#13 Hope Hagel hires a food taster or car starter. And stays away from parks and light aircraft. |

#9 Rambler; that is hilarious but plausible that Obama first heard about it as he was reading the TelePrompTer. |

#7 Actually, the first time O knew anything about the Bergdahl swap was when he saw himself on CNN announcing it with Bowe's parents. |

#6 If hypothetically the US government were to lean really hard on Qatar's leadership, wouldn't it be possible to make them return the Taliban 5 to US custody. Why wouldn't they actually do this? They could humiliate the Taliban before a global audience. 'We don't negotiate with terrorists. We cheat them!' they could say. Wouldn't this turn into a big boost for Obama's popularity? Unless this really was about appeasing the Taliban and the release was a cover story, why indeed wouldn't they annul the agreement? |

#4 How long before some erstwhile bus victim stands up and says FU! This is what happened! And spills the beans on all of this corruption? |

#3 Yes, Chuck the sock puppet did it! Bad Chuck! (hits with rubber chicken) Bad Chuck! I've heard they're trying to build a jacked-up 4wheel drive version of a DC bus, so it can go anywhere, and there will be plenty of room under it when they get there. |

#2 The regime appears to be in total meltdown. From one commenter: “I make no apologies for it. It was a unanimous decision among MY principals in MY government, and a view that was shared by MY Joint Chiefs of Staff. This is something I would do again and I will continue to do whenever I have an opportunity” – |

#1 Once again the Chosen One chooses to pass the buck to a luckless bagholder. Chuck Hagel, welcome to the club. |
