They go through what they call ‘Charm School” when they make the 1st star.

This was all calculated!

I agree. And experts agree that Gen. McChrystal is really the ONLY person with the expertise to lead the Kandahar Offensive.

So the question is: Would Gen. McChrystal sabotage his own Kandahar Offensive?

YES HE WOULD, if it was the ONLY way to STOP Obama’s overall “war plan”, fighting with HALF the troops that Gen. McChrystal requested last Fall.

A lot of American soldiers would likely DIE because they don't have overwhelming force for the Kandahar Offensive, and I most-certainly can see Gen. McChrystal sacrificing his career to save the lives of his troops.

very interesting post.

I haven’t really had a clue as to what to think of this general.

When I read he was an alleged Obama-voter my regard for him dropped considerably.

But if what you say is true - this man is a real hero.

And maybe that “voted for Obama” thing was just thrown out there to the reporters for affect?
