Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl to plead guilty to desertion, misbehavior
NY Post ^ | October 6, 2017 | Bob Fredericks

Bergdahl’s decision to admit his guilt rather than face trial marks another twist in a bizarre eight-year drama that caused the nation to wrestle with difficult questions of loyalty, negotiating with hostage takers and America’s commitment not to leave its troops behind.

President Trump has called Bergdahl a “no-good traitor” who “should have been executed.”

It’s unclear whether the Idaho native, 31, will be locked up or receive a lesser sentence that reflects the time the Taliban held him under brutal conditions.

Another total repudiation of the Obama regime.

They had this guy’s parents at the White House and treated him as a hero.

FOAD, Obama!!!

Big Media still insists on using the Fraud’s pet name for the traitor Robert Bowdrie Bergdahl.

shoot him and then his idiot father

Who went to the white house and said “I’m going to speak Arabic now because my son forgot how to speak English” - THEN RECITED THE MUSLIM PRAYER

To Obama’s glee (standing right behind him and suddenly getting a big smile)

Wouldn't he say the same for øbama?

If not, why not?

Since he admits desertion, no way he would be promoted to sergeant.

Prisoner Bergdahl is the proper way to look at him.

IIRC there was talk of him trying to get off on the grounds of undue command influence...meaning DJT having declared him to be a traitor during the campaign...while he was very much a "private citizen".

Looks like his lawyers advised him that that wasn't gonna fly.

"This may put a bit of a crimp in Susan Rice’s heroic narrative for Bowe Bergdahl. Rather than serving with “honor and distinction” in Afghanistan, the Associated Press reports that Bergdahl will acknowledge that he deserted his unit and committed “misbehavior before the enemy.” The latter admission could get Bergdahl a life sentence"

The loathsome Susan Rice LIED about this case, just as she LIED about Benghazi and so much more.

Bergdahl went to the Taliban voluntarily. Should his time in their tender care count against a sentence for desertion? No!

Remember when Obama and company said he served with honor and distinction?

My guess is that they lost some free trial effort to suppress evidence about injured or killed Americans and or lost to suppress Drone footage. Therefore, there was no way in the world they wanted to be tried before a jury of NCOs and Junior officers.

That actually could have been a potential death sentence.
