An Army official reveals the tough charges the military has planned for POW, Bowe Bergdahl.

Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who was released by the Taliban last year in exchange for five prisoners, is being charged with desertion, retired Lt. Col. Tony Schaffer told Bill O’Reilly on “The O’Reilly Factor” Monday.

Mr. Shaffer, who now works for the London Center for Policy Research, said two separate military sources have confirmed to him that Sgt. Bergdahl’s attorney has been given a “charge sheet,” listing out the articles of the uniform military code that have been violated.

The dog and pony show with Obama and Bergdahl's parents was and is disgustingly outrageous. How little class, integrity, or honor emanates from Mr. Obama.

Sounds like this could be easily confirmed by just asking the lawyer. If he refuses to comment then it’s true.

We must have missed the President and Valerie Jarrett praising the service of Chris Kyle at his funeral.

Of course, Kyle was fighting the Muslim militants, not helping them attack our troops as Bergdahl did. It just depends on whose side you support.

I saw this interview and my conclusion was that the administration was still trying to cover itself. Or did I mishear the conversation?

So just say they get him for desertion.

Obama will say..so what...he was still a prisoner of war...and any punishment is "time served".

All anyone has to see is Obama's touchy, feely picture with Bergdahl's momma to know the "predestined" outcome.

You KNOW they knew he was a deserter BEFORE they gave their sharia buds more men to fight with ISIS.

The Hero of Benghazi will do anything to support Islam even honor the family of a deserter at our WH. The purpose of the show was to indicate that Bergdhal favored Islamic terrorists over serving in the evil US military.

Ooops.

See thread just above this one. Now is looks like business as usual. They may NOT charge him. Dumb 'swipes. Can't make up their minds.

I'm guessing Bammie just got new marching orders from his muzzie superiors.

US Army Denies Desertion Charge For Bergdahl

All I know is this... nothing else. Knowing the circumstances, I don’t think you will find ANY not ONE active or inactive soldier or sailor who would say that Bergdahl DID NOT desert. They will ALL say that he deserted.

If for some reason this comes out that he will not be charged for desertion, then something is really wrong here. I think Bergdahl knows the truth and probably admitted as such and willing to accept the consequences. Why? Because he’s damn lucky to still be alive. Damn lucky.

So we exchanged 5 prisoners for 1 deserter?

Why is desertion the only charge? Did he shoulder a weapon against collation troops? There is more here.

IF he is charged that is one thing...

It’s another to actually convict...

And another to actually impose and carry out any sentence worthy of a deserter.

I’ll wait and see, but I’m extremely cynical.
