I heard on Shep's show that McCrystal called up everyone that was mentioned in the article and offered an apology.

Everyone that is EXCEPT Obama.

RE: “It gets interesting when a president pisses off Generals and people in the CIA, etc.................”

********************

I think it’s especially interesting when the P.O.’d General in question is known to have initially been an Obammy supporter!

With Obama's statement on McChrystal, it's obvious Obama is attempting to make an example of McChrystal — IF you speak out against Obama, there WILL be consequences.

That's why McChrystal must be supported while he's being bullied by Obama for speaking out, or others who follow McChrystal will be too intimidated to speak out against Obama's dangerous policies.

In my opinion...

In this picture, it looks like Obama is lecturing him, not even giving him the benefit of even looking him in the eye.

And it looks like the General would like to punch him square in the face.

Just my .02

Oh please, stop that crap about no 2012 election.

Have you reviewed our founding documents lately? Our form of government is stronger than those who would abuse it.

Obama doesn’t have a choice as to whether or not to “accept” it. He may be the C-in-C, but he doesn’t get to say to someone they have to stay when their ass is already out the door.

If his “background comments” were what he truly believed, he should have resigned months ago.

The general knew exactly what he was getting into. He complained about the strategy once before and was given a talking too. He should have resigned then and there because he had to know that Obama was going to turn this war into a political exercise (months of study, not quite enough troop, a pull out deadline, absurd rules of engagement. Any astute officer would have refused to accept those conditions, H caved and decided to play the game.

Everything after that day is sour grapes.

I posted this on another thread. It seems appropriate here as well:
General McChrystal goes rogue.

Housing sales dip.

Judge slams Obama’s drilling ban.

Gaza heats up.

Blago is on trial and the dirt is flying.

Polls say Hillary better POTUS than Obama.

No Congressional budget this year.

Insurance costs rise.

Other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln?


Arizona secedes from the Union.

Texas follows... 23 additional southern & western states join Texas and Arizona...

The New Confederate States of America declared with capital at Atlanta...

The Second U.S. Civil War breaks out when Confederate forces seize federal military bases...
