Obama supporters are on hair trigger alert over the whole Bergdahl fiasco. Even the loyal lefty David Shuster is taking flak.
.@AmbassadorRice You said on a Sunday show that Sgt. Bergdahl served the US with "honor and distinction." How so?

Misspeak?
Oh did I say he served with honor and distinction? I meant to say he renounced his citizenship and went AWOL.
Easy mistake to make.
.@Dave_Dial A reporter can't ask the WH and @AmbassadorRice for a clarification without "being part of a right wing drum beat?" Really?

Well, real questions happen so seldom they catch some people off guard.

But back off and see if maybe there’s a YouTube video we can blame.

How about we just say this? Ambassador Rice acted stupidly.
