Seems Obama butt boy retired Gen McChrystal doesn't like the way our now Commander in Chief President Trump speaks out calling it like it is.

I would be interested to know how many of our military lost their lives and/or were seriously wounded due to McChrystal's ridiculous tightening of the rules of engagement in Afghanistan

Anyone who praises McCain is probably a traitor like he was. That’s my default position until other info, if any, persuedes me otherwise.

Any former service member is supposed to be immune from any political criticism, even fifty plus years later?

I notice that all of these left-wing McSurnames are sticking together. What Son of Chrystal, Son of Raven and Son of Cain have in common are not good things.

Shaun Waterman - The Washington Times - June 23, 2010

President Obama said Wednesday he had accepted the resignation of Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal as commander of U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan, bringing to an ignominious end the storied but sometimes controversial career of one of the country’s top soldiers.

Mr. Obama, who angrily summoned Gen. McChrystal to Washington after the general and several aides disparaged senior members of the administration in a series of interviews with Rolling Stone magazine, said he had accepted the resignation “with considerable regret, but also with certainty that it is the right thing for our mission in Afghanistan, for our military and for our country.”

The president said he was nominating Gen. David H. Petraeus, the current head of U.S. Central Command, to take over from Gen. McChrystal “which will allow us to maintain the momentum and leadership that we need to succeed.”

The kenyan humiliated McDeepState. Recalled him from his post half way around the world and made him give up his sword at the White Hut. Now he carries water for Democrats? Gob-smacking.

McChrystal completely botched Afghanistan. I was there during his reign. His immortal actions included trying to turn the entire ISAF into Special Operations elements, killing AAFES resupply due to border traffic logistics constraints (note that we were continually being robbed blind at the Pak/Af border), and getting our people killed by forcing adherence to highly restrictive rules of engagement.

It was such a blessing when that Rolling Stone article sunk him and his crew of jackwagons.

You don’t get above Colonel without being a political POS. Just the way the military works.

I’m beginning to think the rot in our military goes considerably below these Obama generals due to a generation of PC indoctrination.

McChrystal: ...deeply disturbing to a lot of thoughtful people...

Indeed. Thoughtful people are often disturbed by the knock-down street fighting in the political world - into which McCain and Raven ventured after leaving military service.

With regard to Trump, however, more thoughtful people than ever in recent decades are thinking, "Thank God we have a street fighter like Trump."

Isn’t this the guy who covered up Pat Tillman’s cause of death?
