If the soldier is released, Obama's weak.
If the soldier was killed, Obama's weak.
Actually, the truth is this.
Every single day conservatives undermine our country's leaders, even on the world stage, and that means that they are the ones who truly make America look weak in the eyes of the world.
Consequently, we should make conservatives honorary anti-American rhetorical terrorists since they aid and abet the enemy so much and so often.
But when bed wetters undermine the president it's "patriotic".
BTW, 24 hours ago you didn't know shit about that soldier nor did you care to.
Spare us your bullshit empathy.
Since I myself am a Veteran, I care more about Veterans than all the conservatives in America who have never served their country and think that patriotism means being armchair shock and awe cheerleaders as others fight the battles they support while watching Fox News with a waving American Flag in the corner of the screen.
That means you don't know shit about what I care about.
As an aside, while I was at McDonald's this morning drinking my coffee, I saw a young man in civilian clothes who was wearing a camo cap which indicated he was once in the US Marines (I was once Regular Army and had never served in combat). I noticed a small pin on the side of his cap that was obviously a purple heart. I engaged him in conversation and discovered that he had been wounded in battle during two tours in Iraq and one tour in Afghanistan. I thanked him for his service. I wonder how many people never even notice the pin.
