The Obama Administration officials are the only ones who know what actually happened and they are intelligent and trustworthy so we must not question anything they say.
I suggested this one yesterday:
9. Obama was just doing his job as an al Qaeda operative.
As per #1, I would argue that Bergdahl and any other deserters and traitors should be left behind. Nobody has any obligation to see that they should be helped in any way. It is the deserter or traitors tree, he should be made to sit in it.
Well there is also Harry Reid’s (stolen from Hillary) line “WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE AT THIS POINT ANYHOW?”

Harry Reid on Bergdahl Deal: ‘What Difference Does It Make?’
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 06/05/2014 | Free Beacon Staff
Yes. Nice catch. I'll add it to my list plus another of my own:
9. Obama was just doing his job as an al Qaeda operative.
10. What difference does it make at this point anyhow?
11. Obama was blackmailed into making a trade that even he knew would be political poison.
By far the worst swap since the Warriors traded Joe Barry Carrol to the Celtics for Kevin Mchale and Robert Parrish.
(Or vice-versa)
Critics are saying Bergdahl should have been left behind
Mmmmm K....
Well, Obama has ordered strikes on a few Americans, who turned coat, so what would be the big effing deal if we did leave him?
He should have just released the 5 and let the Taliban keep Bergdahl — but the Taliban drove a hard bargain and made Obama take Bergdahl off their hands.
“Well, Obama has ordered strikes on a few Americans, who turned coat, so what would be the big effing deal if we did leave him?”
Based on Obama’s known orders to kill Americans without due process, it seems odd that Obama didn’t order a drone hit on Bergdahl. That he didn’t bolsters the case that Obama just used the Bergdahl situation as an excuse to reduce inventory at Guantanamo.
“The future is too good to waste on lies,” Bergdahl wrote his parents. “And life is way too short to care for the damnation of others, as well as to spend helping fools with their ideas that are wrong. I have seen their ideas and I am ashamed to even be American. The horror of the self-righteous arrogance that they thrive in. It is all revolting.”
Christopher Hayes @chrislhayes
Am I correct that the American right-wing has spent the day arguing we should have left an American soldier behind?
******
Yes, we should leave a freaking traitor behind when they are most likely collaborating with terrorists!
As if Chris Hayes even knows any American soldier or American right-wing for that matter.
Remember this?
Chris Hayes: I feel “uncomfortable” calling fallen military members “heroes.”
“I feel… uncomfortable, about the word because it seems to me that it is so rhetorically proximate to justifications for more war. Um, and, I don’t want to obviously desecrate or disrespect memory of anyone that’s fallen, and obviously there are individual circumstances in which there is genuine, tremendous heroism, you know, hail of gunfire, rescuing fellow soldiers, and things like that. But it seems to me that we marshal this word in a way that is problematic. But maybe I’m wrong about that.”
Bill O’Reilly had a good comment about this: if Bob Bergdahl came out wearing a yarmulke and speaking Hebrew, it would be safe to assume he was Jewish. So why do people get upset if we assume he is Muslim?
Bob Bergdahl looks like a convert and a fanatic. I suspect he is part of the American Sufi movement, they say they’re into peace and forgiveness, but it’s an Islamic cult.
Zactly....
Exactly!

My first thought at seeing him was that he is Muslim. After hearing of his opening words in Arabic at the White House, it left little doubt in my mind.
I’m thinking we should never send known muslims to fight muslims in other countries. Frankly, they should not be in our Military - but we know that will never happen. Nidal Hasan is an example of the dangers.
