Bush Now Being Blamed For Obama Breaking The Law On Terrorist Deal In a recent television interview on MSNBC, Carol Rosenberg, a reporter for the Miami Herald, told Andrea Mitchell of MSNBC that she was perplexed by the criticism from Congress over President Obamas recent negotiations with terrorists. Apparently, the thought of releasing five Taliban detainees from Guantanamo Bay in exchange for an American deserter, Bowe Bergdahl, is not big news to her. Rosenberg argues that the White House has been hinting at the deal, and that it has in fact been in the works for a few years. She claims that it is not surprising that Congress was never officially consulted. Rosenberg does admit, however, that the negotiations took place at an extraordinarily rapid pace. She also speculated that because of the delicate nature of the exchange, the President most likely had legitimate reasons for not informing Congress until the deal was already in progress. The White House and Pentagon intentionally bypassed the 30 day statutory notice requirement that was signed by the President just last year. Obama used executive privilege to avoid the process. According to Rosenberg, Obama was following a precedent that she claims was established by the George Bush Administration. What do you think of Rosenbergs comments?
