I hear being a general under Obama is a short term career job.

so was being a general under truman

and remember general shinseki, under bush?

Guess he might as well polish up the fishing rods and go fishing.

notice he never complains about the rich white frat boy who screwed
this whole thing up?

Bush fired or "retired" many generals for speaking out. I think Obama
should not fire him unless he believes that McCrystall can no longer
do
the job he was assigned to do.

Obama's ego will cause McCrystal to be fired.

He is a thin skinned little man, isn't he?

Actually, you short ****, several presidents have fired there generals
for less. Truman/McArthur, Lincoln fired several before finding Grant,
Johnson fired Lemay, McKinley fired Lemay, etc.

Bush fired Shinseki for telling the truth at a congressional hearing where
he was under oath. Does that count?
