Should President Obama pardon SGT Bowe Bergdahl?

The answer is a definite NO. My question to this: why is he "still" called a sergeant? He should have been demoted to E-1 long time ago. This man committed an act of treason when he deserted in time of war. What is the law about that? Why have the commanding generals overseeing this situation allowed such an extended amount of time to take action. Bottom line, this has gone on for too long without reason. Trial by UCMJ and the POTUS to know his role and stay out of it.

SGM Matthew Quick, being an old war dog like youself you should know this by now.
885. ARTICLE 85. DESERTION
10. Punitive Articles
(a) Any member of the armed forces who–
(1) without authority goes or remains absent from his unit, organization, or place of duty with intent to remain away therefrom permanently;
(2) quits his unit, organization, or place of duty with intent to avoid hazardous duty or to shirk important service; or
(3) without being regularly separated from one of the armed forces enlists or accepts an appointment in the same or another one of the armed forces without fully disclosing the fact that he has not been regularly separated, or enters any foreign armed service except when authorized by the United States; is guilty of desertion.
(b) Any commissioned officer of the armed forces who, after tender of his resignation and before notice of its acceptance, quits his post or proper duties without leave and with intent to remain away therefrom permanently is guilty of desertion.
(c) Any person found guilty of desertion or attempt to desert shall be punished, if the offense is committed in time of war, by death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct, but if the desertion or attempt to desert occurs at any other time, by such punishment, other than death, as a court-martial may direct.
So under this Articles of the UCMJ/ I would have to say no. This is what I found and being a 31B for sometime I hope you are with me in my findings.

No way, I think it extremely unlikely that he would issue such a pardon.

When one joins the military they are aware that they may be sent down range. I have seen a number of individuals in the military who are immature but they know right from wrong. Being immature isn't a defensible act because we hold people accountable everyday for their immature acts on duty, some are no longer serving. This guy, yes I don't believe his gender assignment crap, put lives at risk when he decided to walk away from his post. A parody is not in order for his actions. I also don't believe that he should be authorized gender reassignment surgery. If he identified with being a female prior to. Wing in the military then he shouldn't be allowed the surgery, it's elective surgery. How many active duty members have to pay for their own elective surgery? Get your reassignment completed prior to coming in the military then join if you want to be in the military. Too many will join then expect the military to cover the bill. The government already wants to cut so much as it is.

Not only NO, but HELL NO!

I think that this is a rhetorical question. The answer is no.

This unfit maggot should be shot in his worthless dick and left to bleed out from having his dick and balls shot off. But... he wont. Why? Liberal pansy ass politicians can not stand the sight of a maggot bleeding out and his poor parents will cry in front of the damn cameras how much an asshole like me is and I should somehow be ashamed of what I think and feel about this piece of shit. This sick safe place puppy loving fuck joined our military, in the time of war... a volunteer military at that. What this maggot fucker did, and the lives of those he endangered and placed in harms way is unforgivable. Fry this fuck on a very low current and let every liberal wanna be joining our military so they can find "their" safeplace marshmallow comfort zone a nice place...in hell. This ass was promoted...absentia to the rank of a non commissioned officer... that needs to be stripped of his status and why that hasn't happened already is pissing me off. This maggot isn't a non com material, he wasn't a war time soldier material... and finding out that he wasn't a war time soldier during the time of war, in a war zone has consequences...I didn't force this sick pervert to join, you didn't either.. Why you continue to permit the known liberal media to continue this story to the masses is nothing short of disgusting. I as a taxpayer do not want to spend any more money housing or feeding this shitbird. Grant him a head stone, label it as "TRAITOR" and carve them letters deep into that piece of granite at the top, just above his worthless name, and know this...after his dna is burnt, this maggot will not breed.

You asked me what I thought... this is what I think. You cannot change my thought process, nor can you alter my mind. If you don't like the use of my language and the vulgarity of it...I used it to firmly set my stance on this issue. You don't have to read either and you can and move on. This maggot continues to insult me by his mere existence. Let him play soldier with all the dead pansy ass liberals in hell.

Absolutely NOT!!!!!!

This man deserted and caused a lot of issues. Now while he may be remorseful, he knew he was deserting and he knew the penalty for that.

He is a traitor who got good men killed trying to find him. Justice demands that he be court-martialed but knowing Obama he probably will pardon him. God bless Donald Trump
