Six guys dead because he left his post and took a walk.


I am doubtful that the Obama Administration is going to allow the military to get to the bottom of this.

Never said they were. Your attempted strawman notwithstanding, I said you don't have all the facts.

Go ahead, say I'm wrong. Tell me you know the whole story.

I know you won't. Somewhere beneath your bullheaded blather, you are an honest man.


T-Bones... how many times did you stack your gear and head out into enemy country?

You mean. . . for the first time in all its history, the military might not tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?

Why, DAMN that nig. . . er, Kenyan Muslim Socialist!

This is in bold at the top of the article.

Gilat Shalit was not a deserter.

In the end, what does that matter in regards to bringing him home?

The US can't allow a US soldier to be held prisoner forever .

If he did something wrong, the US Army is who should deal with that, not the Taliban.

No I do not have all the facts....but you gotta admit, it ain't looking good:

Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl may have not only been a deserter, but an active collaborator with the enemy, a senior Defense Department official told Fox News.
The unidentified source reportedly said that Bergdahl has been investigated by the U.S. intelligence community and is the subject of a “major classified file” which has yet to be seen by a relevant congressional committee.
The Pentagon official said, however, that if a request to see the file were to be made by a congressional committee, they’d likely gain access, according to Fox News.

A separate administration official who focuses on counterterrorism told Fox News that “everybody’s looking” into Bergdahl’s disappearance and time spent over past five years.
“He’s not going to get a free pass,” the official reportedly said. “He’s going to have a lot of questions to answer — a lot. Is he a hero? No.”

What good does it do you to allow yourself to be sucked into this so quickly?

We have very little evidence about what has happened so far, and we are under no time pressure to pass judgement.

Tecumsehsbones mentioned that it took 13 posts to go from possible deserter to deserter. By post 32 you guys seem to be pretty sure that he has the blood of multiple people on his hands and has committed treason.

We all know that certain groups like to drum up everything that the president touches into as big an issue as possible for political reasons. Lets pump the breaks and let the real story come out.

What do any of his actions have to do with his value in a trade like this?

An american soldier is an american soldier, and they don't leave any man behind for any reason.
