#4 Actually, this shows how desperate the administration is; the only thing they can do to get rid of the previous scandal is to get a new one that's also in the process of blowing up in their faces. (and if you didn't notice the dead veterans in that one too you haven't been paying attention).

#6 His squad mates are all coming out with the truth that Bergdahl was a deserter. How the hell is Obama going to spin that? Even the leftist press can't bury a turd this big.
