McCrystal is a liberal who voted for OBOZO and probably felt safe with a Rolling Stone reporter.

Bingo.

He threw out Yon because Yon is the most knowledgeable mil reporter, because McCrystal and company wanted a uneducated, ignorant reporter from a fluff magazine more noted for it’s glossy covers and photos......and kept the Rolling Stones reporter around for weeks!

What a maroon.

Very good point!

I was wondering if, perhaps, that McCrystal played this one the only way he could. Let’s assume that if he wanted out of that hell hole - he has 2 options, guit or be removed. If he quits, he is bad and gets dragged through the press in a worse way. If he says something like he did and gets relieved of his duties, obama looks like a hawk (that hurt to say) for 20 seconds and the general doesn’t look so bad. Maybe the general saw pending failure and this was his way of getting out without being made the scapegoat by the administration. We all know how well this administration places blame onto others.
