(http://images.politico.com/global/2012/08/120806_claire_mccaskill-ap_605.jpg)

Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) on Wednesday evening lashed out at “un-American” rush to judgment over the military record of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, following an all-senators briefing on the prisoner swap that led to the soldier’s release.
One of the last senators to leave the two-hour meeting with administration officials, McCaskill said she hopes that eventually all the facts surrounding Bergdahl’s service are declassified “in fairness to the soldier and his family.”

Watch.....they're going to claim he was a double agent.
It's their only hope, Obi-wan!
-
What do you mean rush to judgement? Six people died looking for Sgt Bergdahl and put many more soldiers at risk .Sgt Bergdahl may have given intelligence to the Taliban to how kill our soldiers. The Administration flagrantly broke the law by not notifying certain members of Congress, especially those in the defense,intelligence and foreign relations committees and the leadership of both parties. The President, Susan Rice, John Kerry and Chuck Hagel should be held accountable for their actions.

The WH admin came to Cap Hill and had closed door briefings for over 2hrs tonight answering questions....well it seems a lot of the Dems [at least publicly] bought their version of events....now it turns political and everyone retreats into their political corners......How these RATS can constantly defend anything Obama does is beyond me...

The President is 4 weeks to late giving a briefing. When Dianne Feinstein is hopping mad that she was not briefed several weeks ago about this.

Aides to President Obama say anyone who criticizes Sgt. Bergdahl or the release of the 5 Taliban war criminals -- must hate the president.
In other words -- you're a racist.

In my case they are right! I do hate him! But it has nothing to do with his race and everything to do with HIS hatred for MY way of life!

There are some Dems like Senator Feinstein has not forgiven the President. She is still steaming that she was not informed. She should have been informed because she is head of the Senate Intelligence Committes

she's steamed because she wasn't told, not because of what they did.

Nah! She knows and just doesn't care!

Both sides of aisle are pretty much in consensus that they were not informed according to law

House Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon has already pledged to hold hearings on the prisoner swap, saying his "impression" is that the president broke the law when he failed to give notice.

again, it doesn't matter what she says, what empty words issue from her mouth; feinstein is a democrat, which means she doesn't give a rat's patootie about the Constitution - it's an impediment to their collective aspirations of totalitarianism - she's only miffed because Obama snubbed her and didn't make her feel like "one of the guys" by cutting her in on the action.

Its not Democrat or Republican, its the Constitution. The President overstep his bounds.

we're talking past each other. I know what it is. I also know that Feinstein does not care about the Constitution. All she cares about is power and by not telling her Obama insulted her because he snubbed her own lust for power. She uses the Constitution as a tool to accomplish what she wants and when it becomes inconvenient she drops it and steps all over it.

But Constutionally, and as a member of a committee and Congress she has a right to be angry. She can use the Constitution anyway she wants unless you want to amend the Consstitution.

This is what Saxby Chambliss from Georgia had to say:

Chambliss Statement on Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl
.S. Sen. Saxby Chambliss, vice chairman of the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, released the following statement on the release of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl and the Taliban Five on Saturday:
"After five long years, I am pleased to join the American people today in welcoming home Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl.
"However, the United States has a long-standing policy of not negotiating with terrorists, and I am deeply troubled the Obama administration not only broke this policy, but also did so without the notification or consent of Congress, as required by law.
"Six months ago, I was assured by the administration they would not consider the release of these senior Taliban leaders without consulting Congress. Today, they violated that commitment. The security assurances the United States has been given regarding these terrorists is feeble at best, and I fear it is only a matter of time before they resume their terrorist activities. These men are not soldiers; they are dangerous terrorists and President Obama should be treating them as such."

It seems both the ranking member and the senior member of Intelligence are both on the same page.
-
So the soldiers and former soldiers criticizing Bergdahl are "un-American?"
I'm not sure you want to go there, Claire Only the GOP could mess up getting her out of office by running a dumpster fire like Todd Akin.

Of course, but that's irrelevant. She's mad because she wasn't let in on the deal - she'd be mad whether she had the "right" or not.
-
It won't make any difference, but here is what I sent to Mccaskill on Twitter.
@clairecmc - Are you calling the soldiers criticizing the record of Bergdahl "un-American?" #bergdahl #berghazi
-

It doesn't really matter one way or another what Feinstein says or thinks.
What can be controlled is calling out McCaskill for calling the soldiers criticizing Bergdahl "un-American." That angle resonates with the public, not worrying about legal mumbo jumbo that 3/4 of the dummies in the USA know nothing about, let alone care about. Debating what Feinstein thinks or actions she won't take are a very peripheral issue.
-

I would think that the House ranking intelligence member(Congressman C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger)would want a piece of a pie and spotlight. I think Nancy Pelsoi would like apiece of the pie. The media hog Nancy Pelosi would gladly take the spotlight of freeing an American and claim the Democratic Party did it. She would be in a state of euphoria to claim that she help free an American. Both of them were not informed.

It's worth getting an account. Not to put your stuff out there - 99% of that is wasted bandwidth - but I use it to follow about 200 different news channels. They tweet stuff first, before they put it up on the web site or print it. It is literally up to the second reports on different stories.

I believe if you want to spill your guts to someone get a analyst for an LDS person its someone in the priesthood.The LDS already have their special analysts. You may have to pay for it. No one is looking at your record .Its totally confidential.
