Answers Needed On Bergdahl Ransom Payment
Investor's Business Daily ^ | December 3, 2014 | IBD EDITORIALS

Posted on 12/03/2014 9:44:56 AM PST by raptor22

Oversight: A House Armed Services Committee member asks for a probe into reports that money was paid in a failed attempt to ransom alleged deserter Bowe Bergdahl. And where's that Bergdahl investigation report, anyway?

Back on Oct. 16 we noted that the Pentagon had completed its investigation into Sgt. Bergdahl's abandonment of his Afghan post. But the report by Brig. Gen. Kenneth Dahl would not be released, according to an Army spokesman, until the end of a review process that was likely to be conveniently lengthy, lasting at least until after the midterm elections.

It has now been over six months since Bergdahl's May 14 release in exchange for five top Taliban commanders and a month since the administration's electoral thumping. Yet the report has still not been made public.

I’m sure there’s some kind of House committee that will “get to the bottom of this” in just a couple of minutes.....

I think there is criminal behavior, as I have never heard of any Pres before this pile of dung paying off the enemy plus releasing POW’s for any US DESERTER. We do not reward deserters. Only Obama does.

Well, see, this proves that Bergdahl wasn't really a deserter, but was acting under secret W.H. orders, for a deep infiltration intelligence mission. Only President Obama is smart enough and strong enough to conceive of, pull off, and take the unfounded racist criticism from such a singular plan! /sarc
