Either way, Obama is the loser. If he fires McChrystal, he is portrayed as a petty narcissist who gets all wee-wee’d up over a few snarky comments, not directly from the general, but his aides. If he keeps McChrystal on, Obama is viewed as a weak nancy-boy who cannot stand up to a real man. Our allies in NATO are watching this very, very closely.

Obama wants to humiliate McChrystal to weaken our military.
He wants to see mass resignations from the Office Corps and enlistments-re-enlistments to plummet.

If the General is fired or resigns, as a private citizen can he do the talk shows and “opine”?

So are our enemies.
