The White House recently responded to the online petition to demand the release of U.S.M.C. Sgt. Tahmooressi, still sitting in a Mexican prison after 5 months and being completely ignored by his Commander In Chief.
As expected, Obama still refuses to do anything to help our Marine.
The U.S. State Department continues to provide extensive consular assistance to Mr. Tahmooressi, and will do so until his case is resolved. As in all cases when a U.S. citizen is arrested overseas, our goal is to see that Mr. Tahmooressi is treated fairly during the judicial process with the hope that he can receive the support, both emotional and medical, that he may require now and at the conclusion of the proceedings.
Mexico is one of the United States’ most important partners. We have close economic and cultural ties, and we work closely with them on numerous sensitive issues. While we will not go into detail about our private diplomatic discussions on this case, U.S. officials, including Secretary of State John Kerry, have spoken to Mexican officials at the highest levels regarding Mr. Tahmooressi’s case.
Mexican authorities have been very willing to engage on this issue. They have provided prompt and continued consular access and visitations. As a result, the State Department has been able to provide regular updates on Mr. Tahmooressi’s condition to his family, Members of Congress, and the press.
We respect the rule of law and expect the judicial process of sovereign nations to protect other U.S. citizens who might find themselves in similar circumstances in the future. We will continue to monitor the case and work with the Mexican authorities as this case proceeds through the Mexican judicial system. We continue to urge the Mexican authorities to process this case expeditiously.
Of course this is all complete BS. Obama could simply demand the release of our Marine at any time. We gave Mexico $265 million in aid in 2013, and we can’t demand they help close the border and give us back our Marine?
“Private diplomatic discussions’? Of this I’m sure, Obama doesn’t want you to hear his private conversations where he tells his subordinates “We might do something about it next year.”
“We respect the rule of law” Uh, now is not the time to make jokes!
Sgt. Tahmooressi served his country honorably with 2 tours in Afghanistan and has been diagnosed with PTSD. He is now flat broke, having spent all his money on lawyers.
The Leathernecks Marine Corp Motorcycle Club of Central Florida is rallying to raise money to help Tahmooressi:

Obama is a zionist traitor to the American people. Wait what the hell I’m saying. He’s not even a American, is a African Kenyan.
PS : he is gay and Michelle is a men, just saying
Yet he trades 3 terrorist for a traitor just months ago!
I wonder what would happen, if all his supporters about this scenario, prayed every day , to our Heavenly Father, begging him to get him released!!!
if that was Obama’s ass in Mexico they would of blew the place up to get his ass out of there and this man is giving his life for obama and obama sits on his ass and does nothing
there is nothing in it for him
He is not black
I still say if our Marine was a Muslim, Obama would have already gotten him out. Obama is the poorest excuse for a Commander-In-Chief this country has ever had. Also, the worst president in the history of America.
Disgraceful and hopefully all our service members are aware of how this excuse for a president is handling this situation so they know who has there backs .
This is ridiculous if he was a black muslim he would have been out already.
To bad you arent a muslim terrorist. If you were obama would have used all manners of persuasion to have you released. A terrorist isnt going to try to help a true blue american and barack obama is one of the top terrorist in his muslim brotherhood
