Aside from being proof the Republicans have officially politicized the release of Bowe Bergdahl, this is further proof they have sunk to the bottom of the sewer. I wonder how much these guys were paid?

Another member of Bergdahl's platoon said the soldier who was held captive in Afghanistan for five years didn't fit in.

Platoon members said Sergeant Bergdahl, of Hailey, Idaho, was known as bookish and filled with romantic notions that some found odd.

“He wouldn’t drink beer or eat barbecue and hang out with the other 20-year-olds,” Cody Full, another member of Sergeant Bergdahl’s platoon, said in an interview on Monday also arranged by Republican strategists. “He was always in his bunk. He ordered Rosetta Stone for all the languages there, learning Dari and Arabic and Pashto.”

Buzzfeed reported Tuesday morning that the interviews were set up by Richard Grenell, a former Bush administration aide who joined and then left Mitt romney's 2012 campaign over complaints from social conservatives that he was openly gay.

It is amazing that they assigned this guy to the most radical right wing unit in the entire Army. If only he had been placed in with regular people who think that walking away from an FOB in the middle of the night to get drunk was a perfectly acceptable means of coping with stress.
