Idaho Mayor Doesn't Want Bergdahl Pre-Judged Until All Facts Are In. No Pre-Praise, Too?

I mean, we shouldn't have a "rush to judgment" and pre-praise him...right?

Hailey, Idaho Mayor, Fritz Haemmerle released a written statement Monday urging people not to judge Bowe Bergdahl until all the facts are in, given that there are opposing sides to this issue.

Does that also mean that since there are opposing sides that Bergdahl shouldn't be pre-praised either until all the facts are in?

But how can all of the facts come in if Obama is going to hamper an investigation from occuring?

Wanna know Chuck Hagel's secret recipe for turning terrorists (Taliban) into non-terrorists?

Have a third party become involved in negotiations and act as the intermediary. I guess neither pre-judging nor pre-praising can occur then...

It is unknown if this secret recipe will work on all terrorists though. Perhaps whim plays into this as well. /s

Looks like this is going to have the proverbial lock-box dropped on the entirety of this. King Obama has spoken.

Those who wave the flag for this dissenter, just because Obama calls him a hero, are dishonoring all the true heroes who have died defending freedom, many with no recognition. There is nothing honorable about this deserter’s service.

A parade and a court martial at the same time. America: what a country!

It doesn’t look like Zero wants the kind of investigation (via the military or otherwise) that could lead to a court martial.

And so, we can’t pre-judge Bergdahl, but he can be pre-praised, though. Apparently...

America: what a country!?

Having a third party act as an intermediary: does it stop the pre-praising? Apparently not...

The CiC will never let a court martial happen.

There are exactly two counties in ID that voted for obama: Latah (home of U. of ID) and Blaine (home of Hailey and Sun Valley). Blaine Co. is libtard central in ID.

FWIW, Hailey is the seat of Blaine County, one of only two counties in the entire state of Idaho to vote for ObaMao in 2008 and 2012.

To the south and west of Hailey are traditional small towns, farms, ranches and Mormon settlements as conservative as the rest of the state.

To the north are the rich ski resorts of Sun Valley, including one of John F. Kerry's mansions. These towns are filled with yuppies, Hollywood environmentalists, government workers and political types attracted by the cool refreshing summers and arguably the best skiing in the United States, albeit more remote than the more popular ski bum hangouts in Vermont, and around Denver and Park City.

One need only take one look at his hometown to see that it is uber-liberal.

If he said no, and said sarcastically that he just decided that he had enough of the U.S. military and decided to go on a sightseeing tour of Afghanistan, wouldn't that still get him court-martialed?

The mayors of all the towns that buried the soldiers who died looking for this town’s deserter need to send the mayor of Hailey a message.

That was my point in using the most ridiculous and outlandish - to make a point.

If he is investigated and eventually put under oath, I don’t see how he could evade being put in jail for some time... at the very least.
