Donald Trump has again articulated exactly what they believe.

Unfortunately more than a few DUers believe this as well

So what? It wouldn't be the first time investigators were wrong in their conclusions. The FACT is we'll never know what was in his head. I do think he should be punished but frankly, having to live with those barbarians is plenty of punishment.

Obviously you believe Bergdahl is lying but these aren't naifs who investigated this. They spent many, many hours, days, months, with Bergdahl and 57 other witnesses.

The possibility that Bergdahl, and everyone else they interviewed, pulled the wool over them is pretty laughable.

But whatever. Carry on.

Or just forget that? What about the communications that were intercepted?

I'm very relieved that Sgt Berghahl isn't a traitor. I've been thinking about him and his family lately, feeling very sad, but now there's hope of a good outcome.

ever since he first went missing. He was based out of our Ft. Richardson here in Anchorage, so we were following the story locally from the beginning.
