Guess he doesn’t want to attend any reunions with his unit this summer, the traitorous creep.

Translation: We aren’t ready for the public to meet him because he doesn’t fit the official narrative.

“Deeply under wraps for the foreseeable future.”

I’ll bet they can’t shut him up and everything he says will be bad for Obama. (Who has the popcorn app?)

Exactly.

He hasn’t memorized the Obama narrative yet.

“Accidentally wandered away...., caught and tortured by Taliban.....Had to assimilate to survive.....Love my country..... Need a book deal first.... (whoops, forget the last one).

The media has circled the wagons just as I predicted. In the end, Bergdhal won’t be a hero to most people, but most people will have sympathy for him in the end. Obama is being cast has having made a hard choice whether or not to violate the unconstitutional NDAA. Other details are too abstract for people to care about, giving the media a chance to ignore it. Other details, like when the 5 kill some Americans, are too damaging to the Kenyan, forcing the media to ignore it. Zippy will gain from this politically, and will amass more raw power.

It’s funny, every time I think 0 has overplayed, he ends up better for it. Reason is gone, this thing is on autopilot.

Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl is in “good enough physical condition to allow him to return to the United States,” but he’s “not ready psychologically or emotionally,” U.S. officials confirmed to NBC News on Sunday.

Where's Patton when you need him.

I am reminded of the movie “We’re the Millers” where the erstwhile good-natured drug concierge has to go get a haircut so that he won’t reek “mule” when he goes through the border with an a$$load of dope in his Winnebago.

When asked by the Supercuts girl, “how do you want it?” he says something akin to:

“I want something that says I get up at 5AM every morning while the wife and kids are finally asleep and not nagging, bickering, and complaining, and I trudge off to a job I absolutely hate, to support a family that doesn’t appreciate me through a clusterf@ck of honking cars stalled on the 405 only to get back home at night and go to sleep and wondering why I haven’t blown my fricking brains out.”

The guy behind him beckons to the Supercuts chick [pointing to his hairstyle], “Hey, right here!”

My point is that everybody has their own personal hell on earth at some point. Some worse than others.

The father and mother are getting death threats? That smells like an Obama conspiracy.

It's going to take them months of work before they are convinced he will stick to the cover story he is given. IMHO, with a few words, this kid can be one of the biggest threats this presidency has ever had.

They're going to be very careful coaching up this one.

He is a deserter. Drag his ass back to the states and court martial him.
Period.

Be nice now.

How would you feel if you were forced to leave your beloved Islamic Life and be returned to the hated country of your birth? And, to add to that burden, to face the possibility of being put to death for the simple crime of desertion and collaboration with the enemy in time of war.

You must admit, that would be a hard pill to swallow.

To me, the situation reads like this: He was raised by these hippy-dips who convinced him that America is the aggressor and the Taliban is some underdog misrepresented by the military-industrial complex to justify taking Afghanistan for some underground oil pipeline, or so the CIA can take over the poppy fields, or some other paranoid Chomsky-ite notion. They may have even encouraged him to join the Army and defect so as to become some liaison or spokesperson for the Taliban who would then step forward and "Tell the American people the Real Truth about blah blah blah."

Kid believes parents, goes trotting off like a good little brainwashed liberal... and spends 5 years getting to know the Taliban and realizing that everything he was raised to believe is myth. He wants nothing to do with his family, they either lied to him and used him or taught him absolute nonsense. His life is destroyed. He'll probably be court-martialed... no wonder he wants nothing to do with him.

This is all speculation, of course, but it makes sense and explains why he doesn't want to see them now.
