Sumbitch.
Some Commander in Chief. Ignores the Generals, and is going to ask Congress what to do in Afghanistan. I'd say dumb as a box of rocks, but I like rocks. Sounds like Larry, Moe, and Curly ..........

They're job is simply to do as they're told by someone with all the combat experience of a slug. |

That's not what that article said. A quote from Gates, "provide our best advice to the president candidly but privately." For a General to *publicly* campaign for his ideas limits his commanders options, and undermines his commanders authority. McChrystal should keep in mind, he serves at the President's pleasure. If he doesn't agree with Obama's policies, he should quit. |

McChrystal did, in fact, agree with 'Bama's policies. 'Bama said this was a war of necessity for the United States. Based on that 'policy' McChrystal supported his President by emphasizing the requirement for more troops. But, you liberals are not fond of the idea. Giving up seems to be more your style. Perhaps you should just call names. |

Perhaps you should just call names. Are you denying he became a liberal hero because he verbally disagreed with the President's policies? Shouldn't he have quit? Again, perhaps you should just call names. |

Cmon Jimmy Bob... they all have more knowledge about the middle east than than you or I. Is war strategy the only aspect worth considering? That's what Bush supposedly did or didn't? First, he's the decider, then he listens to his generals. Which is it. -- Nom=de=Plume |
