Monday on the communicators. Here are some of the reaction from capitol hill after the oh beauof Army Sergeant bergdahl. We will start harry reid. Eat military historiania histore name of john kingham once said excuse me im sure he said excuse me once in a while, too. Here is what he said. This is a quote. Soldiers when committed to a task cant compromise. Its unrelenting devotion to the standards of duty and courage, absolute loyalty to others, not letting the task go until its been done. Close quote. The integrity of the american soldier safeguards our democracy. Their devotion to duty is what protects this nation. Weve seen that up close in the last ten years or so, mr. President , with the war in iraq and the conflict in afghanistan. So im very thankful for members of the United States armed forces, that they do not compromise their honor. This past weekend our military refused to abandon its duty, fulfilling its duty to never ever leave a soldier behind. The release of Army Sergeant bow bergdahl. President obama as commander of chief acted honorably in helping an american soldier return home. Sergeantberg disergeant bergdahs an answer to his parents prayers. It is my understanding that this the wate wait for the parents been difficult. Youve seen his dad with his long flowing beard. He decided to grow that beard as long as his son was gone. His son is home now or almost home. Unfortunately, though, mr. President , opponents of president obama have seized upon the release of an american prisoner of war thats what he was using a moment of celebration for our nation as a chance to play political games. The safe return of an american soldier should not be used for political points. When a man or woman puts on the uniform as a United States serviceman, they have americas uncompromising support. Just a couple weeks ago, the junior senator from New Hampshire release add statement touting her diligence in calling upon the department of defense to, and i quote, do all it can to find sergeant bow bergdahl and bring him home. In april, republican senators the republican leader and the junior senator from pennsylvania sponsored a resolution quote to express the sense of the senate that no member of the armed forces who was missing in action should be left behind. Close quote. Senator inhofe, the senior senator from oklahoma, even said that the United States must and i quote must make every effort to bring this captured soldier home to his family. Close quote. President obama and his team did just that. They made every effort and brought this young man home. The request was made by the senator from New Hampshire, the republican leader, the junior senator from pennsylvania, and the senior senator from oklaho oklahoma. Yet some of these senators are now denouncing the very same efforts that secured Sergeant Bergdahls release. Theyre worried his release could be seen as a victory for president obama. As the president said, this is not a victory for him. It is a victory for the United States military and our country. Let me put that notion to rest then. It is not a victory for president obama. It is a victory for our soldiers, their families, and our great country. No member of the armed forces should be left behind, and president obama saw to that. Mr. President , there are questions regarding Sergeant Bergdahls disappearance and whether or not military code was violated. These are issues that will be resolved by the United States army, not monday morning quarterbacks on capitol hill. Let me say this for the sake of the argument lets assume that bergdahl did violate his sworn oath. What do we do . Do we mete out justice to an american soldier . Us, our country, as the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff has said yesterday and the date before, if hes done something wrong, military justice will step in and take care of that violation, if in fact there was one. I dont know. But certainly thats a better approach than having the taliban do it. I will just the Justice System of the United States a. M. , american justice, every of the United States army, american justice, every time. Whatever the results of the militarys inquiries, it doesnt change the fact that one more american soldier is home safe. What was the alternative . Would any american honestly prefer that a u. S. Soldier remain in captivity until all the questions have been answered . Of course not. In the United States, we rescues our soldiers first and ask questions later. Heres what rear admiral john kirby said. This is a quote thats so powerful. When youre in the navy and you go overboard, it doesnt matter if you are pushed, fell, our jumped. Ware goinwe are going to turn tp around and pick up. Thats what he said. When youre in the navy, and you go overboard, it doesnt matter if you are pushed, fell, our jed. Were going to turn the ship around and pick you up. Im grateful for the many people who refused to forget about Sergeant Bergdahl and worked tirelessly to secure his a public hearing is an absolute necessity. Theres is a general belief that no one should be tried in the cross. Rgdahl and what he might have done, it is to be determined by an independent army investigation. The strategic consequences of this decision need to be discussed openly. I am more disturbed now than i was before when i went in about some of the logic. There was apparently a theory that if we released the taliban, it would enhance the chance of peace in afghanistan. Prisoners, ithese would somehow empowered that part of the taliban that wants to reconcile. I find that whole concept disturbing. The fact that hamid karzai would call for these people to be returned to afghanistan and released shows you how disconnected he is from the average afghan. The decision to release these prisoners that are from what our country in jeopardy. If youll be jihadist it overd the jihadists all the world. They do not have delivered the skies. Led led the military that took young women into soccer stadiums and killed them for sport. The idea that this administration this would be a gesture of goodwill, it should offend everybody who believes the taliban is not the answer to the problems of the world. I can only imagine how young women in afghanistan feel today. We have just left out of jail the people who organized the hell in which they live. This whole concept of releasing these prisoners would empower a moderate elements of the taliban offends me to my core. Will let senator coburn talk about this. He is a medical doctor. I will let you talk to him. Does the administration espouse this theory . Backfire responded. Are we talking about the same group of people . The theory is that if we traded these guys, that would show the moderate taliban have clout. They got archives home. You do not need to resort to violence to meet your goals. What is the goal of the taliban . To lay down their arms and pledge allegiance to the constitution of afghanistan . This is a complete disconnect. Is the most offensive theory of all. They have been pursuing this release for a couple of years to enhance reconciliation. What youve done by releasing these people is you have morale ofmore out the people in afghanistan. You have your fingerprint on releasing eventually back into the country the people who organized the hill hell that the afghans lived under. This does not enhance peace. Its that the whole process back. Appalled as will fought and died to displace the taliban and keep their country moving forward and not backward, we let them down stop let me tell you what we did with our own national security. We compromised it. I want every soldier to come back. There is a price you pay when you are in uniform. When we release a prisoner to get someone else back, you have to look at the big picture. The price that we pay is that we have empowered terrorists. We have undercut our efforts to secure afghanistan. Have unleashed forces that will make it more likely that americans will be kidnapped in the age are. We have sent the worst possible signal to those who have been trying to change afghanistan for the better. In the video, which we saw, is there any reason that you believe it should not be made public . No. Absolutely not. Every american should do the video. Every american should be able to evaluating the decisionmaking process. What led to this decision . This is a democracy. I am not asking about releasing classified information. What was the reasoning that the five taliban being released would empower the process . Was he in dire straits . Did we have to act now or lose the opportunity. This is something i need to put out to the open. We need to look at the video and judge for yourself. But did he tell you why . No. That video.
