As the Spartans said to Phillip II "If"...
I really believe he'll be convicted and then given the Dishonorable and quietly released from the Army.....with no jail time. There are a lot of Liberals who just want this to go away.

I wonder how many of Hillarys emails were pertaining to this trade. All of which she has since deleted permanently from her server AFTER being ordered to turn them all over. This case and Benghazi.

Our politicians continue to blatantly lie and bring shame on our country completely unfettered. We're in deep shit here fellas.

Anyone else placing a bet on a pre-emptive presidential pardon?
"He's suffered enough. This administration sees no purpose in dragging this super patriotic soldier through the mud again...." :roll:

Here's hoping to a long life of breaking big boulders into little rocks right up until the death warrant get signed.

Agreed, and the rising pool of Politico's doesn't look any better. Maybe we need to start snatching people off the street and putting them in office.

The results couldn't get any worse, and they might just get better.

With Obama now trying to pass a law that makes voting mandatory, and the very good chance that Liz Warren will be up next, the liberals fucking love her, we're prolly only one or two more terms away from full blown communism here in America, and people like Bergdalh will be their poster boy of the new American patriot.

My 10th grandchild is due in 2 months and it breaks my heart to know that they will never know the America I grew up in. And we've destroyed ourselves from within, not a shot fired.

Looking at the comments I'd change that to "A case the Administration doesn't want to see go to trial."

I saw this comment across the street a few days ago, so I'll paraphrase it, but "doesn't this asshole realize every time he walks away from his post he gets captured?"

Kinda sums it up for me. Put him under the jail and let us all move on. It's a damn shame we lost so many individuals looking for that clown, only to bring him home and ignore him.

His defense team must be former window lickers on the short bus. Do they really think anyone actually still believes any narrative other than the one that says that shitstain left voluntarily because he had fantasies of permanent man-love Thursday's?

I'm not a big Trump fan, but in this case he hit the nail right on the fucking head.
