I don't think anyone is surprised that these guys are rejoining the fight. I just hope they were microchipped and we have drones waiting for them.

(probably covered, but I don't care)

So Bergdahl's family has received death threats... what the hell? Why do so many Americans act like Afghanis?

BTW, LOL at this response by a Murrcan to a columnist who said that American media is biased:

Quote :

"Kid.....do you even understand the meaning of the word "hypocrisy"? You declare the US media to be "hypocritical"......and then fail to provide a SINGLE validation or example of that unsupported assertion. Where is this "hypocrisy" you rant about? Bergdahl is a military deserter, he played with the Enemy whether intentional or otherwise...and may have committed treason in the process....;so PLEASE point to your alleged "hypocrisy"?. Then lets look at the "trade" our "Fearless Leader" and his Gang That Can't Shoot Straight made! Mullah Omar and his Bloody Band of Merry Men got back his equivalent of Heinrich Himmler, Joseph Goebbels, Hermann Goring, Martin Bormann, and Reinhard Heydrich by trading them all for Eddie Slovic (the only US soldier in WW II executed for desertion). That is like trading the family's only cow for a bag of "Magic Beans".......which is pretty much what the American MSM is saying......show me the "hypocrisy"? Oh, and you nasty, presumptive, little "nice lady"....I don't need a characterless coward like Bergdahl (or you!) to tell me about the war with our enemies.....my son did combat tours in both Iraq and Afghanistan (we have been a military family for over 300 years) To say he was "less than impressed" with your part of the world is like saying that the mid-winter temperature at the South Pole tends to lean away from tropical! My son and his "Battle Buddies" are obviously made of sterner stuff than that Bergdahl puke!"

Americans have a long and celebrated tradition of death threats

6/12/2014 1:55:57 PM

Bush freed 532 people from Gitmo, 171 were reported to have returned to the fight (one of them may have played a role in Benghazi)

Obama has freed 7

any outrage over this swap is the result of being brainwashed by Fox News. Republicans are all sheep, really dumb sheep.

sorry, that was uninentionally vague

Obama released 7 who returned to the fight in comparison to Bush's 171

I like to intentionally say his last name as "bird dog"

6/13/2014 4:27:58 PM

^ I've noticed I've been doing the same thing in my head, to the tune of the Everly Brothers song:

He's a Berg

He's a Dahl




He's a Bergdahl.

No

I keep thinking this thread is about Blaze Berdahl.



YOU GOTTA BELIEVE!

6/14/2014 2:46:24 PM

anybody listen to serial podcast

10/23/2017 7:39:50 PM

yup. pretty good.

Dishonorable Discharge

Fucker should hang, but we as a nation have lost our balls. Sad

11/4/2017 1:08:42 AM

Him or Manning, or both?

11/4/2017 1:09:41 AM

I'm shocked a member of the military would encourage killing another person

11/4/2017 7:44:11 AM

^ Wait, isn't that as expected, and therefore, not shocking at all?

[Edited on November 4, 2017 at 8:56 AM. Reason : Or maybe that was your point and you were being facetious ]

Zero issues with the sentence.

Army should have never waivered his ass in, so they share some of the responsibility.
