trautman basically take on the entire Soviet army (tanks included) with little more than a knife and one gun is reason enough to love it.
At first, I was at least happy for the soldier. Now it looks like he is a deserter and muslim convert, who possibly trained his "captors". Plus, 6 solders were killed, trying to find him.
Nope, I heard his father saying something like "Allah Akbar" in WH. He said something else, but I call all that stuff Allah Akbar. So, don't come after me for being inaccurate. Also, I heard couple of guys who served with him saying things like that. At this point, there is no question that he was a deserter, except of course for Susan Rice, who called him a hero.
Yes. But you're talking to someone who takes Matt Drudge, Fred Phelps, and Glenn Beck seriously. So even though it's only a right-wing blogosphere thing with no relation to any real facts at any time, she thinks it's real. Because she doesn't know how to begin to tell fact from fiction. Just check her history here.
In the mean time, youaredumb.net has a hilarious take on it. (http://www.youaredumb.net/node/2448)
You are really funny. So you don't take Drudge seriously, but at the same your source is some obscure blog called "youaredumb", seriously? Youmustbedumb. For your information Phelbs was an enemy of right wingers. You are totally hopeless case.
In response to a comment about your problems in telling fact from fiction and vetting sources, you mistake commentary *that is clearly marked as commentary* for a source of facts.
Isn't that lovely to play tolerance sitting in US. I don't think the women, convicted according to sharia law to death through hanging for converting to Christianity, shares your warm feelings. I am not talking about you personally, I don't know anything about you.
This article is lame attempt to make things look better. 1. Terrorist are people who try to convey their political message through terror, they could be in some occasions representatives of a government. 2. He was, in best case scenario, a hostage, because he was a deserter, wasn't captured in a battle. 3. Since when an Israeli government is an example for US. Nothing against Israel, but who cares what they do?
Yeah, I'm a bit gobsmacked by the whole thing. It seemed so sudden, although I'm sure it wasn't as sudden as it seemed to the general public... but I'm just left thinking, "What the heck just happened here?" :\
Obama has been letting his Love & Happiness flag fly at the end of his presidency. In addition to this, there is the big initiative on climate change, and there is also the promise of letting go a lot of non-violent prisoners who are up on drug offenses. It's as though he wants to be all the Hope & Change he promised to be before his term is up.

Is that strictly a right-wing blogosphere thing?
