NEW YORK, June 3 (UPI) -- Former Vice President Dick Cheney says the United States overpaid, both literally and politically, by releasing five highly-valued members of the Taliban in exchange for a man who may or may not be a deserter.
In an interview Monday with Fox News' Megyn Kelly, Cheney said he believes the deal for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl likely strengthened the Taliban's military standing, something that could have dire consequences for America and its allies.
