“LIKE FATHER-—LIKE SON.”

Check out the picture of his father and I don’t think the answer will be difficult.

Obama was trying to get Muslim terrorists out of Guantanamo since he was elected.

“On 22 January 2009, President Barack Obama signed an order to suspend proceedings at Guantanamo military commission for 120 days and shut down the detention facility that year.[12][13] On 29 January 2009, a military judge at Guantanamo rejected the White House request in the case of Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, creating an unexpected challenge for the administration as it reviewed how the United States brings Guantanamo detainees to trial.[14] On 20 May 2009, the United States Senate passed an amendment to the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2009 (H.R. 2346) by a 90–6 vote to block funds needed for the transfer or release of prisoners held at the Guantanamo Bay detention camp.[15] President Obama issued a Presidential memorandum dated 15 December 2009, ordering Thomson Correctional Center, Thomson, Illinois to be prepared to accept transferred Guantanamo prisoners.[16]

The Final Report of the Guantanamo Review Task Force, dated 22 January 2010, published the results for the 240 detainees subject to the Review: 36 were the subject of active cases or investigations; 30 detainees from Yemen were designated for “conditional detention” due to the poor security environment in Yemen; 126 detainees were approved for transfer; 48 detainees were determined “too dangerous to transfer but not feasible for prosecution”.[17]

On 7 January 2011, President Obama signed the 2011 Defense Authorization Bill, which, in part, placed restrictions on the transfer of Guantanamo prisoners to the mainland or to foreign countries, thus impeding the closure of the facility.[18] In February 2011, U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates said that Guantanamo Bay was unlikely to be closed, due to opposition in the Congress.[19] Congress particularly opposed moving prisoners to facilities in the United States for detention or trial.[19] In April 2011, Wikileaks began publishing 779 secret files relating to prisoners in the Guantanamo Bay detention camp.[20] As of May 2014, 149 detainees remain at Guantanamo.[21]”

From what I have read of the incident, he deserted in the face of the enemy.

No hero’s welcome for this deserter. No doubt the Taliban jihadists are celebrating the fact that Obama was stupid enough to trade five of their generals for one deserter, but the girls who won’t get an education, the women who are stoned for getting raped, and the victims of honor killings won’t be celebrating the return of the vicious Taliban. This is another shameful episode in the national humiliation of the Obama presidency.

Yes. Everything Obama does is calculated to thumb America in the eye. What better way than to trade some of the most dangerous and committed Taliban prisoners we have in custody for one traitor?

“At this point in the developing narrative, Sgt. Bergdahl seems to have grown disillusioned with the mission, bitter about the Army and especially higher ranking enlisted men and officers, and simply walked off – gone “outside the wire” or protective base limits – and disappeared.”

Yeh its called desertion.

Obama has a natural affection for lawless types. Same character, same name.

Recall that his SS code name is...

RENEGADE

1: a deserter from one faith, cause, or allegiance to another
2: an individual who rejects lawful or conventional behavior

Well that’s just great! But what about the family’s of the men that were KIA looking for him? So eight family’s got flags and gold stars and the muzzie dad got his muzzie son back home safe. So a win win for our muzzie president. Five of his brothers gets to go free to fight another day and a mussie comes home. It’s a red letter day for Obobo.
