You're the one whom is trying to argue over semantics.
In any case:
Soldier: We Were Told To Keep Quiet About Bergdahl Leaving Afghan Base « CBS DC
I think that adds even more to this latest Obama Scandal.
Again, I ask, if my claim was "false" then who do you think was the government of Afghanistan between '96 and '01?
A band of thugs making a mess out of things does not a legitimate Gov't make.

Getting back on topic, if people would like to see who decided to trade 5 high-ranking terrorists for.
Exclusive: Afghan villagers recall when Bergdahl stumbled into their midst - The Washington Post
I guess "we leave no soldier behind" is a meaningless phrase.
Seriously, if the Obama administration honestly thought that, then the Marine that is in a Mexican Prison right now for making a wrong turn on a highway would be back in the United States.
Let's be honest about this, Obama wanted to release these 5 high-ranked terrorists, and he thought this would give him political cover.

Bergdahl was a hostage, not a PW/POW
Because an off duty guy committing a crime in a foreign country is totally comparable to a PW captured while serving in a war zone.
Taking a wrong turn and being unable to turn around, and thus ended up on the US-Mexican border is not a criminal act. The old signs that used to indicate the turns have since been replaced after this story gained national attention.
Or how about that wife of an American citizen whom is slated to be executed for being a Christian in Sudan?
Fact of the matter is, the only thing that was in Obama's calculations was that this would further his political agenda.
Cherry pick all you like, but neither of those cases are of someone taken prisoner while serving in a warzone. They were both on their own time doing their own thing.

Except you got it backwards. Bergdahl was very likely committing a crime whereas Tahmooressi was not

edit: enjoying watching the usual suspects with their mantra of "personal accountability" falling over themselves to excuse the guy in Mexico.
