Obama needs to be impeached, tried for treason and sent to Gitmo to rot with his muslim buddies. He is such a pussy.
To: kristinn
Knowing Obama, it will take him 6 months to decide what to do about McChrystal.

I'm not a real general, but my teleprompter plays one on TV.

Either way...it’s a HUGE mistake on Obazzama’s part...

LOLOLOL, the Chicago Three Stooges are hard at work with damage control, hey?
I wonder how many times that Barry, Rahm & Baghdad Bob will have to reschedule their press conference on their utter debacle.
This is really embarressing.
Pathetic losers!

U.S. sources tell NBC News that President Obama has relieved Gen. Stanley McChrystal of his command

No demotion. He’ll be wearing two hats like a player/manager. Maybe he’ll get a fifth star in return.

Fox news reports also that the General is out. So much supporting our troops by this President. Yes, maybe the General said some pretty damming things, but this President doesn’t have the experience or smarts to fire a top General.
