Outraged parents of officer who died hunting for 'deserter' POW Bergdahl lash out at Obama
Daily Mail (UK) ^ | 2014-06-02 | Daniel Bates

Posted on 06/02/2014 11:40:12 AM PDT by justlurking

The furious parents of an officer who they claim was killed while searching for freed Taliban prisoner Bowe Bergdahl today said that they have been lied to as part of a ‘cover up just like Benghazi’.

The mother and father of Second Lieutenant Darryn Andrews are angry that they have been told different stories about how their son died.

First his commanders said that their son was blown up while hunting a Taliban commander - but only now that Bergdahl has been freed after five years in captivity are they learning the truth.

Lt Andrews’ parents told MailOnline that their own son branded Bergdahl a ‘deserter’ before he was killed.

In an exclusive interview his father Andy Andrews told MailOnline: ‘For his family it’s good to get him back but we will never be able to get our son back because of the actions of this guy (Bergdahl).

‘I think people need to be aware that the guy was not a hero and American lives have been lost trying to save this deserter’.

Original title is:

EXCLUSIVE - 'A cover up just like Benghazi': Outraged parents of officer who died hunting for 'deserter' POW Bergdahl lash out at Obama over 'LIES' they were told about how their hero son died

I had to excerpt the title to fit it in.

The bullet point summary at beginning of article:

Lt Darryn Andrews, from Dallas, Texas, died at the age of 34 on Sept 4, 2009 during his second tour of Afghanistan

Too bad it won’t matter. Half the country wanted this Muslim sympathizer in office. Still do.

If they lashed out at Obama, they are obviously racists. Ignore them.

A Wag the Dog to deflect the VA is running true to the movie as Shoemaker-err Bergdahl is not who they portray him to be.

Too bad for Obama there's not a Hollywood Producer around to fix it.

Show me any other case where BO has gone to this much trouble to get a POW back.

Good luck in finding out why.

“King Obama has tee time at 9:00 am. Unless you want to talk golf, turn in a patriot, or about converting to Islam he doesn’t have time for you.”

So 0bama struts and props this Traitor up and we all just have to take it, right?

I’ve read that “some in Congress” are calling the _resident out on this.

Who are they? Why aren’t they demanding this nonsense be stopped? They seem part and parcel of this whole Treasonous enterprise.

Why do we have to hear this news from the British press?

Our MSM is all but useless.

Again, yet another article about our military posted in a FOREIGN paper, the British Daily Mail. Doing the job the lsm here refuses to do.

I keep thinking of Chris Matthews wetting his pants over this PR Obama disaster.

This is far and away the worst scandal of the Obama Administration.

6 people killed trying to rescue this deserter and then Obama trades 5 terrorists to “free” him from his fellow travelers.

This literally makes me sick to my stomach!

This is another poke in the eye to all veterans. And it’s another shot at telling congress they’re irrelevant.

And Hagel, a Viet Nam veteran supports this shit. He, too, is a traitor.

We will not survive the rest of this traitor’s term.

Yes, I find it interesting that a British paper was the first to actually reach out to the family of one of the soldiers killed in the search.

Back up

Awesome, thank you!

As a note of explanation - I asked for the posting to be deleted because it was a duplicate.

But, while looking for more information about Lt. Darryn Andrews, I noticed this posting had ALREADY been indexed by Google. If you searched for Darryn Andrews name, it was near the top.

Even the original Daily Mail article this posting links to wasn't showing up in the Google search results.
