Prisoner trade by Obama: Malevolent or just Stupid?

Huh? You are the one nit picking words. "It depends on what the meaning of "left behind" is".
No man left behind means no man left behind. Period.
You seem to hate him for a lot of reasons.
The fact is that whatever this soldier did has nothing to do with Obama. The fact that people like you are trying to make this soldier's actions a partisan issue shows how broken the political discourse is in the US.
You want a link to them never doing something?
That people have never qualified the "no man left behind" motto in the past?
You can't prove a negative, but if you can find anyone in the government making statements like that, please let me know.
It sounds like you can't comprehend basic concepts like the ability to prove a negative.
Yeah, it is, and a petulant one at that.....but we know you are a "progressive" and can't be expected to react as if your intellect (or lack thereof) had matured past that age........
He was not left behind, he choose to walk away.
Simple really.
Then he was captured and held hostage by the enemy.
Before this became a favorite of right wing pundits, did you ever heard anyone say "Leave no man behind, unless you think it is his own fault, then **** him, leave him behind".
If the US pulled out of Afghanistan without bringing home this guy, what are the odds that you and all your buddies would be railing against Obama for leaving this POW behind?
Impeach Barack Obama

Allen West is a former member of the House of Representatives and author of "Guardian of the Republic."
This week, on WMALs “Morning on the Mall” radio show with hosts Brian and Larry I was asked a simple question relating to the Taliban prisoner release and impeachment of the president. I responded yes that in this current case, the U.S. House of Representatives should file articles of impeachment against Barack Hussein Obama.
Now before all the detractors go apoplectic here, let me tell you about Article 2 signing statements, their intent, purpose, history, and usage, and the implications for the president’s impeachment.
President Obama used an Article 2 signing statement to deem unconstitutional a measure HE had signed into law contained in the National Defense Authorization Act. The law stated that he must advise Congress within 30 days about any plans to transfer detainees from GITMO. Obama basically stated that this was “unconstitutional” and that his unilateral action fell within his purview. Once again Obama used selective discretion as to what law he feels he must adhere to — in this case it has severe ramifications for our national security.

Meh, I still think they are better than endless Game of Thrones(or things that look like that anyways) gifs.
By a bunch of Canadians on a Canadian forum? I doubt anyone down there really cares about that whether they support Obama or hate him.
Given the way these guys treat prisoners I doubt the US would lose much by writing them off. Im surprised this guy is even alive after being held for years in Afghanistan.
Flood Gates are open, US and Canadian citizens are now targets for prisoner trades.
