Oliver North Of All People Blasts Obama For Financing Terrorist Orgs In Bergdahl Swap

TOM KLUDT – JUNE 4, 2014, 10:21 AM EDT

Naturally, Lt. Col. Oliver North has plenty to say about the release of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl.

North, the former Reagan aide-turned-conservative commentator best-known for his central role in the Iran-Contra scandal in the 1980s, was on a mission Tuesday to hand down his indictment of the prisoner swap that secured Bergdahl's rescue.

Speaking to former Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R-AZ) on his Newsmax program, North demanded to know if a ransom was paid to terrorists in order to execute the swap.

“Was there a ransom paid?" North said. "Did the government of the United States, either directly or indirectly, finance a terrorist organization?”

Or has he?

It must be wonderful to be able to completely wipe out those ornery cells in the corner of our brains to make us so utterly pure.

Not just because of his central role in Iran-Contra, which should disqualify him from opening his fly-trap for anything about cutting deals with terrorists, but that a Marine officer would advocate leaving a man behind is just too unworthy for words.
