This support an earlier Post by Ms Scott - Who Is This Man In The White House - A Joke For Sure

You may recall that a few weeks ago, President Obama spoke of three former Presidents making prisoner swaps at the end of wars that took place on their watch, "much like his swap" he said convincingly.

CNSNews.com carried this quote, “This is what happens at the end of wars,” President Barack Obama boasted Tuesday when he was asked about swapping American Army Sgt. Deserter for five vicious Taliban terrorists. "That was true for George Washington... That was true for Abraham Lincoln and that was true for FDR. That’s been true of every combat situation, that at some point, you make sure that you try to get your folks back... And that’s the right thing to do.”

Really?

That statement blatantly demonstrates that the most powerful man in the World and term President of the United States lacks even a grade school level of knowledge of American History; specifically, history as it relates to three of  his rather critical predecessors. It shows me that we have essentially elected a foreigner who has no understanding of the very country that he reigns supreme over.

Allow me to expound:

The Revolutionary War ended in 1783... George Washington did not become president until six years later in 1789.   

Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in mid April of 1865. The Civil War ended the following month. He was still dead at that time. No deals were made to exchange prisoners after the war. All prisoners were simply freed.  

FDR died of a stroke before the end of WWII. You'll recall that Harry S. Truman made the decision to drop two nuclear bombs on Japan, ending World War II. We made no deals for prisoners. We went in and released them when necessary...

If any Conservative President had made such an uninformed statement we'd never hear the end of it. None of the Presidents that Obama noted were in office at the ends of those wars, making it impossible for them to make any sort of prisoner swaps, let alone the 5 for 1; plus unspecified cash; for a deserter and traitor by President "57 States".

It should be pointed out that countless deserters and traitors were shot or hung during all three of the aforementioned wars...

What amazes me even more than the ignorance of the President is that he has somehow managed to surround himself with a staff that is just as clueless.
