Lol, Afghanistan is a large country brah. With Gps trackers in their peckers a drone could take care of them by this weekend.

I get that. My point being is that we know exactly what they are going and if the plan is to take them out then there will be plenty of chances before they disappear. Drone strike the truck they drive away form the exchange in once our guys are in the clear.

I'm not too political and mostly avoid news because the media sucks. But this latest story seems like the Republicans' new fetish to attack Obama about. Can someone provide cliffs?

cus obama is a tool, a joke.
and only president because of affirmative action, reverse racism, and populism
 
What makes me madder than the Bergdahl story is the Tahmooresi story. Why in all holy hell have we not gotten him home yet? Insane.
 
Well, as somebody that doesn't believe politics is much more than a PR game......that's all this looks like to me. Why now? With how happy the Taliban seems with the swap, it's kind of obvious this dude could have been home years ago if a similar offer was made. Seems like the VA medical issues got to them and they felt like they needed something positive involving Vets to take the heat off. They basically completely trash veterans in every "Domestic Terrorist" warning or paper that comes out. Their contempt for them is obvious and they aren't fooling anybody.

There's no question that those guys will go back to fighting in the Middle East and get more bodies connected to their name. I think the bigger issue here in US though is the Illegals that are convicted of serious crimes that the system just releases back onto the streets.

I'm guessing they said it's because Obama?

Of course they did. In Utah everything is Obama's fault. If it rains it's Obama. Dead lawn? Obama. You got the flu? Obama.

I am not looking to lay blame as much as wonder why we can get a deal done with the Taliban but not Mexico?
 
I bet that soldiers friends and family are glad that they negotiated for his release..... as well as the soldier himself.

Seems like alls well that ends well to me, and so far this has turned out tk be a happy ending

Unless you or your family in Afghanistan is on the enemy list of the five dudes that just got released. Then you are in a world of hurt. But screw 'em for being camel jockeys. They should have been born somewhere else and then they wouldn't be in danger. Also, they brought this upon themselves for sending their girls to school.

Oh spare us the drama.

Glad he is back, regardless of how it happened. Would be curious to see what other options they had or even discussed for getting him though.
