Bowe Bergdahl

You don't decide whether or not someone lives or dies due to their alleged behaviour.  Instead you do your best to bring your people home alive.  

Well done President Obama.  

And if Bowe Bergdahl did voluntarily leave the camp; then five years as a captive in Afghanistan or Pakistan is punishment enough.  More importantly please question how on earth he was able to do what has been alleged, and thereafter put in place systems to prevent others from doing the same or similar in the future.  But don't under any circumstances, question his right to life, or question his parents patriotism, or question any of the loving community who prayed for the safe return of Bergdahl throughout his ordeal, or question President Obama for making sure that this young man didn't burn on his watch.  Being a Statesman involves making decisions.  This was the right decision for the right reasons.
