Do you have actual access to the hearings? You certainly wish to make that insinuation with all of your claimed knowledge on the subject. I will believe McCain over you any day of the week. He does have access to facts, something that seems to elude you and your continuing lies.

Default Should Army Traitor Bowe Bergdahl Go To Prison

I voted other.

He should be shot or hanged, for desertion in a time of war, in the face of the enemy. 0Bama traded five murderers for a coward. How many American lives will be lost because of this travesty?

I thought the military still had execution on the books for traitors if they so pursue it?

The transcript has been released and as head of that committee, one would think that he would have taken the time to acquaint himself with the details, but who knows.

He absolutely shouldn't have but that's never stopped him from making ill-considered comments before.

Won't matter to a lot of people, but the NY Times laid into him pretty well:

In case anyone is interested, the full transcript from the Article 32 hearing is available here:

Good stuff TigerLily particularly pages 370 & 371, thanks

I got a laugh on this one:

Now, with respect to desertion, you've -- probably more has been said about desertion in the last 2 days than has been said on the subject in the sum total of Article 85 cases tried under the UCMJ 20 in the last 5 years.

Apparently a lot of people can smell a cover up when faced with one. If it wasn't for obama making a fool of himself declaring this traitor a hero, there would never have been a general involved with the investigation. Having a general involved with such an issue would be like Donald Trump involved with disciplining a janitor in one of his hotels. The communist put the word out, free this man so I don't look as stupid as I really am..!
The obama administration specializes in cover-up, that is why the Benghazi investigation has drug on so long, all of those at the top are doing their best to make sure the facts never surface..

Yeah this case of desertion got totally screwed up because Obama took the wrong side yet again.
