Republicans Eating Their Own – Reports that Bergdahl’s Dad is A Republican

So is this a story of Republicans eating their own because they think president Obama would be negatively affected?

You betcha!

The Daily Beast is reporting that Robert Bergdahl, the father of recently released prisoner of war, Bowe Bergdahl, is a Republican.

In June 2010, Robert Bergdahl, the father of released American POW Bowe Bergdahl, gave a speech at an Idaho Republican Party fundraiser. In one of his first public appearances during his son’s five-year captivity, he asked the conservative audience to show compassion for his son’s captors—and, in a twist that foretold the plot of Homeland—he alleged that the United States had killed one of those captor’s children with a drone strike

The Idaho fundraiser was an election year event, and the day’s other speakers—Idaho Senator Jim Risch, then-national-party-chairman Michael Steele, radio host Dennis Prager, and a belligerent stand-up comic named Eric Golub—took the usual shots at President Obama and rallied partisans to donate money to November’s cause.

Pass the salt.

Fox News and the Republicans have been on a feeding frenzy. They have jumped all over this one, knives and forks on hand, banging on the table, accusing Robert of being a Taliban, a Muslim sympathizer, even accusing the man of looking like a Muslim because he refused to cut his beard in protest of his son’s capture.

These people are devouring their own in an attempt to make the president look bad. Can you say ‘sick losers?’
