The Patriot Post® · The 'Time of Obama'

Wall Street Journal columnist Bret Stephens writes about Bowe Bergdahl’s release, “Article 85 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice states: ‘Any person found guilty of desertion or attempt to desert shall be punished, if the offense is committed in time of war, by death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct.’ But wait: We are not ‘in time of war.’ We are in Time of Obama. In Time of Obama, dereliction of duty is heroism, releasing mass murderers with American blood on their hands is a good way to start a peace process, negotiating with terrorists is not negotiating with terrorists, and exchanging senior Taliban commanders for a lone American soldier is not an incentive to take other Americans hostage but rather proof that America brings its people home.”
