If the quotes we are hearing are correct, he was way out of line,
almost unbelievably so for someone in his position. Perhaps in his
subconcious mind he really wanted out of the job. Things like that
happen.

Or perhaps he has had it with Obama's BS and wants out.

Or, perhaps you're just an idiot.

I can't wait for McCrystal to have the freedom to speak his mind. I just
hope he doesn't suffer from a "fatal accident" before he gets to tell all.

I can't wait for someone with your pea-braininess to finally realize that
being a sockpuppet doesn't enhance your manliness.

No. You never know because you're plainly stupid.

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.

Your ego needs to be self-inflated to compensate for your obvious lack of
intelligence.

If he's going to run his mouth, then yes, I'd say it's time to leave. I
know your head hurts by it, but the fact is that the general works for
the Commander-in-Chief.

Yep, there is only room for one big mouth in Obama's government.

canuck forgets that the US is a civilian led democracy. he'd prefer an
oligarchy run by the rich.

so when a general mouths off, like mcarthur did, the pres fires him

canuck is kinda stupid in most ways...being a conservative

Some 20 years ago I had a boss like Obama. Always shooting his mouth
off from day one.

you were a 3 star general? who knew!!

The moral, if you **** off someone below you, make sure you can afford
to loose them or have them as enemies.

and vice versa

it's his plan. NOW he bitches he's not being listened to.

it's bizarre

Not at all. Obama hasn't figured out the enemy is like school yard
bullies.

gee he didn't have to figure it out. all he had to do is hire a
general who DID know.

and rely on that general to develop a plan..which mccrystal did.

you are kinda stupid...even for a conservative

You need to bloody their noses once and awhile to keep them
smarter. 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.

He was fires for insubordination, as opposed to what Bush did... fire people
for stating facts, Dufus.

Some 20 years ago I had a boss like Obama. Always shooting his mouth
off from day one. Clearly showing pretty quickly he didn't know much.
About 2-3 weeks in he called me, the senior person of the crew and
told me to "Do as I tell you, not as you think.". I just got up, on
the way out I said I would be gone in a month.

I picked up the phone and I transfered out in 14 days. On the second
week he tried to talk me into staying, saying who is going to keep
this going. I just said, not my problem any more.

He ws fired in 4 months. He tried the same BS on the only other one
that knew jack crap about how things really worked and he too said
enough was enough.

The plant closed 8 months later.

to loose them or have them as enemies.

Moral of the story... you lost your job. I know you're bitter about it.

Funny, I knew it was coming and cashed out. Then got another job. You,
still unemployed to a point you are unemployable.

How long does unemployment last?

I know this will come as a shock to a low-level and soon to be laid off
wage-earner like you, Canucki, but self-employed people are not
"unemployed."

Perhaps your buds on the right here believe the economical and political
crap you spew, but those of us who are conscious and sentient
get a whiff of your bull**** everytime you hit the "SEND" button.

The other day you claimed you were interested in buying a McDonald's
franchise.

Bull****.

You couldn't pay for a simple $5 lunch for a half dozen posters here.

Hahaha, you are pathetic.
