While Obama vacations at Camp David this weekend before his lavish, multi million dollar vacation in a couple weeks, we still have Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi rotting away in a Mexican jail. He’s been beaten, chained to his bed and starved, and still Obama, Congress and the media doesn’t seem to give a shit. Obama is yet again breaking the law, as U.S. Code, Title 22, Chapter 23, Section 1732 says this about Americans held captive by foreign governments: Of course we know Obama doesn’t care, apparently Congress, including House Republicans don’t care either. U.S. Code, Title 22, Chapter 23, Section 1732. It is entitled, “Release of citizens imprisoned by foreign governments” and reads as follows:
Sgt. Tahmooressi in Mexican jail 111 days |

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 of the President forthwith to demand of that government the reasons of such imprisonment; and if it appears to be wrongful and in violation of the rights of American citizenship, the President shall forthwith demand the release of such citizen, and if the release so demanded is unreasonably delayed or refused, the President shall use such means, not amounting to acts of war and not otherwise prohibited by law, as he may think necessary and proper to obtain or effectuate the release; and all the facts and proceedings relative thereto shall as soon as practicable be communicated by the President to Congress.
