Agreed.

We still don’t even know what his SAT scores or grades in college were and I’ve never yet met anyone on the Left who’s remotely curious about this nor about Bill Ayers or Bengazi, the Iran deal or anything else which might make The One look bad.

Then again, I am routinely surprised by the way that justice is administered, and rule out nothing.

We’ve just seen a court toss a legal, and constitutional, order on travel into the US because of comments made by “candidate Trump” and the courts have almost routinely overturned legal, and constitutional, votes by citizens in favor of their own preferred ideologies.

I’m rule out nothing, and am not surprised anymore.

PS PowerLine is all over this, and Scott Johnson is livid. Lots of links and data.

I watched many interviews with his fellow soldiers who came on TV after he was released by the Taliban. Most of them described Bergdahl as a goof ball with delusional thinking. He fancied himself a “super soldier” with superior outdoor abilities. His ill-planned and poorly executed plan to complain about his leadership went awry as he was easily captured by the Taliban. The search for him was exhaustive and lead to some soldiers killed and wounded. Some of the wounded were permanently disabled and understandably have ill feelings about Bergdahl’s actions.

You can read more about his mental problems here: http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/17/politics/bowe-bergdahl-documents-released/index.html

Bergdahl’s screwball actions caused casualties. He was mentally unstable but knew what he was doing was wrong. Stable enough to stand trial and understand right from wrong. IMO, time served, as suggested by Judge Napolitano, is not sufficient punishment. 15 years in Leavenworth might be more fitting.

As to Obama’s motivations. Knave to release five Taliban commanders for a single American. Fool to think he could cover up the truth about Bergdahl and portray him as a hero. About par for much of what he did – anti-American and clumsily claimed as a big achievement.

Big scoop coming. Obama’s FBI and Justice Department knew in 2009 about the double dealing that culminated in the Uranium One deal. This implicates Obama, Bill Clinton, and Hillary. Stay tuned!!

I agree with Napolitano that it would have been good to have had an airing of all the evidence.

What do you make of this, Neo?

And I have seen nothing about Honduras’ government situation since then. (I must admit, I haven’t searched for any.)

A court could certainly rule that a presidential candidate could influence a trial, particularly when that candidate ends up being elected president, and could cause the judge to allow (at the very least) some changes in procedure in order to compensate and to favor the defendant. It’s a judgment call on the part of the court.

Here’s a discussion. See also this and this.

Trump’s remarks unnecessarily jeopardized the trial. Fortunately, not as much as they might have. But he ran an unnecessary risk, and said many extreme things, such as that Bergdahl should be shot. If he had uttered one word about the trial after he became president, the repercussions would have been very dire.

But it strikes me that Obama and Jarrett saw this as a win-win. They get to empty Gitmo AND express their hatred of America and its imperialism that is supported by our military.

Obama claimed that bomber Bill Ayers was just a guy in his neighborhood when in fact he spent at least dozens of hours in board meetings with him in that Annenberg educational non-profit. He commuted the sentence of bomber and FALN terrorist Oscar Rivera. Manuel Zelaya’s failed attempt to convert Honduras to a dictatorship was immediately met with cries of coup de tat by Sec. Clinton.

Is it not abundantly clear that these folks really and truly hate America, Western Civ., and even democracy itself?

Obama was visibly thrilled when papa Bergdahl began spouting Koranic verse in the Rose Garden. It was a couple America haters having a blast.

Then again, I am routinely surprised by the way that justice is administered, and rule out nothing.

It seems that every day, we are faced with another Obama outrage. I won’t live long enough to see how history treats him; but, I do wish I could write my version of it. Or get it published if I made the effort.
