Your utterly mad overlords - today's edition

When you think about Bergdahl's father speaking in Arabic at the Rose Garden announcement, when you think about Susan Rice's "served with honor and distinction" remark, when you think about the trade for five of the most vicious Taliban commanders for which we traded him, when you think about Hillary's "It-doesn't-matter-how-they-ended-up-in-a-prisoner-of-war-situation," how do you keep the vomit from hitting back of your teeth now that the military feels it has the evidence to proceed with this?

Bowe Bergdahl, a U.S. soldier who has long been suspected of abandoning his Afghanistan outpost in 2009, has been charged with desertion, Bergdahl’s attorney has told the media.

Eugene Fidell, Bergdahl’s lawyer, told the Washington Post that his client was handed the desertion charge sheet on Tuesday. The Army has announced that they will update the public on Bergdahl’s case at 3:30 p.m. eastern time.

Last year, in an unprecedented act, the Obama administration agreed to release five top Taliban commanders in exchange for the charged Army deserter. The government of Qatar–which has frequently been accused of aiding and abetting terrorist groups–served as an intermediary for the negotiations between the Taliban and the U.S. government.

The Taliban commanders are now reportedly living large in Doha. They will soon be allowed to leave the country, because the negotiated settlement only required that they stay in Qatar for one year. Soon, they will be free to re-engage in their jihad against the United States.

When Bergdahl reached the U.S., White House National Security Advisor Susan Rice said that he served with “honor and distinction,” a claim that she still defends.

Your post-American overlords don't give a flying f--- if you get murdered in your bed.
