I'm pretty sure Bergdahl was simply the excuse used to free the 5 Taliban; his part in the swap was meaningless. It was one of those moments where Obama said, "You've got to give me something. I can't just turn 5 prominent Taliban leaders loose." And, the buddies he was talking to over there in the Taliban, on Hillary's e-mail server said, "Well we got this wigged out white boy that deserted his post looking for hairy virgins a couple years back! He's really startin to annoy the [beeep] out of us; you can have him." Batta-bing batta-boom... A trade was made!!! In typical Obama fashion, the desertion charge has been obfuscated to cover the fact that he traded 5 Taliban leaders for a traitor, based on the assumption that most of the American people are too stupid to understand the truth, in typical liberal fashion.
Grouse you're over thinking the Bergdahl situation, Obama could give a [beeep] less about our troops, or what they think, now or in the future. If he did, Andrew Tamooressi wouldn't have spent 214 days in a Mexican jail for making a wrong turn, while he freed Bergdahl. Obama has proven time and time again that he doesn't even remotely give a [beeep] what people in the military think, why would you think that he started when it came to Bergdahl?
