“”it is better for military advice to come up through the chain of command”
What better military advice could a commander in Chief get than that from his boots on the ground general?
“Listen. The President is really, really pissed about the Olympics. And he’s decided to take it out on you, General. Sorry. It’s the Chicago way.”
What a bunch of B@st@rds.
You people in The White House are killing our Soldiers!!!!!
[”it is better for military advice to come up through the chain of command]
Line up 10 people in a row, whisper something in the first one’s ear and tell them to pass it on.......wait and listen to what the last one says.....
What was the word on Jones before he signed on with this bunch?
Isn’t calling out the General in the media the same tactic? Shouldn’t this be done in private through the chain of command?
Dems love pubbie whistleblowers. They don’t much like it the other way.

“We will be examining different options,” said Jones, a retired Marine general and former Supreme Allied Commander Europe. “And I’m sure General McChrystal and General [David] Petraeus and Admiral [Mike] Mullen will be willing to present different options and different scenarios in this discussion that we’re having.”

We don’t like your assessment. We don’t want to do it your way. Give us one they’ll like at the State Dept and the DoJ.
Oh- and the ACLU too. Be sure to get their ideas on how to wage war.

Obama is stalling and he sends Jones out to make this statement that really means absolutely nothing. Obama needs to either $hit or get off the pot. Either supply McChrystal with what he needs or get the hell out.
The “chain of command” at present leads to a phony “commander in chief”.
Your "Muslim in Chief" has emboldened them with the suicidal ROE.. They just attacked a FOB and killed 8 service members.. Fifty Three KIA since august..
Barry Hussein has made sitting ducks out of our troops.
Thanks alot libtards and "moderates" You've elected the enemy.
Pray for our troops..
Maybe Nancy Pelosi could invite the Taliban over to her San Francisco mansion for tea. She could show them her collection of tea cozies. I'm sure the Taliban will be so impressed, they will surrender immediately and turn over their arms.
Oh, so....in other words (leftist translation)....they’re telling McChrystal to STFU. McChrystal and any other general that might want to go ‘on record’.
How very not surprising, coming from a CIC that’s afraid to be in the presence of the average military person cause he’s afraid that they DO see right through him.
And he’s right.
And when the “Chain of Command” doesn’t respond a good leader does what he must to protect his troops, whether from the enemy or spineless, cowardly, and honorless politicians.
Gen Jones has sold us out. Jones, Obama, Pelosi, Reid: same kettle of fish, all rotten.
This Administration had better start listening to its officers in the field.
