In other words... he declined to comment.

"Leaders of the U.S. intelligence community and military were opposed to freeing five senior Taliban commanders in exchange for Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl when the White House began exploring the prisoner swap in 2011 and 2012." http://time.com/2818827/taliban-bergdahl-pow-release-objections-white-house/

You need to read beyond the WH talking points...

Do you have any comments on current events ? ? ?

The truth is emerging: http://thelead.blogs.cnn.com/2014/06/03/team-leader-bowe-bergdahl-wanted-to-talk-to-taliban/ http://ace.mu.nu/

Timely observation from this morning's news : http://www.mystatesman.com/news/business/surge-in-property-tax-bills-spurs-push-to-reform-t/ngBXt/ "It's not because I don't like paying taxes," said Gardner, who attended both meetings "I have voted for every park, every library, all the school improvements, for light rail, for anything that will make this city better. But now I can't afford to live here anymore." - Austin American-Statesman

Your right to be an asshole ? ? ?

Your sorry attempt to dismiss the sacrifice of these men is beyond disgusting. Meet MSG Mark Allen and his beautiful family: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1430720357191028&set=a.1430148537248210.1073741827.1430148203914910&type=1&theater

Bet the families of these men would love to have their American sons back: Lt Darryn Andrews, 34 Private 1st Class Matthew Martinek, 20 Staff Sergeant Clayton Bowen, 29 Private First Class Morris Walker, 23 Staff Sergeant Kurt Curtiss, 27 Staff Sergeant Michael Murphrey, 25 http://time.com/2809352/bowe-bergdahl-deserter-army-taliban/

Maybe you should try sticking to the actual topic...

Spurious charges of racism are so last year, you need to start falsely accusing Conservatives of sexism and misogyny if you are going to carve out a victory for Clinton and Warren in 2016. Try to keep up...

You just gave yourself away... :rofl:

Really ? ? ? I would love to see that research.

A wise investor looks for financial evidence of a positive return.

We are investing $65 million dollars of taxpayer money based on nothing more than possibilities ? ? ? So much for economic security...

There is NO evidence that commercial service will increase our industrial tax base... none.

This thread was political from the very start, as it began with Daily Kos propaganda.

Playing politics in the café...

Another political topic in the café.

If you oppose commercialization you are a racist ? ? ? :rofl:

It is a disgraceful situation and the entire blame belongs in Washington DC on both sides of the aisle... The only reason we are seeing this flood of poor children is because they received news of an invitation. Raise your voices now, because our sneaky representatives are planning to act on amnesty this summer. We stopped this nonsense once before under Bush, and we can do it again, this influx is draining our fiscal resources and harming our children's future. Contact your congresscritters today and tell them NO talk of AMNESTY until our border is SECURE ! ! !

You bet your sweet bippy that I would be the first to file suit if an agent of the government attempted to intimidate me while I was expressing my God given first amendment rights...

That is a great plan... if your goal is invite another lawsuit.

There is NO evidence that commercial service will increase our industrial tax base... none.

I personally witnessed Chairman Austin in action at the Burnt Hickory Toll Road meeting of Nov 2011, and it was the single most arrogant and condescending display I have ever seen from any politician...
