Linky only.
The gist of the article is poor Bowe was going to "headquarters" to report that his superiors were being MEAN to him.
And then he was going to return to base.
So the spin begins.
ROTFLMAO!!!!! Suuurrrre you were.
Just a little vacation.
I was only “borrowing” that bank loot from the heist. I meant to return it.
Did he mail his “stuff” to “headquarters”, too? LOL!
Hmmm, never been in the military but my dad was. I think I remember him telling me there’s this thing called “chain of command”. You don’t do squat w/o permission, especially go to headquarters on your own. If that’s the best he’s got he’s toast............hopefully.
And right after I ROBBED the BANK I was planning on giving the money back. /s
I sold out our country, but I was planning on buying it bac. (WITH WHAT?)
“Begins”?Where(on earth)have you been??
I’m an idiot, but I was going to get smarter.
If he can prove he planned to return, that eliminates desertion. But does nothing to undermine collaborating with the enemy. Solution: Fine, not a deserter, but execute anyway.
He wasn’t TAKEN fromthe camp, He Deserted in a WARZONE!
Many soldiers DIED looking FOR HIM.
Shoot his ass! After a trial of course!
It would be like kidnapping someone and then expecting the charges to be dropped because even though you were caught with the kidnap victim all tied up, you were “plannign on returning them”.....
“Oh I robbed that bank, but I was planning on giving the money back...”
“Sorry for speeding officer, but i was planning on slowing down and drving the next 10 miles 5mph under the speed limit before you pulled me over for going 20mph over....”
That “Defense” of Berghdal just doesn’t CUT it...
the lwayer....going on about finding an “impartial court-martial panel. is a hoot!!
Bullying? Shoot the bastard.
A piece at a time?
AWOL (not ALOL) :)
Some advice to Berghdahl: “If you are going to leave the army, don’t do it in a warzone, wait till you get BACK to the STATES then go AWOL!”
What a Schmuck and this admin used him as “Cover” to relase some really bad people. I think Obama used deserter Bergdahl to intentionally piss of some of the top brass so he knew who to fire (the ones who objected over this)...
