The attitudes presented by yourself and others are absolutely disgusting!
I really don't care what you think of me. But guess what ... here's what I think right back atchya ... I find the fact that you are letting Obama off the hook on this to be disgusting. He is not the king of America. No POTUS should be breaking the law ... NONE of them. Obama let FIVE terrorists with blood on their hands go free all in exchange for one soldier who deserted his post; caused Americans to die; and who said severely bad things about America and joined the enemy.

NO 'BUT' ... Obama broke the law. PERIOD
The law is in place for a reason. Obama had NO RIGHT to go around it. And now, because of Obama's actions, the terrorists will think that they can take American hostages and get their terrorist buddies released from prison. Obamas actions will cause more Americans to lose their lives ... cause more terrorist actions to happen.
President Obama set aside his veto threat and late Wednesday signed a defense bill that imposes restrictions on transferring detainees out of military prisons in Afghanistan and Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. But he attached a signing statement claiming that he has the constitutional power to override the limits in the law.
...
Despite his objections, Mr. Obama signed the bill, saying its other provisions on military programs were too important to jeopardize. Early Thursday, shortly after midnight, the White House released the signing statement in which the president challenged several of its provisions.
For example, in addressing the new limits on the transfers from Parwan, Mr. Obama wrote that the provision “could interfere with my ability as commander in chief to make time-sensitive determinations about the appropriate disposition of detainees in an active area of hostilities.”
One problem i would like to point out with this is that Bergdahl could speak Pashto so he would have been using both languages and he would have been easily able to ask for the necessities if this statement were true.
At the end of the brief event, the soldier’s father, Bob Bergdahl, recited the most frequent phrase in the Koran — “Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim” —which means “In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Compassionate.”
After Bergdahl finished his statement and his praise for Allah, Obama hugged him. Read more: dailycaller.com...

'… five murdering terrorists … .' What did they perpetrate?
A reversal in America's policy of not negotiating with terrorist which in turn made the world more dangerous.

Obama let FIVE ]suspects with unconfirmed reports of blood on their hands go free all in exchange for one soldier who disappeared under unknown circumstances.
he may have said some bad things about your country, but no one knows if he actually joined the enemy.
A pretty disgusting action, considering you have no idea what happened to him.
Obama may have broken the law, yes, but ...
