    As the New Year approaches and our major holidays have passed. It absolutely infuriates me how America has all but forgotten SGT Bowe Bergdaghl. A young man being held against his will for almost half a decade.

    Sgt Bowe Bergdahl - America is Waiting for You « Please Support our U.S. Army Soldier who is currently being held as a POW.

    I would like to encourage anyone reading this or checking out the above link (as an example, there are many) to email or call your congressional reps and ask them what the hell is going on? Four years and 5 months + as of right now! He’s paying a penance for what?

    There is a litany of negative back-seat quarterback comments about his situation and how it happened. They are all mis-informed ignorant people – don’t be one of them. Don’t forget he was 23 yrs old when this happened. I challenge anyone to tell me they made all the right decisions when they were that age. There is way more to his situation that will come out if he’s ever released. The problem now is there are so many people that could have made a difference, but didn’t. If he dies there will be a letter, a speech, some cheesy statement from our “leadership” expressing how they exhausted all resources, but just couldn’t get him back (yea right) and it will be yesterday’s news. Don’t let this happen. Make them remember and do something about his detainment.

    Bowe Teusdays!

    FWIW, they have a Facebook page also for those on there. Every Tuesday I share their Bowe Tuesday post. I encourage everyone here to do the same. Lets show Bowe and his family some love, Texas style!

    Not sure why its getting turned sideways but here's the story. For the holidays, my employer had a door decoration contest and this is the door I decorated. Just a few things that are near and dear to me. It was voted as Best Theme by my coworkers. It was even referred to by one of my coworkers as the downer door because it really made people think about things they normally don't think of.

    Prisoner exchanges were once routine in warfare throughout the ages. Usually one-for-one, or several for a really important player.

    Eventually, the USA made a hard and fast rule to never negotiate with terrorists. In practice, that usually worked, and it was a good deterrent until the terrorists stood fast.

    Glad to see the boy returned safely, but we gave up five of them for one of ours. Five "important" Taliban players for the only American known to still be held in captivity.

    The International Red Cross played no role in this. It was done through a Muslim middle man -- Qatar.

    Now, they will do to us what they have done elsewhere for years, take one of ours, and demand one hundred of theirs in return.

    That Soldier should have been rescued by U.S. Forces with the same amount of effort and violence used to kill Bin Laden.

    Think about that. A U.S. Soldier was less important than finding, fixing, and killing Osama bin Ladin.

    The USA broke to the will of Islamo-Fascist goat fucking Tyrants.

    And our President welcomes the boy's parents to the White House.

    Looked like a Hippie reunion.

    Glad hes released, but now all American military and citizens are open game for these yoyos. It will be interesting what all comes out from him since they say he left the base on his own. Wonder if the truth will ever come out.

    His father is a Muslim sympathizer. Look at the (now deleted) shit he posted on Twitter. If you can make sense of all that Twitter garbage, check one of the entries on May 28th. According to him by way of Bowe, the US was unjustly killing Afghan children.

    There is also this:

    I don't think we'll ever know the truth on this one. The military will conduct a half ass inquiry, Obama and his media will tout "hero" and "POW" to avoid focus on all the political fire burning and distract the low information voters until mid-terms, and the dust will settle, back to business as usual.

    Just wonder how many Americans will be killed by those men, and those they will inspire and lead that we negotiated his release for?

    So much for our not negotiating with terrorists stance. Thanks bho, you may now have opened a can of worms our service members will have to pay for with their hide.

    Now that he is safe, I am interested in how he became a POW in the first place.
    Obummer has no problem saving 1 for the good press and not caring about the future deaths his hostages may cause.

    profound thinking about stuff
