I’m cubicle bound but I can do the transcript:

I, me, I, mine, me, Bush’s fault, unexpected, I, me, I, I, I, Bush’s fault, Afghanistan is my number one priority, I, me, me, I, Bush’s fault,

If he’s giving another speech, you can expect the stock market to go down. If he doesn’t stay off the tv, my IRA is going to be worth 0.

[mewzilla]

20 minutes for BP 30 minutes for McCrystal

Bet Barry spent more time helping BP engineer the Lockerbie deal...

[Col Frank Slade]

I think it can be said with near certainty - Mc did not grovel.

[kristinn]

He’s late already.

[RoseofTexas]

MY GOD, they outta just give SOB a tv channel all to himself 24/7...TALK about being a shameless narcissist!!

[sarasota]

Does anyone really think he will make a decision on McC this quickly?

[GaltMeister]

I would not be surprised if Mr. Dithers comes out and says he will make a decision on Gen. McChrystal “in the coming weeks”

LOL

[cornfedcowboy]

THE TALKING POINTS ARE OUT!
MSNBC talking heads reporting about how poorly the war effort is going under General McChrystal’s command.
Also reporting that President Obama “bought in “ to McChrystal’s war strategy.

[silverleaf]

oh, he made a decision as soon as he heard some white guy who supposed to be working for him, dissed him

The question is, how to look like he da man and not McC

[Deo volente]

I wonder if he’ll have something to say about the historic plunge in new-home sales.

[John W]

Of course, the buck NEVER stops with this clown.

[GaltMeister]

There will be a slight delay while they spellcheck the teleprompter, please stand by.....

[Drill Thrawl]

Also reporting that President Obama “bought in “ to McChrystal’s war strategy.

He "bought into" it but didn't give McC the resources needed to complete the task. Management by fiat.

[hennie pennie]

MSNBC *is* his cable channel; now, if they would simply broadcast him, LIVE, 24/7, perhaps he'd not be in eggregious situations as he finds himself nowadays.

Or better yet, give him the GOLF CHANNEL. That will protect us all from him.

[kristinn]

CBS News' Mark Knoller Tweets no sign of McChrystal:

No sign yet of Gen. McChrystal yet returning for 1135a Afghanistan review session at the WH. That might suggest what happened. 6 minutes ago via web

[Raycpa]

Also reporting that President Obama “bought in “ to McChrystal’s war strategy.

Like the number of troops and timing?

[Siena Dreaming]

MSNBC is getting all the talking points early these days.

This shows that EVERYTHING being done lately is to play to the far left.

They are the ones who made Zero's ratings dive last week to -22. They're the only ones the WH is playing to lately. This whole McCrystal thing will be fashioned to shore up the left, not to win the war.

[DugwayDuke]

“Also reporting that President Obama “bought in “ to McChrystal’s war strategy.”

A variation on the listened to all the experts on deep water drilling?

[sam_paine]

No sign yet of Gen. McChrystal yet returning for 1135a Afghanistan review session at the WH.
