Max Boot, posting on Commentary’s online site, was apoplectic about the Rolling Stone article that has the four-star General Stanley McChrystal on the carpet, mostly for things his aides said. http://www.commentarymagazine.com/blogs ... oot/318251

“What on earth was McChrystal thinking, one wonders,â€

Gen. McChrystal has more war medals that obama has Czars

Hey Gen. McChrystal .. you do realize the Southern Poverty Law Center has more than likely already Identified you as a Home Grown Insurgant like the rest of us veterans under the M.I.A.C. report

Damn... you are a goner all the way around

~White Guy
~Returning Veteran
~Dont know if your a Christian or not but according to the SPLC thats a VERY BAD SIGN ~ Hide any crosses if ya got'em

that goes for the rest of you P.O. Veterans too .... the Southern Poverty Law Center has got your number

Oh Oh... I cant Forget Janet "Incompetant" Napolitano .. A.K.A. Incompetano .. she know's you veterans are boogy men also. Run from her if you see her... or she may mark you with the New and Improved F.E.M.A. Logo

Ya know... the really funny thing is eventually you are all going to come home ... hahahaha ... and get this you are a fricken home grown insurgant as soon as you get out of the military

your really going to get a kick out of this new concept by the marxist, progressives, communists, liberals guided by the S.P.L.C

hahahahaha... you are the boggy men and dont even know it

From War Veteran with medals to run for the hills ... whadahelldidido

oh hey.. almost forgot to mention ... if I come up missing... "God didnt call me up to be Raptured" I am a good guy but not good enough to be raptured... more than likely the S.P.L.C. and Napolitano have me in Indefinate Detention waiting for sentencing and what ever concept they come up with disposing of my body .... just thought I would throw that jab in.. kind of like a kidney punch

Isn't Free Speech a wonderful thing America? Better use it while you still have it

General McChrystal and the Painful Truth

Wow! Who-da-thunk it? Is President Obama really so upset as to fire General McChrystal? Or is this part of a bigger surrender strategy?

Franklin Roosevelt engaged in a great give and take with his Generals. He forgave General MacArthur his ego as long as “Big Macâ€

Bad Week for Obama: Called out by Congressmen King and Barton, Senator Kyl, General Stanley McChrystal

Obama-McChrystal II

By Bob Parks

This has been a bad last few days for Barack Obama.

Last week, he was called out by Congressmen King and Barton, Monday by Senator Kyl.

Now publicly by General Stanley McChrystal and an over-the-phone ##### chewing just won’t do… http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0610/38837.html

The top commander in Afghanistan, Gen. Stanley McChrystal, has been summoned to the White House to explain biting and unflattering remarks he made to a freelance writer about President Barack Obama and others in the Obama administration.

The face-to-face comes as pundits are already calling for McChrystal to resign for insubordination.

If the truth is insubordination, then… McChrystal for Congress!

New rules of engagement in Afghanistan

Rules designed to better protect civilians will endanger U.S soldiers, and NATO Allies

In concert with Afghans and NATO allies, American soldiers last month waged an aggressive fight against Taliban insurgents in the town of Marjah. http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Asia-Sou ... nistan-war

CASUALTIES AND DEATHS AMONG U.S. AND ALLIED TROOPS HAVE DOUBLED SINCE NEW RULES OF ENGAGEMENT
Military families back home want to know: Are troops walking into hell with one hand tied behind their backs? Are civilian lives being spared in exchange for military lives?

The answers to both questions are an emphatic yes.

US military commanders revised the rules of engagement and limited some kinds of tactical warfare, such as night operations and raids – in an effort to better protect Afghan civilians. Good public relations, the thinking goes, may matter more than good missile strikes.

If President Obama is to fire Gen. Stanley McChrystal the situation can become even more tenuous on the ground. He did not violate his oath to defend the Constitution, apparently sent the President a smoke signal that all was not right in the sand. Who knows more about the situation in Afghanistan than Gen. McChrystal? http://roomfordebate.blogs.nytimes.com/ ... -be-fired/

Reacting partially to his inability to sell his troops on the new rules of engagement, Gen. McChrystal, always a straight shooter and one to go on combat operations with his troops made the following remarks that appeared in Rolling Stone:

The profile, headlined The Runaway General, emerged from several weeks of interviews and travel with McChrystal’s tight circle of aides. Understand the vast majority of the remarks are quotes from Gen. McChrystal’s staff. http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/17390/119236

Some of the strongest criticism was reserved for Holbrooke, Obama’s special envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan.
