In addition to Andrews, Casillas, Fairbairn and Martinek, PFC Morriss Walker and Staff Sergeants Clayton Bowen, Kurt Curtiss and Michael Murphrey died as a result of Bergdahl’s abandonment.

That’s eight dead American soldiers (not six, as the rest of the media have reported) betrayed by selfish Bergdahl and reckless President Obama.

Understand this, Obama has improved his personal Net worth, by only a few million dollars in the White House. He is setting himself up, for the billion dollar paychecks after he leaves office. Clinton did it, with a rash of pardons and deals in the last months of his Criminal presidency. Obama will do it too, but he is getting the pay off from the Jihadists in Qatar. Nobody has even asked the question yet: Why Qatar?
Remember, we are dealing with DEMOCRATS, who, with impunity, and in broad daylight, will sell missile secrets to the Chinese, for campaign donations. They regularly shake down every substantial industry in America, for protection money. Democrats hide behind class warfare, as they enrich themselves and their cronies.

Thanks Chaplain. Thank you for your service to our nation, and for serving Jesus Christ. I listened to Sean Hannity interview the mother of the officer killed while searching for the traitor and deserter. It was heartbreaking. This young man was a Christian and a respected officer. My God; was has happened to our nation.

“...had written down before that he wanted to live in the mountains.”

Plus no telling how many these five will kill in the next 30 years. Then add the morale boosting to the Taliban by this event, which will only embolden them.

The real math? Obama's reckless actions have set the war on terror back 20 years.

What has happened to our nation.

In my opinion, we turned from God and simultaneously stopped paying attention to the training of our children.

It was a matter of time.

Let’s not forget those who died capturing the five Taliban war criminals that O’Bammy released in exchange for our traitor.

Very good answer. I marvel at these surveys that say America is 89% Christian, or a similar statistic. They are all nonsense. Most are cultural Christians, or have zero faith. I put the percentage at between 10 to 15 percent, at best.

According to the State Dept , none of this evidence matters.

All that matters is Bergdahl’s version of what happened, the talking points of which are now being formulated by the same people in the White House that produced the Benghazi talking points and these talking points will be delivered to Bergdahl for rehearsal just as soon as they are completed

It just gets worse. With the revelation of two additional, the number killed because of this pussy now stands at 16!

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3163372/posts

The Battle of Kamdesh, one of the most deadly military engagements during the U.S. war in Afghanistan, turned especially bloody – leaving eight Americans dead and 22 wounded – because troops and aircraft normally tasked to support U.S. fighting men and woman were diverted to search for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl. The Oct. 3, 2009 battle at Combat Outpost Keating, near the town of Kamdesh in Nuristan province, lasted more than 12 hours and earned two Army staff sergeants the Medal of Honor, the highest award for bravery the Pentagon can bestow on a warrior.

So Bergdahl got caught sleeping on watch and was disciplined. And then he got angry and went to join the enemy.

And this morning runs a headline from the Obama admin that only Bergdahl knows the circumstances of his capture.

Got it.

To a man, his entire unit, those closest to him, say that he deserted. He left.

No matter what excuse or explanation someone might come up with for that, the fact is that he left. He was supposed to be there, and he wasn’t there.

There is absolutely no denying that a desertion took place.

All the other evidence says he intentionally left. Like on a lawyer TV show, his only defense can be that he went crazy. I’ve heard he was weird, but no one yet has suggested he went insane.

Does he deserve a trial by court martial? Yes. There is absolutely no doubt. He should be court martialed and let the jurors sort out countless testimony that he just up and left. And then he should be punished. I don’t buy the notion that 5 years in captivity was brutal. The pictures I’ve seen of him since his return, he looked pretty capable to me.

This cannot stand.

Yes it will. He's the first black president, so who's going to stand up against him and his continued lawlessness? No one. This is only the beginning, before the POS is out of office there will be no terrorists in Guantanamo. Book it.

The worst part for those of us that suffered through that time is that PFC Bergdahl is being hailed as some kind of hero. He was automatically promoted to Specialist and Sergeant, ranks he does not deserve and did not earn.

Desert your post to join the enemy. This is how rank is now earned in the Usurper's army. Not surprised at all.

Compare this to the treatment of Col. Lakin who was sent to Ft. Leavenworth for upholding his sworn oath to the Constitution.

Good point. I pray there will be a House Hearing on this matter and that your point is addressed. The photos of the fine men who died trying to find Bergdahl break my heart. Any one of them could be our sons. As much as I hold GW Bush to account for so much malfeasance, I know he would never have allowed this to happen.

The response from the White House is sickening. The characters of Bergdahl and his father are traitorous.

I am a single father of a young son in my full-time care. If I was not so responsible I would be in the Halls of Congress and its office buildings bellowing so strongly concerning this outrage as to provoke arrest. Why more Americans are not yet descended upon DC regarding this travesty confuses and disheartens me.

Got caught sleeping...There aren’t any of us who’ve been in the military who don’t realize that if you nod off you NEED to be gob-smacked. There are times you just can’t do that.

Even when driving down the road as a civilian here at home, if you start to nod, you want your wife or kid or someone to get direct and force you to pull over a switch drivers. It’s too dangerous a situation for you to be nodding off.
