Things that are simple to predict: Balls thrown up will fall down. Cute babies grow up to be obnoxious teenagers. And if President Obama is under attack by the Right Wing Sarah Palin WILL pile on.

So as you know President Obama recently freed an Army Sergent who has been held captive by the Taliban for five years.

And as you also know this has been widely viewed as a good thing by those who don't already hate everything the President does.

Cue the angry Facebook post: 

Barak Obama just released Islamic terrorists from GITMO, exchanging the murderers for a soldier who ended up in enemy hands five years ago amidst unexplained circumstances. Obama glowingly suggests now that he succeeded in negotiating with terrorists to seal the deal, violating America's agreement with our allies that we would not be so reckless, short-sighted and stupid as to negotiate with terrorists – and now these Islamists who hate us are free to go about their business of killing us. Meanwhile, we have a U.S. Marine detained in Mexico who is ignored by Obama – it's like someone said: "our Marine is the ONLY one Obama won't let cross the border." Obama needs to hop on Air Force One and visit our neighbors to the south to seal THAT deal because surely the Commander-in-Chief lives up to his word and 230 years of U.S. Military ethos promising we "leave no one behind." 

You may remember that the Marine Palin is referring to did NOT get captured by the Taliban while in Afghanistan, but instead was arrested by the Mexican authorities after crossing their border with a car full of guns.

So much the same don't you think?

Interesting how Palin is always going on about protecting the sovereignty of red states from the Federal government, but has no problem with the President hopping on Air Force One and telling Mexico that their laws don't matter because the guy they arrested has become a cause celebre among American conservatives.

Palin goes on to extensively quote from an article over at Breitbart, the contents of which I will spare you, but suffice it to say that President Obama simply cannot do ANYTHING right.

You know if this had happened while President Bush was still in office, the Right Wing would be praising the crap out of him and suggesting that we do away with term limits and elect him for yet another tour of duty in the White House. (After which the country would be nothing more than a smoldering hole in the ground.)

But because the black guy did it, he must be attacked relentlessly and accused of damaging America's reputation here and abroad.

And by the way check out who was for releasing Sgt. Bergdahl before she was against it.

What? Hypocrisy! Say it ain't so!

Speaking of Palin, and hypocrisy, our old friend Goeffrey Dunn has posted a HuffPo piece taking those who have recently tried to resurrect her image to task.
