It has been concluded that Bowe Bergdahl is a deserter:
The Army has decided to charge Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who was released by Taliban-aligned militants last year in exchange for five Guantanamo prisoners, with desertion, according to a former military intelligence officer.Retired Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer, who now works at the London Center for Policy Research, told Fox News' "The O'Reilly Factor" Monday night that he's learned of the military's decision from two sources.
"The Army has come to its conclusion, and Bowe Bergdahl ... will be charged with desertion," he said.
Asked for comment on the claim, Army officials denied that any decision had been made. Spokesman Paul Boyce told Fox News on Tuesday that there is "no change" and that it is an "ongoing review at this time."
Eugene Fidell, Bergdahl's lawyer, did not comment when reached by Fox News.
But Shaffer said Bergdahl's attorney has been given a "charge sheet" outlining the section of the military justice code Bergdahl allegedly violated.
"As a corporate entity, the Army has decided that they want to pursue Bergdahl for this violation," Shaffer said.
This is now an embarrassing albatross around Obama's neck and he wants nothing to do with it. So it's being delayed:
Shaffer said there's a "huge battle" going on inside the Obama administration, as some try to "suppress" this development. "This is shaping up to be a titanic struggle behind the scenes," he said.Shaffer said the Army "wants to do the right thing," but the White House "wants this to go away."
He said: "The White House, because of the political narrative, President Obama cozying up to the parents and because of he, President Obama, releasing the five Taliban ... The narrative is what the White House does not want to have come out."
Bergdahl being a deserter is nothing new to readers of Flopping Aces.
The horror that is America is disgusting. Bowe Bergdahl
That was just for starters:
The future is too good to waste on lies. And life is way too short to care for the damnation of others, as well as to spend it helping fools with their ideas that are wrong, Bergdahl reportedly wrote his father. I have seen their ideas and I am ashamed to even be american (sic). The horror of the self-righteous arrogance that they thrive in. It is all revolting.He also attacked the army saying it cut down people for being honest, and rewarded sycophants. The title of US soldier is just the lie of fools, he wrote. I am sorry for everything here.
Let's recall Obama proudly standing with the parents of Bowe Bergdahl, Bergdahl's father sporting his best jihadi beard.
Obama boasted:

I understand that several died looking for that waste of a human.
six lives for this? plus the scum bags released?...Hang the traitor!
I do recall when many reached a similar (but opposite) conclusion regarding Officer Wilson of Ferguson Missouri. Sometimes ya just gotta hold on for the fat lady...
This line is the tip off. If the lawyer had not received a charge sheet he would have stated as such. I said in an earlier thread that if the lawyer "declines comment" then Bergdahl is being charged.
;-)
No, not just that. How many of our people died because a deserter turned traitor and aided and abetted the enemy against them?
We know it’s true, but it’s not officially true until he’s convicted at a court martial.
He will say that he’s still an American who should be brought home and have a fair trial.
I would like Megyn Kelly to have the red-headed teeny-bopper (Jan something) on to ask her some questions, such as how did it come to be stated that Bergdahl served with honour, etc.
and don’t forget - he forgot how to speak English, so his idiot father had to recite the muslim prayer of the faithful at the white house.
the the delight of Obama who smiled broadly and more sincerely than I have ever seen
Wont be a schism; the CIC will give his orders and the politically correct and ambitious Generals will salute and execute them as directed.
Obama figures it was a freebie since he was planning on releasing the prisoners anyway.
Why does the media glorify them by calling them extremists. They are murdering savages.
Wrong. They are NOT going to charge him with anything... Kirby was just on TV.
I know off topic, but the mom should not have worn that sleeveless shift dress. It makes her body look blocky and it emphasizes that her arms are out of shape.
Didn’t she have a corresponding Muslim garb to go with her husband’s jihad beard? That would have been clothing in truth.
I will believe it when I see it. The military has been neutered & feminized beyond recognition, especially with the entire officer corps. They are nothing more than 0dumb0’s personal military to score political points, and carry out his hard-core leftist ideology & muslim ideology. There is absolutely no way that the Army brass will charge Bergdahl with desertion or have the guts to try him, let alone convict him & imprison him.
“HEY. look over there. Did you see what Miley did. HEY, there’s going to be a million deaths from the megamax-super-duper-ultra storm of the millennium in Boston. Obama wants to give you FREE community college. DEFLATED BALLS. Obama’s groundbreaking use of “transgendered” in a SOTU speech.”

If he’s prosecuted he will be sentenced to time served as a “pow” and given a general discharge. In other words, he’ll go home with all of his back pay. Including that paid while he was in captivity.
When he’s completely at a loss his last refuge always is ‘we disagree’ as though those words coming from him elevates his side up to the other. Obama is a total moron so far above his pay grade it’s a wonder he doesn’t walk around with a bloody nose all the time.
