Not sure why the rights need to wave Pom poms when Trump does
Positive when it should have been done regardless
Wrong party is my guess.
You proceeded by smearing the accomplishment by bringing NK into the discussion despite insisting it is our duty to bring home all of our men regardless.
You don’t follow we’ll you brought up dealing with terroist .. but no issue dealing with Kim Wrong party right
A dizzying display of partisanship. Yes we are obligated to bring them all back. Yes it was a bad deal to bring back this deserter,we lost 6 good men bringing back a soldier who turned his back on his comrades,such a shame. Compound this by trading a handful of bad guys in order to secure the release and it is a terrible deal.
So you do want to pick and choose who comes home and uninformed to boot

If you read enough about it you will find varying accounts regarding the loss of troops looking for the deserter.
Congratulations 🎉, you said something nice about our President.

Ha, glad you know what fake news is. I will stick with what retired GENERAL Michael Flynn said... as well as soldiers involved in the effort to find him. Not to
Mention officers who told cnn that we suffered 8 additional casualties at combat outpost Keating due to resources dedicated to finding your hero.

So to defend your case you’re citing a man convicted of multiple felonies who just got absolutely torched by a federal judge today in court even going to far as to question his patriotism and if he was a traitor.
You don’t need to respond, it all makes sense now.

That same federal judge then said in open court, as did the prosecutors, that Flynn didn't commit treason, and the same judge said explicitly, that he wasn't implying Flynn did.
But since you feel that judges saying something automatically has credibility, how about the judge striking down Obamacare? That must be just as credible, right? Or else you're a partisan hypocrite?

Flynn has pleaded guilty to very serious federal crimes. The judge who rules on the ACA has been ridiculed by both sides of the aisle. Once again you seek parity where there is none.

Jeff,if you read beyond that you would realize there are many others who substantiate this claim. I doubt any of us will ever know the real truth.

So you can't accept the Truth ...
Soldiers die in combat for all kinds of reasons that's just the risk in combat we take when ever we go on patrol... I find it odd armchair generals now put a good death bad death scale into play..
FYI
One-Third Of US Casualties In Afghanistan And Iraq Were Non-Combat Accidents
An analysis of Department of Defense Trauma Registry data published in the medical journal JAMA Surgery found that 34.1% of total casualties and 11.5% percent of all deaths from January 2003 to December 2014 occurred in non-combat conditions.
also
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said in a congressional hearing, “I have seen no evidence that directly links any American combat death to the rescue or finding or search of Sergeant Bergdahl.”
as we say #^&#^&#^&#^& happens

Like I said, varying accounts and we can both believe what we choose. Regardless, bad deal.
