It’s STILL over policy .
RE: I was hoping for a armed coup
That is pretty asinine. This isn’t a banana republic.
Astute observation
Its pretty asinine for you think we are not living in a banana republic
If he resigned or resigns, does he keep his military pension or does he forfeit it ? If he forfeits it, I wonder if he was coerced into resigning instead of putting for retirement ?

Obama is incapable of leading America to victory in Afghanistan. His policies and staffing have ensured defeat.
THAT is the ONLY message to be taken from the General’s statements.
All of the judgements and punishments being debated in the media are simply a sideshow.
RE: Its pretty asinine for you think we are not living in a banana republic
Have you ever been in a banana republic? You are going from silly to moronic.
Funny you should ask yes I have. I bought a shirt and a pair of shorts once
Really? How and why was he involved in politics?
Run with Palin? I saw that he stated he voted for Obama in 2008.
You're assuming the book is not on the way.
I can’t think of a single general who ever resigned and ALSO honestly explained why at the time.
I believe you are a liar.
Nobody could ever have been in a banana republic and equate that to life in America today.
Bye twit.
Don’t let the actual content of the article get in the way of a bunch of keyboard kommandos tilting windmills.
A serious lapse in judgement. How dare this faithful warrior and American come out front and center with the truth.
But to Obama, boldly stating the truth is a horrific error because he (Obama) Is a such a lying Marxist.
“Neither the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt. He therefore is the truest friend to the liberty of his country who tries most to promote its virtue, and who, so far as his power and influence extend, will not suffer a man to be chosen into any office of power and trust who is not a wise and virtuous man.” Samuel Adams
“The liberties of our Country, the freedom of our civil constitution are worth defending at all hazards: And it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have receiv’d them as a fair Inheritance from our worthy Ancestors: They purchas’d them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and blood; and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us without a struggle; or be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men.” - Samuel Adams

He will offer his resignation and Obama will refuse to let him go.
Then McChrystal will get the manpower, resources, and changes he wants.
If it doesn't go this way, other generals will resign; like Petraeus who wrote the book on counter-insurgencies.
I'll bet on Obama being stupid and create another disaster for himself.
