Like a middle schooler with a crush, Fox News is doodling hearts in their notebooks over their newest right-wing hunk, former Marine Sergeant, Andrew Tahmooressi. Unfortunately for Fox, as with other crushes, like Sarah Palin, Cliven Bundy, Ted Nugent and a host of other very flawed conservative heroes, Tahmooressi’s story appears less than honorable.
The story began in March. Tahmooressi, 25, allegedly crossed the Mexican border by accident. He claims he missed his exit and crossed from San Diego into Tijuana, despite the fact that he had earlier in the day, walked across the same border, then later, went back to his truck and drove across. Once in Mexico, he was stopped by authorities, who found a fully loaded AR-15, a chrome-plated .45 caliber pistol, a 12-vague shotgun, extra clips for the rifle and pistol and 457 rounds of ammunition. He’s now serving time in jail in Mexico.
That means when he walked back across the border to his truck, he was already as far south as it is possible to be and still be in the U.S. The second problem is the San Ysidro crossing is the busiest land border crossing in the world. It is large, well-marked and brightly lit at night on both sides. Even had he been driving south on I-5, which we now know he wasn’t, I-5 is a multilane freeway with numerous signs and ample opportunities to exit and turn around. Even had he somehow missed all of these, there are clearly marked turnaround lines only a few yards from the border.
Of course, Fox is blaming President Obama for the fact that Tahmooressi is in a Mexican jail, saying,
When justifying the release of five vicious Taliban terrorists detained at “Gitmo” in exchange for U.S. soldier Bowe Bergdahl, the president said, “We don’t leave our people behind.” He was subsequently accused of violating a law requiring him to notify Congress thirty days before releasing any Gitmo detainees.Apparently breaking the law is no problem for the Obama administration. He has often bragged, “If Congress won’t act, I will. I have a pen and a phone.” In other words, he is willing to issue Executive Orders to dictate what he wants done.
Fox calls Tahmooressi’s detainment “wrongful” and “unjust” and cites a law which states, ‘Whenever it is made known to the President that any citizen of the United States has been unjustly deprived of his liberty by or under the authority of any foreign government, it shall be the duty…’
Regardless of what Fox says, Tahmooressi has not been detained wrongfully or unjustly.He broke Mexican law and the penalty for which is incarceration. He may have even broken California concealed carry laws. His attorney is trying to make the case the the search of his truck was illegal but his odds aren’t good.
now this is really trademark republican looking for anything to thwart the DEMS not convinced their voter suppression and ID laws ad purging's and gerrymandering will work they seek other things of law breakers, criminals of various sorts and ne4r'do wells, racist and bigots and all around frauds you know those of the criteria needed to be a republican.
think about it if another of another race had did what he did with all those crossings ICE, FBI, BORDER PATROL, NAT'L GUARD AND REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS WOULD BE ALL OVER FOX AND BLAMING PRES. but this guy they choose to make their latest poster boy for gov't failure the gov't failur3e of course is them and their congress.
