So you are “right”? and multiple media sources reporting the potential resignation of the Commanding General are all “wrong”..?

Certainly no one is pleased or happy with the apparent stalemate in Afghanistan - however it's patently obvious that obama is choosing to “stall” in terms of declaring any sort of amended strategy and then issuing orders to the military to carry out that strategy.

The article I posted was the original article. McChrystal has NOT threatened to resign. People that “know him” said he would, IF....
Other media sources took this article and changed the context, giving it more legitimacy than it deserves.

Yes, I am right.

Politico was the “first media source” that took this ONE line and ran with it as a done deal. It isn’t, but it was picked up, like so many other pieces of manipulated “news” by other “media sources” and not fact checked, just repeated.
