HAILEY, Idaho — Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl's hometown abruptly canceled plans Wednesday for a welcome-home celebration, citing security concerns over the prospect of big crowds — both for and against the soldier.
The town of 8,000 has been swamped with hate mail and angry calls over Bergdahl, whose release after five years of Taliban captivity in Afghanistan has touched off a debate over whether the 28-year-old should be given a hero's welcome or punished as a deserter.

How about not celebrating a deserter.
Someone fax me a crying towel. Sniff, sniff...
When one reads the word “hate” in a news article, you can pretty much toss it aside as propaganda. I heard someone (Levin?) refer to it best as someone who has run out of bullets and just threw the gun.
Yeah, he should be rewarded (punished) for helping the freak in enemy. Hate mail, give me a break.
lots of folks have deer rifles up in those mountains
[sniff, sob, screech] .... MAYBE HE JUST DECIDED TO TAKE A WALK ONE NIGHT AND DESERT HIS POST... I MEAN, AT THIS POINT... WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAAAAAKE [high pitch screech, falling off like the wicked witch of the west]
lots of crossbows too
Hate?
No. This traitor’s name should never be spoken again.
A man without a country... Breathes there a man with soul so dead...
>> Hate mail?? Really, AP?
Disapproval, criticism, condemnation... that’s “hatred” to the popular idiots.
It’s now racist to to use the word..”deserter”.
Plastic surgery and the federal witness protection program are about to recieve yet another Obama client.He won’t have to work another day on his sordid life.After all he was a witness to the cruelty of his own squad against Afghanis during the prosecution of a war.Huge investigation coming against those fellow squald members who spoke out.
Its the fascist way.
Hate mail means they don’t support terrorism or desertion.
Just like hate also means believing the Bible and not celebrating sodomy.
Hope this piece of crap has one difficult life from here on,
Love to take him to a VFW 4th of July celebration.
Obama thought no one would dare open their mouth against a soldier's coming home...Surprise!!
Berhdahl is a DEFECTOR, not a deserter. A deserter is one who leaves his post and diaappears to wherever. A DEFECTOR leaves his post and goes over to the enemy’s side, by choice. Heard this on Mark Levin’s show by a Air Force vet who called in.
“Remember, boy, that behind all these men ... behind officers and government, and people even, there is the Country Herself, your Country, and that you belong to her as you belong to your own mother. Stand by her, boy, as you would stand by your mother ... !”
The majority of the letters must have came from Idaho citizens who won’t stand by an let a lie get official standing. The citizens in Idaho know the Obama Regime lies and won’t stand by to let them set up a phony hero to save face from the VA scandal.
Is Hailey a blue town? Or is it misguided?
The Daily Mail has reported that it was a local military base that complained. That’s when the cancellation took place. The DM has been on top of this from Day 1.
