No way should deserter Bergdahl be pardoned. They explained Article 15 of the UCMJ just after he was sworn in. Soldier Up, Foo!

Number of pardons by recent presidents:

Nixon 962
Ford 409
Carter 566
Reagan 406
Bush 77
Clinton 456
Bush 176
Obama 64

You know you can Google this shit, right?

Thank you for sharing... - 2 points... #1. Pardons fall under Executive Clemency so, yes, the mem should have read "The record of Obama's Executive Clemency is already... TOO DAMN HIGH!" and #2. As a veteran I still stand to the greater issue: No way should deserter Bergdahl be pardoned. They explained Article 15 of the UCMJ just after he was sworn in. Soldier Up, Foo!" Sooo.... Let us not confuse the my two statements. It would be a great disservice to all who have served for the Commander-in-Chief to grant any type of Executive Clemency to any person in uniform who has deserted their post. If he was unhappy about 'his' situation he should have gone to his Commander and turned in his weapon and requested detention until he could have a military review of his 'feelings'... not walk off his POST. Understand?

One further note on detention... There was a JW convert in my Unit who, once a JW, went to the Squadron Commander and told him he was against the Vietnam Conflict and wanted out of the Service... now in that first meeting he refused to salute the Squadron Commander... the Commander requested he salute,,, the airmen would not salute...so off to the Brig for 6 weeks he went... as soon as he was released he was told to report to the Squadron Commander... when he went in he refused to salute... so off to the Brig for another 6 weeks... as soon as he was released he was told to report to the Squadron Commander... he wouldn't salute... off to the Brig for another 6 weeks... after the third time he was discharged. I respected, and still do, both men for the stance they took. That JW didn't just walk off the Base and desert his Post. He went to his Commander... he stood up for his beliefs and took what was necessary to prove them... that's what Bergdahl should have done!

If you're pissed off at Bergdahl then express yourself. Feel free. But laying some phony bs down as a shot at Obama is just cheap, lazy and quite frankly way too imgflippy. Understand?

hahahahahahahaha!
