Again, show proof that he's a deserter. You can't. All you have are conservative talking points.
To be factual we do have the words of those he served with also. I hardly think they are simply "conservative talking points".

No matter, it's just another nail in the parties coffin come next month.
Apparently, has not yet seen his parents.

Lol--nail in the coffin? I'll bet you $100 that if you go out on the street and ask people who Berghdal is you will get blank stares.

You "think" the soldier's accusations have validity? Right...so you admit to not knowing doodly squat.

And I don't know anything about soldiers dying to look for him. I've seen no confirmation of that either. Soldiers go on patrol everyday whether a colleague is missing or not, so what's the difference if they did die looking for him?

You've got nothing so calm down.
If I have nothing, you have less.

I can't quite comprehend that.
Snowden doesn't fit into Obama's FAILED agenda that's why.

The ever inept clown Obama is completely lost with his ME policies.

If Obama's fanatical supporters knew that 6 YEARS later we would still be in Iraq AND flying missions in Syria he would have never been elected in the first place, so all they'll do is continue to believe his LIES and accept his FAILURES while blaming others.

How PATHETIC !!!

BTW Bergdahl should be hanged and his father charged with treason for wishing ill on America.

I sometimes have to wonder if half the posts here aren't designed to try and make someone else look bad as opposed to providing ones point of view.

The guys he served with? So we can convict him of desertion according inference and innuendo by "those he served with?"

The military has made it clear that desertion is already damn near an impossible charge to prove.

So if the bar for proof is that high, why should I believe simple statements by guys that may have an axe to grind and whom I know even less than I know Bergdahl...and I don't know much of anything about him either. Neither do you.

I find it hard to believe that anyone ever liked you. You come off as one of the most unlikeable people to exist. Of course, I'm sure you believe that everyone else is the problem, and not you. LOL
Nope. If being me means being unlikable, then being unlikable is preferable to being likable. I'm perfectly happy coming off as insolent.

Besides, I've got enough friends...ain't looking for more.

It "seems" he deserted? So you don't know...just like I thought.

Some of his cohorts are against him? Big deal...nothing new.

I was in the Army with a bunch of A-holes too...many of whom I wouldn't throw water on if they were on fire.

So 5 or 6 guys don't like him. Far more than that didn't like me. And I hated 10 times that number.

BTW...it's never been substantiated that ANYONE died looking for him. Nothing. No official reports state that.
Eau contraries batman. They went to look for this conflicted fool numerous times starting that evening. In several of those patrols men were killed. Had his conflicted self simply claimed conscientious objector status they could have skipped the exercise?

I was in the marines and there were plenty I didn't care for but, I never would have wanted to see any of them die on my behalf. Must be the difference between the marines I guess. While no angels, he had the ability to stop it.

Believe what you wish, it is your right. And hank you for your service. Hopefully the truth will all one out. Someday after this president is long gone.

I didn't say that did I? Want to start over with what you said and what I replied with?

I don't think they will convict him of desertion, maybe not even AWOL, doubtful he will even go to trial.

They're airborne infantrymen...they have to go out on patrols regardless.

Guys got killed? Yeah. That's what happens in wars.
