OT: The “odd” thing about Stanley McChrystal and the Rolling Stone interview which ended his career is he dissed Biden, not Obama. Biden has no power. Always seemed like something was missing, or edited.
Nice rainbow colors
Ft. Hood, Texas, I believe.
“Deserter”? No way. BERGDAHL WAS A DEFECTOR to the Taliban. So we traded 5 Taliban for 1 Taliban? Why isn’t 0dumbo in prison?
A free man. Getting paid with full medical no doubt.
I was referring to the Bergdahl situation....Not him...
I don’t believe he’s at Fort Hood. I’m here at Fort Hood and haven’t heard anything about it. Last I heard, he was still down at Fort Sam Houston, in San Antonio.
He is currently an E-5 in the US Army, so of course he has benefits such as “full medical” and pay. I’m surprised he’s not Sergeant Major of the Army or a warrant officer.
So sad that seemingly all of the higher up military officials “serving” under Obama have prostituted themselves and the “honor” to which they swore to uphold and the Constitution they swore to protect and defend with their very lives, to remain in their positions or even worse, get promotions.
That is the truth. He will get a promotion sometime before they leave office.
Obama fired McChrystal because McChrystal was critical of the Obama people.
True enough.
Their blood is on McChrystal’s hands.
Yep. He should have screaming it at the time.
Duh! Who could have ever imagined that?
I don’t understand your post. If someone deserts the military just doesn’t let them go on their merry way. They get that person. I don’t know why you would think deserters shouldn’t be apprehended and punish. Bergdahl should be court-martialed- not allowed to waltz away with his Taliban- buddies.
That’s what I do not understand. Why hasn’t anybody spoke up and at least tried to charge Obama with TREASON? We sure have enough reasons to. And yes, even in WW11 they were shooting deserters!
No way.
KIA, MIA, AWOL, Deserter, it doesn't matter. You still go looking for him. Stories about intentionally leaving might not have been true, and even with them true, you still try to get the Soldier back under military control as soon as possible.
That requires searching for him and putting Soldiers in harm's way.
War is Hell.
My cat knew immediately, too.
