Dear GOP: Stay home July 4th. Don't wave flags, don't go to a parade, don't wear red, white & blue. You don't deserve it. #Bergdahl

While @BarackObama was working to save #BoweBergdahl, the president who sent him to war was painting. Poorly.

President Obama did not forget. He is bringing Bowe home.

The GOP, were for it before they were against it. This veteran that they sent to war has now been condemned by the GOP as a traitor and a deserter, days after they condemned Obama for no action in bringing him home.

I don't know his story, none of us do yet, however there is a deserter here and that is the GOP that has gone AWOL in support of a veteran that they sent to war.

Now he has been tried and convicted by the GOP before he even leaves the hospital, he has yet to say a word in public in his defense, yet he is guilty as charged. He is a US soldier and his family is receiving death threats. What the hell has this country become.
I for one am embarrassed and ashamed.
