june 30th, 2009. apparently he slipped out of his camp and the terrorists grabbed him. over the weekend the president made a deal with the taliban to have the sergeant released immediately. in return, five top taliban terrorists were held who were held in guantanamo were flown to the gulf station of qatar. taliban leadership has proclaimed the deal a huge victory. so, this is yet another troubling situation for the president. first of all, mr. obama signed a law late last year that says congress must be given 30 days notice before any detainees at guantanamo can be released or transferred. but, there is some wording in the law that gives the president some discretion. in this case the president says he had to act quickly because sergeant bergdahl's health was deteriorating in captivity. second, the sergeant was captured under very mysterious circumstances. colonel david hunt will tell us about that in a moment.

third, and this is the most important as spcket of the story. by trading one american for five terrorists, that might encourage americans to be kidnapped. with terrorists. the president made an exception in bergdahl's case. reaction? fast and furious. >> i do think that these five, who were really far on the far end of the spectrum of bad guys in guantanamo, this is really problematic, for the long term, this is going to strengthen the taliban. our hand is obviously weakening there. >> it is disturbing that these individuals would have the ability to reenter the fight and they are big, high level people, possibly responsible for the deaths of thousands. they are also war criminals, these men. some republicans are also calling for an investigation into mr. obama's conduct.

citing the new 30 day law. but, the obama administration says it did nothing wrong. >> first of all we didn't negotiate with terrorists. as i said and explained it before, sergeant bergdahl is a prisoner of war. that's a normal process in getting your prisoners back. in war, things are always dangerous. and there are vulnerabilities. as there are around the world. >> in addition to politics, there is the emotional part of this story: sergeant bergdahl's parents from idaho met with president obama at the white house on saturday to support their son's release. do that. despite the intense political ramifications. but it is robert bergdahl, the father, who is also engendering some controversy. he has learned to speak the language of the taliban and looks like a muslim.

he is also somewhat sympathetic to islam, actually thanking allah right in front of the president. mr. bergdahl in a addition, i son in germany being treated by the u.s. military. >> yeah i'm proud of how much you wanted to help the afghan people and what you were willing to do to go to that length. i will say it again, i am so proud of how far you were willing to go to help the afghan people. and i think you have succeeded. >> so the story is very complicated. a number of reports today afghanistan. there is reportedly correspondents, saying how dissolutioned he was with the afghan war blaming

america for much of the carnage over there again colonel hunt has the inside story coming up. talking points believes there are valid points on both sides of the growing controversy. there is no question that president obama's actions will make things more dangerous for americans abroad, especially in the middle east and africa. but what do you do when you can save an american soldier being held in captivity for five years? do you walk away? possibly consigning the soldier to his death? i believe the administration, when it says had it to act quickly. a 30 day waiting period with thugs like the taliban could have easily turned into a fracas, but, in war, in war, hard decisions have to be made. and these five taliban terrorists, war criminals will kill again. there is no question about that they are extreme haters who will be welcome back to the jihad with enthusiasm. secretary hagel is wrong when he says this is a simple prisoner of war

exchange. it is not. these are top taliban leaders. enemies who bring death and destruction to thousands. therefore, if i had been president, i would not have made the deal. but there is a caveat. president obama wants to open avenues of negotiation with the taliban. he wants a cease-fire in afghanistan. by opening communications over the sergeant, the president sees an opportunity. but, if history is any indicator, the taliban will never stop fighting, because they don't have anything else to do. they are armed, fed, and paid by other jihadists. he they sit there in the mountains of pakistan, plotting death and the reinstitution of an islamic state in afghanistan. why would they ever stop? so once again america is in a nearly impossible situation. the sergeant bergdahl caught in the middle of it.

let the debate begin. and that's the memo. next on the rundown, the aforementioned colonel hunt will tell us if sergeant bergdahl did indeed desert his unit in afghanistan. his unit in afghanistan. right back wit ♪ ♪

jay carney. bergdahl's capture. >> it hasn't been determined yet whether he was a deserter. >> sergeant bergdahl was in captivity for five years, held against his will and it was absolutely the right thing to do consistent with our tradition in the united states to secure his return. the defense department will in terms of evaluating all of the circumstances surrounding his initial detention and his captivity. >> so carney kind of dodged the question. joining us from boston fox news military analyst colonel david hunt. so i know you won't dodge the question. was sergeant bergdahl a deserter? >> yeah. he was. bergdahl on june 30th, 2009, crawled underneath the wire in his fire base with water, food, change of clothes, a knife, and a cell phone.

he called his unit the day after he deserted to tell them that he had deserted. i have two guys that were in the briefing july 1st, which is when the army, the fourth brigade airborne of the 25th infantry division first found out he was missing, because he called them, and i have since talked to two soldiers who were in his platoon. bill, we lost 14 soldiers killed searching for a deserter. he left his unit in combat. it's not arguable. >> all right. >> it's not arguable and we lost 14 guys. >> let me ask my foolish questions here. where was the unit? >> unit is on the eastern border of pakistan. afghanistan and pakistan. it was brigade size organization about 2,000 people at this fire base. he was in a platoon. he was a specialist and,

again, in the fourth brigade of the 25th infantry division. he wandered away. we don't know yet whether he joined the taliban or not. but there is no question that he deserted because he made a phone call admitting to it. >> four guys who were, what they are considered primary sources who were there. and they all told you, all four guys. i want to be very clear about this. that the man deserted; is that correct? yes,two guys in the briefing the day that it happened. briefing everyone and two soldiers who were in his platoon. he deserted and walked away. you have been in that territory out there, that is no man's land. so, if you a u.s. soldier, you slip under the wire with food knife not even a gun. have you got to be insane

maybe this guy is crazy. sergeant bergdahl. i'm glad we have got the american back. i totally disagree with the deal made but i'm glad we have got an american back. we clean him up, take care of him, and then you court martial him for being a deserter. we can't keep calling him a hero. again, we had 14 soldiers killed trying to find this guy for the last five years. operations turned upside down. we did everything we could on the ground to find him, which we should have done. that's -- we have that obligation. >> even if you are a deserter the army code, the marine code, military code is even if they disappear under nefarious circumstances you go look for them. >> as we should, yes. >> we got it so the obama administration has got to know what you know and carney dodged it saying it's a state department play. everybody knows what you know, that the guy went out under the wire, deserter,

maybe he is insane, we don't know. okay? but we will know soon. what a chance they take by releasing five war criminals. they are just not terrorists, these are war criminals. these people kill civilians and will continue to kill them. all right? in return for this one guy. but, as i said, if you are the commander and chief and you can get the guy back, i wouldn't have done it, but do you understand why mr. obama did it? mr. obama is going to take a lot of heat for doing it, by the way. go. >> bill, we have got to do anything we can to get our guys back. you can pay money. you can bribe. you can go on and da doo a raid. the problem is we traded a deserter for five war criminals. >> right. >> and that's a very bad deal and it does put soldiers in the field at risk. i know israel does this. the french pay money.

this is the united states of america, and this is the first time in the history of the country that we have traded a deserter for war criminals. it's outrageous. >> i don't know about that. but certainly it is dubious and i think the president himself has got to address it pretty soon. colonel, we appreciate it directly ahead, juan and mary katharine will -- watters on who americans love and who they loathe. >> someone that you really hate in this country? >> the kardashians. >> kim does have some -- >> yeah, they are big. >> those reports after these messages. tell us about the amazing mortgage process here at quicken loans. we care about your loan as much as you do. we're not just number crunchers. i'm your buddy. i'm your team mate. i specialize in what i do, and i care about my clients call us for a mortgage experience that's engineered to amaze.

>> i think colonel hunt was onto it. the fact is, and colonel hunt said this, he's a member of our american family you can't get way from that. he's our guy. we have to bring our guy back home. >> have you to protect your

family, juan. the second thing is that you've got to protect your family, putting five commanders of the taliban back on the field they're going to kill people >> do you have a doubt we're going to track those guys and kill those guys? >> i do. at this point, that the obama administration is any will in afghanistan at all. >> tell the drone victims about that one. >> there hasn't been one since january. >> yes. critics concede, look. this is part of how the american military works. what is wonderful about it, it's not contingent on his behavior, but, it's not political critics of the decision. the afghan government has questions about this. they're going to have to deal with the starting five. they have questions about whether qatar is going to be cooperative.

james rosen of the fox network broke today cia had wing kwes about how this went down this, is not just about a political decision. and once again, as often happens, the white house seems to have a lot of questions and not be particularly on top of the backlash that is going to come from this. >> look. you've got this father showing up, looking like he's one of the taliban the beard and everything. and thanking allah in front of the president of the united states. i was insulted by that, juan and by his appearance. now we have tweets that this father allegedly sent out. they're bad. they show support for the taliban. we cannot confirm they're from his account. so i'm not going to read them. because we can't confirm it. just the father's conduct alone, you know what? it's something wrong here, juan. something wrong.

>> yes. wait a minute, wait a minute. the father was growing a beard to show support for his son. >> yes. he can shave when he goes to the white house. >> i agree. >> do you think thanking allah was appropriately? >> no. he can thank anyone he wants if that is who he worships it suggests to me he was telling the son, you should be helping afghan people, asking questions. and again, so what? >> no. i don't think you can blow it off, juan. >> i'm not blowing it off. i'm with american forces out there. we should be going after the taliban. i think there are a host of al qaeda that killed americans >> i didn't like the guy's presentation. >> i think bergdahl is entitled to a trial under military justice sim sis tim. we'll find out more about this

as he goes through the process. when it comes to the actual deal brokered here, it's been on the table for years. and my question is if you're going to negotiate with taliban and rogue states, whoever it is, why don't you negotiate? could we not have brought the number down a little bit here? >> we don't know what happened there i don't want to get into speculation. >> why can't we just say it was bad negotiate something. >> i don't think the was a good deal. i don't think anyone in the country thinks this is a good deal. all right. thanks for your perspective. >> won't you want your son back? >> yes. >> listen, juan. of course i would. but this is war. and other people will die. >> we should remember walker, bower, andrews, curtis and murphy. they died trying to find bergdahl. they're important, as well. >> president obama ordering

personal story segment tonight, a new book by our pal bret baier. it's called special heart. a journey of faith hope courage and love.

all about a 6-year-old son's battle with heart problems. it looks very emotional. how bret, his wife amy and their two young boys have dealt with a very severe ordeal. mr. baier joins us now. before we get to the book, i have got to ask you about a story that's really slipped under because of this taliban exchange prisoner exchange and that's president obama's signing an executive order that coal fueled plants have to cut emissions over the next, what, 16 years, correct? >> that's right. >> all right. so, let's just run it down methodically. it's going to hurt the economy, right? >> well, that's what several coal industry lobbying firms and the chamber of commerce say. the environmental groups and the e.p.a. say eventually it will be a benefit for energy efficiency. but in the short-term it's going to hurt. >> because the coal plants have to spend money to cut the emissions. >> clearly. >> they are going to have to

charge more to the consumer to cover that expense. and it they may lay off people, right? >> definitely. the estimates are huge. >> all right. so that's number one. not good for the economy in the short-term. however, if you get cleaner alternative energy to take over, maybe in the long term it works. does the government get any money itself from imposing fines on coal powered plants that don't gut emissions enough. >> not really. not at the front side much the estimates are that this is going to cost anywhere from 13 to $17 billion a year to some $50 billion a year, according to the chamber of commerce. now, the e.p.a. says, again, in the long term, it's going to pay off o. there are no penalties that are paid upfront. >> so the government doesn't derive any money and all of that expense that you just mentioned is paid for by the private energy companies. the coal companies. they have to pick it up. so states like west virginia. they are going to get hammered. there is no doubt about it. >> and electric bill also go

up. the e.p.a. administrator conceded that saying 2 to $300 a year for the average family. >> now, on the positive side the air in the u.s. will be cleaner if this happens and it will. unless it is rescinded by the next president. and, number two, it's a legacy issue for president obama. it's good for him because is he is making the environmentalists happy. >> the e.p.a. estimates that for every dollar invested americans will reap $7 in health benefits, again, long term. for president obama, politically, this is all about legacy. name one democrat in this election cycle that this will help there not one. >> he putting out or fulfilling a campaign promise that he is going to deal with the global warming stuff and the environment. okay. got it the book special heart, just really quickly. your first son was born with heart defects, okay? he is now 6 years old. the first six years of his life have been basically medical problems one after

another. correct? >> yeah. >> born -- he didn't have -- he was given a clean bill of health and within 24 hours the doctor came in and said he had five congenital heart defects and if he he didn't have surgery in the next few days, he would die. that first surgery was when he was 12 days old. the second one at 10 months old and the 30 one giavasis atlanta september. he has had three open heart surgeries. seven angio plastics and the stomach surgery. so he has been in the hospital a lot. but, he is doing great. >> so is he healthy now as we speak. but, what is the emotional toll that has been imposed on the little boy? what is that? >> it's heavy. and going through that, i can tell you this last time it was a challenge to be able to figure out how he could own it. so we brought his cardiologist into his kindergarten class and he started holding essentially t press conference, his open heart surgeries from the kids. and she hands out a stethoscope and he showed

them his scar. now, he thinks when he goes in, he gets more super powers. and. >> so pauly now has turned a negative into a positive in his own mind? >> yeah. >> can you do everything that other children can do? >> yeah. can he run around. he can't play football or something that hits his chest. maybe ice hockey. >> so contact sports he can't do. >> but everything else. i mean nonstop. >> when you read the book it will make you cry. so it mub have -- must have been have been hard for you and your wife we live the book because it's a very emotional book. >> we decided that we thought that this journal which really the genesis of it was he emails that i sent to family and friends through all of this. but, we thought that it could help people going through tough times. everybody has something. everybody has something. >> this is big though. >> ours was a little bit bigger, maybe. but there are other big things out there. this is how we got through it. >> that's how robin roberts' book is written. >> you concentrate on faith.

you both are religious people you and your wife. >> we were raised catholic. part time catholics i would say in the beginning but full time now. >> you believe that helped you? >> really helped. the power of prayer, i think is important for us. again, everybody has something different. >> but it helped you? >> tremendously. >> it helped you and your wife to get through it? >> tremendously. >> that's an important lesson, i think. >> final thing is that fox news helped you? >> amazingly. it is a family. we talk about it here but one of the first calls i got was from roger ailes. he said i'm with you. no matter what happens. and that was 12 days into the whole -- the first operation. it's been amazing to watch the family of fox come together throughout this whole thing. >> so they have been basically providing you with emotional but also material support so that your son would get through this. >> sure. >> a lot of companies wouldn't do that. >> no. that's true. it's been a blessing. one of the many blessings. the other reason we wrote

the book one out of 100 kids is born with a congenital heart defect. one out of 100. half of them have to have surgery or procedure in the first six months. >> anybody who knows any child -- everybody should read the book. it's a good book. all right, baier. i appreciate you coming. in i can't make fun of you tonight. >> you can try. >> i will save it for next week. >> all right, thanks, bill. >> there he is. when we come right back, bernie goldberg on hillary clinton's new book which discusses her role in the benghazi debacle. heroes and villains who they heroes and villains who they like and who

clinton's book is trying to get out in front of the benghazi deal. is that smart? >> i think it is. you get the benghazi chapter out of the way now. you get the rest of the book out of the way in a few days you get all of the controversial stuff out of the way now. when some republican has the gull to bring up benghazi some time down the road after she announces and not if she announces but when she announces for president you say we dealt with all of that in june of 2014. and the media, that is anxious for another historical presidential candidate i think will cover for her. >> all right. now, i'm going to -- you are hillary clinton: you are hillary clinton, you want to go change. you are her, okay? and i'm the republican guy or gal running against hillary clinton.

>> all right. >> madam secretary, can i ask you a simple question because as you know i'm a simple man or woman. you were the head of the state department. benghazi, libya happened, even though your state department was warned about bad security by both the ambassador himself who died and british intelligence who was attacked in benghazi and you didn't do anything about that why should we elect you president of the united states when you couldn't run your own state department. >> if you plan to use four dead americans for your cheap political gain then do you that and i'm not going to take part in that. now, i want to make clear to the people watching us, bill. >> that you are answering as she would. >> >> don't you think if that were the position and i'm the candidate i wouldn't back away. i would say you are not answering the question.

you ran the state department inefficiently and now you are asking for a much, much bigger job. if you couldn't control or pay attention to what happened in your department? how you can run the government? why should anybody vote for you? put the dead americans aside? just answer the larger question. >> i think that's not only a good question but more importantly, it's a legitimate question. >> she can't -- >> let me read you one short part of what she wrote in that this chapter that was released. this is how she is going to deal with it she says i will not be a part of a political slug fest on the backs of dead americans. >> yeah. >> that's a nice touch. i won't do it it on the backs of dead americans. nice going, hillary. then, she says it's just plain wrong and it's unworthy of our great country. another nice touch.

great country those who insist on politicizing the tragedy, will have to do so without me. here's the point bill, and maybe you have more confidence in the american electorate than i do. but i think that might work. >> i don't -- i shouldn't say that. >> even though the question should be asked, i just don't have faith in enough the electorate to think they might say you know what? this is old new news, and they are going to have a mainstream media that is, as i say, that's always anxious for historical candidate who will cover for her they are not going to get behind this. >> ask the question in a right way about the bigger picture of her efficiency as secretary of state. and then you throw in a couple other things that got screwed up, putin, the reset, all of that she is not going to be able to do the dance that she is on the micro. if you just kept it on that night. you are right. if you brought out to the big picture, i think she may

have some trouble. i would love to ask her to come on the program. and i'm going to do it right now. come on, secretary clinton and talk to me about this. we would love to here. >> you mean the real hillary? >> yeah, not you. you get paid to come on. you will come on any time. bernie goldberg, everybody. watters world on deck. who we like and who we loathe. watters with the answers straight ahead. the day we rescued riley,
