Although just speaking to a reporter from the Rolling Stone was in poor judgment, you need to read this in order to a better insight into who said what in that article:

And to give the devil his due. Bill O’Reilly said the same thing last night - “this was not a ‘hit piece’”.

I’ve read the RS article with careful attention to who-said-what. It’s more an article about “staff” not the General himself.

Still, given Obama’s notorious thin skin, I expect him to fire McChrystal over this. Which will push success in Afghanistan even further away, but since when has Obama failed to retaliate against criticism, be it from Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, or even his own military leadership?
