It almost sounds like the solider defected, converted to Islam, then volunteered to return to the US as a double agent.

Either that or the Taliban figured they couldn’t lose by returning “one of their own” in exchange for their Gitmo buddies.

Will the regime proclaim Bowe "off limits" to the press or anyone else due to a lengthy recovery period so as to prevent knowledge of his pro-Taliban ideology from coming out???

Answer: YES.

I share Lieutenant Colonel West’s concerns.

Looks like King Obama is a true hard core Muslim. He really screwed us badly and nothing we can do. All hail dictator King Obama.

I am trying to get the word out that Bargdahl is a deserter, on Yahoo news but Yahoo is probably getting hammered on this story, their web page is very slow!

Also, go to the Idaho news outlets and let them know! Obama will try to make this story make him look good. The WHOLE point to this was to get our attention off of the VA and Obama’s other problems.

I am catching lots of heat from well meaning vets who do not know the truth, as well as Lefty nuts who want to silence the truth.

There’s no problem here.

Those with the power to make a difference are sitting on their collective asses.

Those in power are free to move about the communist cabin.

Again. I’m moving to northern Italy to live out my life as an artist. Eat me.

Something definitely not ‘right’ about this story.

Someone mentioned the 6 men killed and others injured looking for this guy, but one may wonder how much info he may have given as to tactics etc...OTOH, he was only a PFC or so and hard telling how long he was in country.

I try to avoid BO when on the tube but that ‘Presser’ yesterday with Ma & Pa was downright scary.
I hadn’t read anything about the ‘old man’ but he sure put out a ‘scary personna’ what with the scraggly beard and all.
BO was also ‘pawing’ Ma and I did hear BO make a statement about how the US NEVER LEAVES ITS SOLDIERS BEHIND..(I guess he threw in Soldiers) so - in typical Clintoon fashion - we couldn’t ask about Benghazi, because they were Diplomats, not Soldiers....

When is that friggin R House going to get off their collective asses and put a stop to this madness....

More laws broken and procedures just overthrown... Wonder if any correlation as to ‘BO’ and his ‘sudden trip to MidEast’ and letting 5 top Talimebanana types free for a supposed punk.

Funny how ‘they’ kissed this dudes parents collective ass and told the Benghazi parents to go ‘f off’...

When you’re a Soldier, you belong to the US Army. You don’t get to go on nature hikes in the combat zone or go out looking for friends. The other Soldiers depend on you. It’s like the old Roman battle formations. Your buddy’s shield was supposed to be in front of you. If he was off screwing around, you were wide open to attack.

There is no acceptable reason for this idiot to leave his unit in a combat zone. He exposed all the other Soldiers. He deserted in a combat zone. Look up the punishment for that in The Uniform Code. I have nothing but contempt for this jackass.
