Oh, and Joe
The instantances you mentioned indicate that the Army is wrong initially in some cases, but they correct that problem when all the facts are finally in.
Just like they did when they changed Bergdahl's status from POW to deserter
Joe
Glad to see that we are in agreement that there is no question that Bergdahl deserted. That means the only issue on the table is the court martial, right?
Joe, the court will prove the desertion charge easy peasy.Joe

No, not at all. First, I never said he deserted. I said he left his unit without permission. It's not the same thing.
Second, there's the question of whether he was mentally competent enough to appreciate the consequences of his actions.
Third, the only reason you care is because you hate Obama, and just want to piss on anything he does.
Joe, the court will prove the desertion charge easy peasy.
He was mentally competent the night he went walk about.
Yes, obi is yelling because he hates his president.
Nah, you are flailing again. We could not try him in absentia because we did not have the evidence necessary. You would have flailed the president if he did not bring Bergdahl home. You want both worlds, but the fact is you don't have a home in either.You would not flail BHO if he had not brought Bergdahl home, Jarlaxle?
You are either delirious or outright lying, little buddy.
I would have preferred Bergdahl had been tried in absentia for desertion, convicted (it's open and shut), and had a Daisy Cutter dropped on his head. Exchanging terrorists for Americans is a HORRIBLE precedent to set. You're projecting again, putz.
And they should have been told to take a flying leap.
Actually, no...the 5 SHOULD have been released, but their last meal in custody should have been liberally dosed with amanita phalloides mushrooms.
Yes, I'm wondering how many truck stop hookers you've poisoned with comments like that.
On a serious note, we/ve been fighting the War in Afghanistan for 14 years now. By contrast, World War II only last 6 (only four for the US) and the Civil War only lasted 4. Most americans are not keen on spending any more treasure or blood there, and rightfully so.
So given that, and given the Afghan government wants to negotiate a settlement with the Taliban, wouldn't releasing taliban prisoners, you know, make sense?
As far as the question of desertion goes, it is defined as leaving one's unit without the intention of returning. The indications are that is the case.
No, Fakey, you are projecting AGAIN! Yes, I wanted Bergdahl home, but (use your reading finger here) not by releasing five Taliban terrorists!
Then that may be admissible to determine his mental state. I don't see any doubt about the desertion, though.I don't think he was. Did you read some of his writings. Imagine Templar Kormac on Acid. Then raise it about three more levels of crazy.

Except according to Bergdahl, his intent was to go to the next Army base and report his unit for what he considered it's problems. Which actually really does make more sense from what we've put together from his writings.
Crazy, yes. But they knew he was crazy when they signed him up.
"according to Bergdahl" is all u r running with. Not what most of his unit will testify to.

U board certified shrink?"according to Bergdahl" is all u r running with. Not what most of his unit will testify to.
Most of his unit doesn't know what was going on in his head.
