'Bowe Bergdahl deserted and Americans lost their lives'

Not everyone is welcoming Bowe Bergdahl home with open arms. Some of the men who served with the Taliban POW believe that he deserted his post. And they say six American soldiers died because of his actions.

Bergdahl's release, brokered with the Taliban in exchange for five Guantanamo detainees, has ignited fury in some corners of the U.S. military community and re-opened old wounds.

'Bowe Bergdahl deserted during a time of war and his fellow Americans lost their lives searching for him,' former Sergeant Matt Vierkant told CNN.

A former superior of the 28-year-old soldier, Greg Leatherman, said he hopes the military investigates Bergdahl and questions whether he did, indeed, desert his post in Afghanistan on June 30, 2009.

Well, this is getting thick quick, and if true, Obama just traded 5 patriots for one traitor?

Time to double down.

This 't look good, and Obama might just as well be included in the court martial...

Perhaps we should wait until he's recovered and properly debriefed before we start constructing the gallows...

There is more to this than what we are being told. Anything Obummer says believe just the opposite.

The soldiers that are telling the truth about this guy will be audited by the IRS, and new orders will be delivered by a special officer to their army commanders ordering these men to the front lines, for a good killing!
No one is allowed to tell the truth against King Traitor Obama!

Huh? Patriots? Do you mean Taliban extremist? Those murdering muslims were not Patriots.

Obama welcomed that traitor who I believe now is a Muslim, with open arms.

Obama and that Traitor need to be hung.

How could this guy be the only "American" to live 5 years in captivity when the rest were beaten, murdered and beheaded. If it sounds like a duck....

Never negotiate with terrorist. Never. They should have let the taliban keep him, regardless of his debriefing.
