Boston conservative radio talk show host Howie Carr said this week that Bowe Bergdahl should just say he's gay, claim he was bullied by his fellow troops in Afghanistan and ran off. In today's Amerika, that would put him in a protected class, thus garnering all kinds of sympathy. In his long career reporting on the antics of the Massachusetts government, Howie has developed a keen instinct on how liberals think.
Monday afternoon, Howie took a call from "Alex", one of the guys who went looking for Bergdahl when he vanished.

The first twelve minutes Howie discusses the case with Col. David Hunt.

Bradley Manning played up the gay outcast angle to engage in willful sabotage and espionage.

Found this reference in the antiwar article linked somewhere in this thread...
” And this US government cable posted by WikiLeaks contains intercepted Taliban communications hailing his capture and claiming it occurred in the course of an attack on Bergdahls base while he was using a latrine.”
Anyone heard any other talking points about this “wikileaks memo” claiming he was captured by the Taliban while on base?

Why is it I never see headlines reporting “turncoat” Taliban members who go public with evidence of war crimes committed by their side?
Why is it I never hear about criminal prosecution of war criminals on the Islamist side in Iraq and Afghanistan?

At least Oswald waited for his military discharge to defect to the other side. He lied a bit to get his hardship discharge.

I reject this anti-American fool’s “apology”. He should be fired and exiled.

if he joined the Taliban, hes still a hero??? >> To the Obama administration, yes.
John F. Kerry was a war hero, to the Viet Cong.

Why doesnt the WH make up a list of 100 excuses of why this private decided to desert his post, hand it too him, and ask him to pick one or two. Scandal solved...all is good. "You are entitled to your own opinion, but you are not entitled to your own set of facts." - Ronald Reagan

I mark this, the 5th of June, 2014, as the day when the Obama administration jumped the shark. The Obama administration jumped the shark in March of 2009 after Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize. How could he possibly top that moment? It's all been downhill ever after.

Thanks for finding that Time article. Ties him to the VA (2009-2012) before his switch to HUD.
But he still finds time to go on air, in print, and in social media.
He carries the administration’s water bucket.
