“Must want a pardon before Mad Dog gets in. Love to see 12 Marines sitting on that jury.”
There might be a fight over who gets to execute him...

Can someone who has a court date set for his trial be pardoned by the Muzzident? I do not think so. He has not been found guilty of anything

He should be tried, found guilty and summarily executed (not necessarily in that order). Yes in that order. That is the way we do things.
Same goes for Obama, Hillary and the administration that is complicit in treason against the United States and its People

Unfortunately, yes he can. The President’s pardon power is absolute and can be for crimes that have been or may have been committed. No charge or conviction is necessary. Look at Ford’s pardon of Nixon for an example.

This traitor knows his days of delay are almost over. The hangman awaits, I hope.

No sir, but the soldiers from his unit on the jury. A jury of his peers.

The military is running out the clock. Berghdal is trying to eliminate the clock

Yes,the President has pardon powers regarding many Federal crimes/convictions.But given his title of “Commander-In-Chief” wouldn't a pardon *before* the usual procedures connected to courts-martial be considered “undue Command influence”? Yes,he certainly has the power to pardon anyone convicted by court-martial but,perhaps,not before.
To: Uncle Sam 911
He should have already been busted and in Leavenworth.

For example, an investigation into Hillary Clintons email scandal would expose Obama as knowingly and willfully abetting her actions. Agreed. For political expediency, I hope B. Hussein Obama pardons Hillary Crinton. This would give Trump and company much needed cover while he goes after the crimes with the Crinton Foundation. For justice, I hope they all go to jail.

“PEOPLE (sons of American families) DIED on missions trying to find this traitorous POS. He should be tried, found guilty and summarily executed (not necessarily in that order).”
Put him in the same cell with Bradley Manning for the next 20 years.

If he is pardoned, he will have to go into hiding for the rest of his miserable life.

.......I don’t think Bergdahl can afford 24/7 bodyguards.
Prison “might” be safer for him until memories fade.

If Obama pardons Hillary, not to worry; Trump needs only wait for her to commit more crimes and he won’t have to wait long.

"U.S. Army Sgt. homo coward traitor Bowe Bergdahl..."There, fixed it.
Every time I hear someone call him a Sergeant, it p*sses me off so bad, that even the stripes on the sleeves of my old Class A's, hanging in the closet, turn red.
If that little faggot is pardoned, it'll be a slap in the face of every man and woman who has ever earned their stripes or chevrons the right and honorable way. Not to mention an unforgivable affront to the families of those who died looking for him, uh, her.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho! God Bless Texas!

Perhaps another threesome with the Bergdahls will sway him.
