He was traded for 5 Taliban leaders, who would likely have been let go in a year or so anyway.
6 soldiers died in a manner loosely tied to Bowe. They didn't die searching homes or fighting his captors, they died during a bombing of their outpost, working with Afghan security, etc... I.e porforming their normal duties. Maybe had Bowe not gone missing, they would not have died, maybe they still would have died, but tying their deaths to this is far fetched and more a political farce then anything.
Agin, had Obama/Congress turned down the deal, everyone would be whining about how they refused to save this soldier, Yadda Yadda Yadda, what a useless argument.
The Carter Administration refused to negotiate with the hostage takers because they were terrorists. I guess that means Carter was tougher than Obama.
George W. Bush released over 500 terrorists from GTMO as compared to Obama's 5. I guess that means Obama was 100 times tougher than Dubya.
Reagan sold 2,500 missiles to Iran and secured the release of five of seven hostages. What is the conversion rate between missiles and taliban?

Oh, they will keep fighting. But we are leaving.
Then, they could have exchanged him after we left. We still have troops in Afghanistan. The timing was terrible.
They are stuck in the Emirates for at least one year.

No, if we left him behind after we withdrew, he would have been a dead man.

Nope. Hadn't heard much about Bergdahl in five years. Why now?
Because we are exiting the war..
Have you told the Taliban this? Have they agreed the war is almost over?
