Former Vice President Dick Cheney had harsh words for President Obama over the recent Bergdahl negotiation.
Appearing on Fox News’ The Kelly File, Cheney said "I think they [the Obama Administration] have in fact negotiated with terrorists and I don't think they got a good deal."
He explained that the negotiation is a risky deal likely to spur more violent activity. "This so called trade for Bergdahl with five of the top Taliban terrorists strikes me as part and parcel of that same unwise policy, " Cheney said, referring to President Obama’s shaky foreign policy.
Cheney expressed his frustration at the administration’s decision to release "five of the most deadly terrorists that we had at Guantanamo," telling Kelly "I think the whole transaction represents really bad staff work" by the Obama Administration.
He foreshadowed that there is "a distinct possibility" that the five recently released prisoners will return to battle. "I think the odds are that they will in fact do that and we’ll end up paying another kind of price because of the transaction that’s been negotiated here," the former Vice President predicted.
