Obama has taken the do no harm stand as he loves muslims. which is, i supposed, why he sent 40,000 more troops to afghanistan, tripled the number of predator drone attacks, etc... yes. your logic is, as usual...remarkable Well, it is getting them killed. Guess the generals are getting sick of DC head up their arse decisions. except, of course, mccrystal is the author of the current plan in afghanistan bag of rocks...that's how incredibly stupid you are.

McChrystal was stupid.
There is room for only one C in C Armed Forces at a time and the C in C and should not tolerate open insubordination. It's also against the code of conduct of the military to speak about military-government differences publicly. McCrystal was free to try and argue with President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, Richard Holbrooke and Karl Eikenberry while decisions were being worked out but once they were decided he had only two options-soldier on or resign. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = The Official Site Of The Deepwater Horizon Unified Command http://www.deepwaterhorizonresponse.com/go/site/2931/ GeoPlatform.gov/gulfresponse is a new online tool that provides you with near-real time information about the response effort.

Well, yet again it's all about what might or might not happen. The fact is that he was insubordinate and that was way off base. He knew this, but he was so arrogant that it didn't matter. His reputation will be tarnished for his dismissal (and for other things like the Tilman debacle). |

I was more than willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and charge off his insubordination to strange circumstances, but the more I hear about this guy, the more the bozo he seems. He apparently was involved in the Tillman coverup and in torture cases, too. He had to explain himself to Congress about the latter previously I believe. The more I hear about him the less impressed I am. Good riddance. |

Well, yet again it's all about what might or might not happen. The fact is that he was insubordinate and that was way off base. He knew this, but he was so arrogant that it didn't matter. His reputation will be tarnished for his dismissal (and for other things like the Tilman debacle). This guy still has a lot of credibility. You don't get to where he was without it. Yes, and he lost a lot also. It is clear he was very frustrated with the people in the White House. So what. He should have followed the prescribed protocol and not complained to a reporter. That's called insubordination. I have already been criticized about my guess that he will say Obama wants to get out before the job was done. (disagreeing with the timetable was what I said) Fortunately that guess will be tested on Sunday I imagine so we will know pretty quickly Sorry, no idea what you're talking about.... something is happening on Sunday re the general? |
