My goodness these lefties don't get out much

At the risk of beating the Obama 5/Bergdahl exchange into the ground I must add this one quote from Taranto that so clearly explains just how lost those who govern us are when it comes to the notions of duty, loyalty, honor and indeed citizenship.  These 'citizens' of the world actually don't believe in anything except their own lusts which is why this situation is so perplexing to them.  Read it and laugh while weeping:

The left's blinkered view of military culture is perhaps best summarized by Elias Isquith, a young writer for Salon.com, who yesterday explained the backlash against the Bergdahl deal as follows: "When a member of the military fails to adhere to the far right's rigid formula of what a soldier should be (nationalistic, religious, obedient; conservative) right-wingers . . . come down on them [sic] like a ton of bricks." He cited one example in addition to Bergdahl: John Kerry.

Isquith seems to imply that servicemen are fungible, each entitled to equal respect regardless of conduct. But the bitter criticism of Kerry in 2004 and Bergdahl today would carry no force if it came from mere "right-wingers." It comes, instead, from servicemen and veterans who see the two men as having behaved dishonorably. Once again the left is being undone by its failure to comprehend the centrality of honor to military culture.

No moral center.  No distinction between keeping promises and breaking them.  Bizarre and rather pathetic, don't you think?
