I think its been pretty well established the guy deserted his post after numerous emails to the family expressing his dissatisfaction with America.

That's the first time I've heard that.I *have* heard,OTOH,that he was promoted from E-3 to E-5 while in captivity.If that's correct that suggests that the Army believed him to be a soldier who was following orders when captured as well as after having been captured.But I suppose that the Army might not have been aware of these e-mails or doubted their authenticity if they were,in fact,written.

I remember when this kid disappeared. It was widely reported then that he had deserted. I didn’t even realize he was still alive. I thought the Taliban had killed him.

You have Obama standing with the kid’s muzzie father out in the rose garden. Then the father gets to thank Allah for the whole think on TV. What a crock.
