OK - change the venue to Afghanistan - where the crimes were committed...if he gets off, let him stay there.

Go right ahead, and a board of 7 military officers will decide if such comments will have any effect on them.

Don't know much about the UCMJ (almost nothing,in fact) but I've read one or two things about “undue command influence”.Of course Trump was just a private citizen when he declared this pig to be guilty.

What? They didn’t try him in eight years? Tough luck, son. You should have pushed for trial when Barry was in charge. Hope they hang you.

Why is this piece of sh*t still alive and drawing Army pay just like the other scumbag Hasan? They both need a painful dirt nap.

Couldn’t George Zimmerman have claimed the same thing?

And the comments by Obama in the Rose Garden were chopped liver?

Excellent point. Dead on.

Is this a military trial or a civil trial? Don’t think it is an issue in a military trial as all officers in the jury are under code of conduct? Might be an issue in a civil trial but it just means you move the trial?

So....................it is grandstanding?

Waiting to be corrected by those in the know.

Certainly, Bergdahl can get a fair trial, he can plead guilty or be convicted guilty by a jury.

Immaterial to the case. The CIC at the time was 0bama.

If all the evidence that I have read and heard is true, hang him.

That was a thoroughly disgusting and despicable incident.

I disagree. He’s a traitor and an enemy combatant. He defected to the enemy and fought alongside the Taliban which is why they didn’t kill him. They then came up with this scam where he would pose as a POW to help free 5 Taliban commanders and to their surprise it worked because we also had a traitor as President.

But it was impartial of Barack Hussein Obama to give Benedict Bergdahl a hero’s welcome reception at the White House.

This is known as the Charles Manson defense.

I seem to recall that the lawyers for the Manson family claimed they could not get a fair trial after President Nixon declared them guilty (it ran as a headline somewhere).

STILL a dude? Not so sure about that, allegedly his Afghani brothers made him squeal like a pig.
