A slap on the wrist.  The guy should be executed.

Last night, I sat in a chair and listened as one of my best friends told me about how he lost one of his best friends after he was hit by enemy fire in a helicopter in Vietnam in 1968, how he died in his arms and how it crushed his faith for years afterwards. He had never spoken about that before to anyone, and he was crying as we smoked our cigars and I gulped whiskey with him and held his hand and told him how terrific a man I though he was.

Bergdahl can rot in Hell.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Trump, as CinC should have kept his mouth shut...I am not talking about when he was a candidate, he wasn't CinC yet...

Yup.

The judge, Army Col Jeffery R Nance, considered the president's remarks as a mitigating factor in sentencing Bergdahl, whose lawyers argued he could not receive a fair trial because of the comments.

The decision on Sergeant Bergdahl is a complete and total disgrace to our Country and to our Military.

Yup.

They were quoting candidate Trump, not CIC Trump.  Watch the video here: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/president-trump-bowe-bergdahl/story?id=50912155

And who the hell cares about this?  Bergdahl pled guilty to desertion and endangering his fellow soldiers.

Seriously, shouldn't Bergdahl's confession, the dead soldiers who looked for him, the wounded soldiers who looked for him matter more than what a candidate said??????

Sorry, I disagree with you on this ... you and yours are the ones suffering from terminal knee jerk affliction.

If it matters what a candidate says, they you're telling everyone to shut the hell up.

Very American of you.  (/sarc)

I understand that some of us have a lot of skin in this game, so to speak, and it is hard to put that aside.  Speaking as the NT that I get labeled all the time, I believe this verdict today was going to be the verdict no matter what Trump did or did not say.  So there's that.  I will add, though, that if Trump were more savvy he would keep his big yap shut because he knows (or at least he should know by now) that every word he says is going to be used against him if at all possible.  He is guilty of feeding the trolls.

The sentence is effective immediately, except for the dishonorable discharge, which Bergdahl is appealing, according to Fidell.

YGTBFKM.  He essentially gets to walk away scot free after deserting his post during a time of war and siding with the enemy...and he's got the unmitigated gall to appeal his Dishonorable Discharge?

The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

I'm kinda surprised because the military judge handling the case was supposedly a hard-nosed tough guy.

Guess the judge went soft on us...

I don't think the judge had much of a choice, considering the President's remarks.  Trump screwed the pooch in this case, IMHO. Unlawful Command Influence is a big deal in military courts.

IIRC those comments were made when he was a candidate.  For the judge to take that into consideration and not Berghdal's own words bad mouthing the U.S> and the military is beyond belief.

But he reiterated them a couple of weeks ago.  He needs to STFU about cases like this, or the NYC truck killer...alleged..
