Bowie Bergdahl charged with desertion

Post by Aaron »

...and misbehavior before the enemy. I have neither a lot of details nor a link, watching CNN at the navy hospital pharmacy.
If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom,...Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you...; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.

-Samuel Adams

Well, there goes his shot at becoming HopeyDopey's next military affairs advisor, which was my call for where he'd end up.

Well, depending on how you define the word negotiate, I kind of wish we did.

In OSHITHEAD'S mind.
POLITICIANS & DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad
