    It's a war we can't win, so less losses is a plus for me, having a daughter in the military, thats the way I roll
    Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
    think about that

          Although knowing about the UCMJ and that shouldn't be tolerated, he did a damn good job over there and Obama should have handled it differently. I haven't read the Rolling Stone article, but heard on the news it really wasn't that bad.
          As far as the resignation, I'm sure he was asked to resign, which is the same as being fired
          Big surprise!! You giving an opinion without reading?? No Way!!


          Anti-Obama until the end huh?

          Nobody who read that FULL article would keep McChrystal.

                        It has nothing to do with the Pres. being "thin skinned". When will you guys figure this out? Speaking as a lowly ex-Specialist from 1st Infantry, I can tell you with full confidence that the people in the military are taught from Day 1, not only to take & carry out orders, but to respect their superiors and most definitely not publicly mock them. So what does that tell us?

                        1. General McChrystal was well aware of that.
                        2. The soldiers he commands look to him for leadership. If he's opposed to the Pres.' war strategy, what are the ground troops supposed to do? This is a distraction they do not need and a decision they should never have to make.
                        3. The US has always been commanded by civilian leadership. The military works for us. Even 4 Star Generals don't get to usurp that. This General has fucked up more than once, and been warned, more than once.
                        4. What kind of message does it send to our enemies when the General in charge of the theater disagrees with the President? I'll tell you... it makes us weak.

                        And for the record, I disagree with the Pres. too. I think we need to get the fuck out of Afghanistan. But it's not going to happen.

                              How'd I get screwed into going to this dinner?" demands Gen. Stanley McChrystal.

                              "The dinner comes with the position, sir," says his chief of staff, Col. Charlie Flynn.

                              McChrystal turns sharply in his chair.

                              "Hey, Charlie," he asks, "does this come with the position?"

                              McChrystal gives him the middle finger.

                                Nowhere in the Rolling Stone piece does McChrystal challenge Obama on his policy or his strategy. Nowhere is he insubordinate. He is, everyone says, a marvelous military man (although, given his role in the cover-up of the friendly fire death of Cpl. Pat Tillman, the former NFL star, he is a bit of a liar, as well). But he has an impossible task: a war that cannot be won. If he doesn?t know it, then Staff Sgt. Kennith Hicks sure does.
                                Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants

                                  You can't send more troops into a region and expect LESS casualties.

                                  I'm not sure what the point of this is.

                                  If Obama pulls out of Afghanistan he will be crucified for it.

                                      General McCrystal came up via special operation forces...and they are a different breed of soldier and most of them never become a 4 star General. Apparently he was very good at special operations/black op's and it is clear that he should have been left in that role. It is unforunate for him and unforunate for the Army to lose him...over such BS...but for the role he was placed in by this President he needed to be fired...for stupidity if for no other reason.
                                      When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

Speaking as a lowly ex-Specialist from 1st Infantry, I can tell you with full confidence that the people in the military are taught from Day 1, not only to take & carry out orders, but to respect their superiors and most definitely not publicly mock them. So what does that tell us?

                                            1. General McChrystal was well aware of that.
                                            2. The soldiers he commands look to him for leadership. If he's opposed to the Pres.' war strategy, what are the ground troops supposed to do? This is a distraction they do not need and a decision they should never have to make.
                                            3. The US has always been commanded by civilian leadership. The military works for us. Even 4 Star Generals don't get to usurp that. This General has fucked up more than once, and been warned, more than once.
                                            4. What kind of message does it send to our enemies when the General in charge of the theater disagrees with the President? I'll tell you... it makes us weak.

                                            And for the record, I disagree with the Pres. too. I think we need to get the fuck out of Afghanistan. But it's not going to happen.
                                            based on this, imo, obama should of sent a clear message to the troops by refusing the resignation, firing the general and proceeding with a court marshall.

                                                  And I have to admit, I haven't been keeping up on the war, I have a total and complete distaste for it. I know it's stupid at this or any point, I don't care who got us there. It just needs to stop. And any delay is unacceptable.

                                                  I loved the way we went after a country that attacked us, but we didn't need to hang around after that

                                                            If you are a super left-wing liberal progressive, Obama has disappointed you time after time.

                                                            That said, they will all vote him back in in 2012, because as much as Obama has not gone left enough, he is still a more acceptable option than a republican.

                                                            It really just shows how much the right hates Obama. Even when he tries to appease the center, he is still called every name under the book.

                                                            He is an intelligent person, who actually THINKS before he acts. He will be re-elected.

I know it's stupid at this or any point, I don't care who got us there. It just needs to stop. And any delay is unacceptable.

                                                                      I loved the way we went after a country that attacked us, but we didn't need to hang around after that
                                                                      I tend to agree. When the Taliban was overthrown and Al Qeada was disrupted...in short thrift... with very minimal losses...our forces should have been withdrawn.

                                                                      The same thing applies to Iraq. When Bush landed on the carrier that flew the banner...Mission Accomplished...it had been accomplished. In 24 days Iraq's government had been toppled and its military basically destroyed...with minimal losses...and our forces should have been withdrawn.

                                                                      Instead of withdrawing...we took on nation building in both countries...but the problem is we cannot afford to stay for the multiple generations it will require to build these nations and "win the hearts and minds" of the people.

                                                                      At any point we pull out...now...or in the near future the countries will go to hell.
                                                                      When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

                                                                            Inquiring minds.... .

                                                                            A brilliant move by Obama however, as the right can't really bitch about this replacement without looking like hypocrites.

                                                                                                That's why the mainstream media is focusing on the insubordination rather than the substance of the comments.

                                                                                                      Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
