Hey Everybody — Shut Up About Bowe Bergdahl
https://news.vice.com/article/hey-everybody-shut-up-about-bowe-bergdahl
Amid all the extremely loud controversy surrounding Bowe Bergdahl's release from the Taliban, there’s one thing on which all Americans seem to agree at the top of their lungs: “Every single thing related to this Bowe Bergdahl incident is about me and my politics!â€
It’s getting embarrassing.
The political circus surrounding the exchange is reminiscent of soccer (and/or football) hooligans fighting in the streets, in that it has little to do with the facts of the actual match. Instead, the hooligans are out in force for some quasi-organized mob violence, in which they get to beat the crap out of others for the crime of sporting the wrong team colors. Everyone on Team Red and Team Blue seems to be grabbing whatever’s available and swinging with wild abandon, connecting with anything they can hit.
“I’m gonna smash that guy’s face in with this weak-ass Iran-Contra analogy!â€
Another leftist screed from the Vice.com.

This dude needs to get out of his political echo chamber. I don't give a @#$% about Bergdahl's politics, and never did. That he deserted, yes; that he may have been a traitor (and I'm fine if it turns out that this accusation cannot be proved, or is disproved), yes. But I don't care whether a deserter in a time of war is "liberal" or "conservative"; partisan politics are irrelevant when on the battlefield facing an enemy.
