35. I am glad for this strong statement by General Dempsey.

On Morning Joe this morning Mika said BOTH Democrats (she said "some Democrats) and Republicans were against Sgt. Bergdahls's release. No one challenged her statement. But then, we have the likes of Sen. Diane Feinstein who lends some credence to Mika's claim. Overwhelmingly, it is the Republican hate mongers who are against his release, but the few Democrats are giving these Republicans cover.

I am truly disgusted by the ugly, hateful mob that has claimed self-righteous hate as the truest of all American "values." This mob has been nurtured and emboldened by the "stupid is good" example set by Bush II. Let's do our best to defeat them in November.
