Wonder who appointed this investigator. I will take the word of Bergdahl's fellow soldiers who were there and they are unanimous in their

opinion he is a deserter who cost the lives of otherr who looked for him.

Frankly I don't have too much faith in the top brass anymore. Pretty much all that's left are either Obamabots or else they're hanging on for retirement and they don't want to risk that.

[TexasTiger 9,668]

He sounds competent and honorable:

Desertion involves intent which is what his investigation sought to discern. I haven't heard any real evidence disputing his findings. Of course, your minds were made up before the investigation began.

Yeah......I always walked off post to search out the enemy as a way to pass time. It was enlightening.

What an ignorant post. You clearly know little about the facts of this case.

Did he or did he not walk off post in the middle of a combat zone?

There's no question he left his post. Desertion is a crime of intent. This highly decorated, respected major general conducted a thorough examination and reached a conclusion. You read a few articles and reached a contrary conclusion and are convinced you know better than the general. How incredibly arrogant of you.

[autigeremt 5,833]

I'm more inclined to take the word of his peers. If you think that politics can't infiltrate high brass you'd be wise to reconsider. My opinion and I don't care what you call me or state in defense.

This is a matter of law. It's more complex than his peers being upset with him. Their word can be believed and he still not have the intent to desert. It could still be misbehavior and actionable. Everything isn't just a matter of opinion. You prefer to besmirch the integrity of this general without any basis-- just speculation and opinion . That's shameful-- that's my opinion.

I'm not trying to put down the general but you are naive as heck if you don't think politics has entered into the Bergdahl case. I assume you remember that John Kerry put out a bunch of BS that was bought by a lot of military brass until the Swift Boat guys got the truth out. I may be wrong but seems like I remember a few times you pooh poohed the word of respected officers when it didn't suit your opinion. It's also kind of like the BenGhazi investigation. Key people were never talked to. In the Bergdahl case many of his fellow soldiers say no one has ever talked to them. Why?

If bergdahl had deserted while at Ft Hood or another CONUS location, by now he would have been give a dishonorable discharge and sitting in Leavenworth for a year or so. His connection to Obama is the only reason he is still walking around in uniform.

Is everyone who disagrees with you crazy and angry? The guys that are angry are the ones he deserted after several of their buddies dies searching for him and then seeing him made made almost a hero at home. Valerie Jarrett said he had served with distinction and honor. That's pure puke.The way I see it you have a problem grasping reality. But again that's JMO.

I work for a living. And once again, you have nothing but your anger.

[Proud Tiger 4,261]

Then maybe you should spend less time on a message board and more time being up to date on news.You have NOTHING except defending a losing position. And, once again, I say I'm not the one angry.......it's Bergdahl's buddies and the families of those guys killed looking for him who are angry

[AUUSN 823]

His former platoon leader, Capt. John Paul Billings, recounted soldiers awakening him early to say Bergdahl was missing.

"I didn't really know what to say. I was in shock, in absolute disbelief that I couldn't find one of my own men. It's a hard thing to swallow," Billings said, adding that a squad immediately went out to look for him.

On cross-examination, Billings said Bergdahl appeared to be completely normal the day before he disappeared, that he had been dedicated to the mission and had an outstanding record of performance.

The guys who flew planes into the World Trade Centers seemed normal to everyone as they went thru flight training and up to the point they took off. But it doesn't matter. The truth will come out on Bergdahl if there are no politics involved. And that's a big IF. Right now it would appear there is a Benghazi type whitewash going on. But that's just my opinion.

Your position is all about politics. Your mind was made up at the start.
