"Ralph Peters says the White House was “blindsided” by the reaction. Here he is in NRO:
The president, too, appears stunned. He has so little understanding of (or interest in) the values and traditions of our troops that he and his advisers really believed that those in uniform would erupt into public joy at the news of Bergdahl’s release — as D.C. frat kids did when Osama bin Laden’s death was trumpeted.
This is exactly why an executive has people he needs to listen to, to avoid stepping in such giant piles of his own doo.
Instead, Obama put his hands over his ears and shouted LALALALALALALA while arranging the release of five of the most dangerous killers in the world in exchange for a deserter.
If Obama was blindsided, it’s because he chose to be willfully and inexcusably blind.
