A Fox reporter asked Psaki if you can make a deal for Bowe Bergdahl, why not for Andrew Tahmoressi, the Marine being held in Mexico?

Via Fox News:

Fox News Q: Just a quick follow up on Matt’s question. You mentioned because Sergeant Bergdahl is a member of the military you went after him. If you have a Marine reservist in Mexico, why can’t you do a similar swap for him?

MS. PSAKI: I understand the desire to make comparisons, but we wouldn’t compare them.

This is — it was a Marine [sic] who was taken while in combat, and you’re talking about a situation of an individual who the Mexican authorities are accusing of violating the law.

Fox News Q: But I’m sure we have five cartel members or somebody in jail we could swap in exchange for this Marine. Would that be a good — MS. PSAKI: Thank you for your advice, Lucas (sp), but every situation is different. Do you have another question?

Let me count the ways this is offensive:
-Bergdahl was not a Marine, he was Army. Perhaps Psaki doesn’t know the difference…
-He also wasn’t “taken in combat”. This is the Obama regime talking point, obviously settled upon because they all are using it. He walked away, in a clearly premeditated manner after sending his possessions home, sending a email to his dad saying how disgusted he was with America and reportedly calling the next day saying he had deserted.
-So the actual Marine, Andrew Tahmoressi, who was a hero, was wounded for it and suffered injuries which may have contributed to his disorientation, is now just an “individual” accused of “violating the law”.

Priorities. Obviously, Tahmoressi is not as important as a deserter.
