I don't think we want to rely on Fox News for the decision or facts, I am going to go with the military justice system.
You fail to acknowledge who the top person in charge in the military is and the fact that the way this was handled is embarrassing for him. He has every incentive to whitewash any investigation.
The thing I find odd is that Snowden exposes illegal action and lies by the government and he is supposedly a traitor. Bergdahl does something illegal and goes to the enemy and he is O.K.
I can't quite comprehend that.
Snowden delivered confidential information to foreign powers, and Berghdal was taken POW. Why is it hard to comprehend the difference?

He went for a walk (a/k/a AWOL) in enemy territory, leaving a note explaining why, then joined the enemy. He converted to Islam during his captivity and declared himself a “mujahid,†or warrior for Islam, according to secret military documents obtained by Fox News.
The Pentagon never classified Bergdahl a POW during his five years in captivity.

Obama is president. That's why.
Even his administration has no clue about what's going on or what to do on a daily basis.
If you were there when he deserted or you know more than those that were there, then spit it out. Otherwise, move along because you apparently aren't capable of making a remotely intelligent comment.
You will discount any source that claims he was a deserter. You will discount those that served with him who claim he was a deserter. This link gives a lot of insight as to who Bergdahl is/was. I suggest you read it. He has a lot in common with you. Thought he was smarter and superior to everyone else.
He was sympathizer. He was ashamed to be an American. He hated America for what it was doing. He gravitated to the Afghans and separated himself from his unit. He asked his superior officer what would happen if he walked off the post with certain equipment. How come he wasn't never mentioned as a POW in the media? 6 soldiers died on a mission trying to rescue him.
I'm sure Afghan and Iraq was an eye-opener for many soldiers, but they didn't desert.
Seeing as how he was ashamed to be an American and hated America, I bet he was thrilled to know that 5 terrorists were swapped for him.
To have a point, just quote my post in this thread where I've defended Obama.
I poke fun at the haters all the time. That's not the same thing, is it...
You're not fooling anyone, dude. Doing it indirectly by re-naming any bit of criticism of his administration's actions as "obamaphobia", "irrational", from "haters", "bush-lovers", etc... is your way of defending him. Perhaps you've just been doing it so long, you can no longer recognize this fact.
