Sad.
Liberals are angry that their 'hero', Bob Bergdahl is being 'smeared'; once again.
The great liberal leader and iconoclast Barack Inssein Obama did not court martial Bergdahl and gave a Rose Garden ceremony to Bergdahl's parents.
If Trump had not been elected, Bergdahl would have skated.
I recall the empty suit's Rose Garden stunt. What a shallow poser he was/is. How hoodwinked some in this country were and still are.
As for bergdahl, he never should have been allowed into the military to begin with. Actions have consequences.
What a sad and shameful episode. A terrible 10 years of suffering for Master Sergeant Mark Allen and his family. The hashmarks on the sergeant's uniform demonstrate his dedication to his military and his nation.
Thank you
trump for your service
I told my sons not to join up even though I served. I told them that it would take awhile to work out the kinks in the system if we had major war. Between Democrat underfunding so they can transfer the money instead to buying votes, their idiot ROE, and idiot foreign policy, I told them that many people in the 1st wave of volunteers or recruits would die due to liberals.
When McNamara believes the war cannot be won he needs to step aside or speak up. He did neither. Walter Cronkhite and others were working for the East Bloc.
Besides Trump was not going to get the Al Gore treatment of sitting pretty and taking pictures as an occasional photographer.
Gore was assigned a position as reporter covering the activities of the 20th Engineer Brigade in Bien Hoa, South Vietnam. Obviously, this was a non-combat position, and some of those who served with Gore reported that their superiors requested Gore “should cover only military operations where security was good."
