General McChrystal Mocks Biden and Obama in Rolling Stone

[sandhogy]

the niger got his chance due to increasing numbers of african negro's registered to vote, this conglomerant of severely retarded negro;s will vote anybody into ofice that offers blacks even more in welfair with less in prison !

[ghahandi]

Afghanistan is an unwinnable war...if it is a war. Just like Iraq. The people are tribal in nature and will be at each others throats until the end of time. I listen to NPR every day an at the end of the McNeil Newshour, they pay tribute a daily update of deceased soldiers. Nine years and counting. It's all about the gas and oil. BP, Exxon,Mobil is who Americans are dying for. And now, Obama won't allow the media within 65 feet of the BP/Gulf casultys. Shame~ All for big oil.

[guionlawes]

77,700+ active soldiers in the Middle East disagree with the Obama Administration......he gonna "replace" all of them??

[tishhead]

@guionlawes he didn't replace him becaue he disagreed. in fact, obama has mostly followed mcchrystal's plan. he replaced him because he undermined the chain of command, and not for the first time. and yes, any of those soldiers who spoke publicly against obama, or mcchrystal for that matter, would be at risk of being discharged or court-martialed. mcchrystal should have been fired at least twice before.

[ghahandi]

@tishhead I agree fully. Obama has to rely on his top soldiers for guidance. Obama never served in the military. He added more soldiers as requested. The first thing you learn in bootcamp is that the President IS the Commander in Chief. For a General to talk like that in the presence of a Rolling Stone reporter shows a sever mental lapse. Retire his wrinkly old ass. O has a real General in charge now.

[blacksabbathgnr098]

jeese it was just a little joke. Even if the general doesn't like the President, it doesn't mean he's not going to follow his orders or perform his job well. People need to lighten up!

[corvettegeorge79]

The truth is the only person who broke national security and ran his lips to none other than The Rolling Stone Magazine was the so called hero General .

By doing that he put Marines and Soldiers and the mission at risk. The President was too nice to this four star fruitcake, he should be busted down to private and discharged.  Former Marine Rifleman SOCOM 1984-1988

[guionlawes]

Obama won't be around for another term. That's very clear.

[tishhead]

@guionlawes actually, that's not clear at all. he leads every republican contender in every poll taken so far, most by wider margins than he beat mccain by. his losses in the fall will likely be less than clinton's in 94 and clinton was easily re-elected. given the repubs disarray it's more likely than not obama will be re-elected.

[guionlawes]

@tishhead Don't get me wrong. I don't dislike Obama. I had just as many high hopes as the rest of us did and i realize he stepped into a huge mess left behind by Bush....but i feel that while we have people dying on the Gulf Coast and the threat of all out war on the Korean Peninsula and the Middle East, he doesn't need to be sitting in yet another town hall talking to 94 year old people about their health care. Although that's important, it's not the MOST important right now!

[tishhead]

@guionlawes first, if you're president, you don't get to spend all your time on the most important thing, even if more than 3 people could agree what that was. there has been threat of war in those areas for decades and we can't stop the world while those issues are solved. as for oil disaster, time spent does not equal solution. and i do think health care reform is hugely important, affecting the entire economy.

[guionlawes]

@tishhead well you're entitled to your opinion. Thank God we live in the United States!

[ReconB329]

If McChrystal tells Obama he isn't doing his job right, then he probably isn't. Look at the experience difference here, McChrystal was commander of Special Operations, with numerous war time accomplishments, what does Obama have? Obama needs to give McChrystal the proper tools, let him Command his troops, and achieve victory.

[2deltaactual]

@ReconB329 Very true.I think this represents the frustration of the US Military with our civilian leadership and their micromanaging these wars.Politicans will sacrifice the lives of our troop's just to look favorable to the public.GEN Mccrystal has commanded and served with the Spec Ops community and we are fighting counter insurgency warfare.I am quite sure VP Bidens son is no where near the frontlines and we know that the politicians in this country dont have to worry about their kids lives.

[tishhead]

@ReconB329 we have civilian leadership of the military. if mcchrystal has an opinion, it's his job to express it privately. he should have been fired twice before -- for his role in the pat tillman coverup and for undermining obama by going public with his opinions on strategy before the decision was made. what would mcchrystal have done to a subordinate who publicly undermined him?

[xxramblingsxx]

No matter what comment General McChristyal made, atleast he served. His service trumps this political PR slip up. The only thing Obama ever served was ACORN. Obama doesn't understand war, enemies, or the price of winning a war. He even refuses to discuss thins such as winning or killing the enemy.

[terminator007007]

We went from commander in chief on the battle field fighting a war to....commander in chief 2000 miles away giving orders to someone-giving orders to some other person to- giving orders to someone else who might be stationed in a Green zone away from any hot activity giving orders over a cell phone to a soldier in a hummer with an actual gun.

----Like Obama, or any one at the White house has any clue whats really going on. Gimme a break.

[stevenapoleon]

The bigger issue beyond the little mistake is what Obama needs to do to win a war. I think Obama is clearly not at all ready to understand reality of war. Obama is a University lib who can hardly believe he has an he commands. Those war planes over head at the NFL game are Obamas military. He might wake up and use it?

[jsmythib]

obama pays my rent and puts free gas in my car, how dare you insult him. Appoint Nancy to run the war.

[NCBelle57]

@jsmythib NO WAY!! OBAMA has not spread his wealth around, but he sure has gotten taken it from me to give to you to pay the rent, etc. HE hasn't paid anything! So don't give him the credit for you be a freeloader! THE TAXPAYERS of the USA are paying your way.

[jsmythib]

@NCBelle57 I was totally joking- The government has only taken money from me my whole life...I thought the Appoint Nancy part sorta letcha know I was joking../sick

[BlindHallway]

How dare the man for speaking out against our beloved dictator. He has been found guilty of thought crime and should be taken to the ministry of love for reprogramming. Freedom is slavery. War is peace. Ignorance is strength.

[dantheleo]

Who can blame McCrystal for telling the truth and his aid was right on point too, Biden is a clown without the floppy shoes. For obama to fire McCrystal just to appear as a competent president will not work, we all know obamas incompetent! The only thing this would do is to greatly increase the risk of lives of our military in both obamas wars

[ajack50]

why should this highly decorated patriot even talk to the incompetent demander in grief,biden and obummer should both be thrown out of office for treason and mishandling of government. biden doesn't have a brain and obummer is incompetent,the war will be lost to our enemy without General McCrystal but why should obummer care those are his people,muslims

[OrphanPaper]

thats it,,, beep me

[Winter077]

What do you call people who ignore the truth even after it's been handed to them on a silver fucking platter? Please someone, give it an official name, winner will win my homemade beef jerky..not kidding..

[1Guitarslayer]

more proof... obama sucks 

[TheWakaGashira]

Obama wasn't even mentioned in this clip.

[buchedda]

I support General McChrystal. Though somewhat unprofessional and inappropriate in that way, it did need to be said.

[nealhere]

Uhmmmm ? isn't that what makes the United States what it is? We are allowed to make fun of our officials. That helps keep them is the position of service where they are supposed to be. Let's get them humble again. Well done !

[624787John]

GOOD! SOMEBODY needs to tell the truth about the sick Obama administration. Thanks for putting OUR country first, General Mc, we are so proud of you.

[CrashPoliticsNEWS]

does it matter, he apologized, so it's obviously true... hahhahahha

[Boomer1947]

he voted for the kenyan monkey so he has no one to blame but himself

[ecoovert]

@Boomer1947 Look man I see the President as being incompetent just like General Mcchristal does but I would never call him a monkey.

[TresJolie7]

@Boomer1947 Another reTHUGlican racist white trash, small dick asshole.

[MotionFrequency]

@TresJolie7 Don't thugs lie? Don't thugs steal money. Obama sends 2 billion to petrobras, an oil company in brazil to drill for deep oil while at the same time telling us this drilling is horrible and we need to stop. My question to you is do you support hypocrites? Do you support a president that is helping out brazil and not the us? That is treason if I'm not mistaken. It's about time that you get off the whole racist crap which is all you have and open your eyes or perish.

[Sillyjake86]

Is there any damn video that actually shows McChrystal what he says, and not stupid ass reporters reciting what he said!?!?!?!

[NCBelle57]

At least there is one man in this country who has the guts to call reality as it is and NOT being a part of the political "good ol' boy network" of warm fuzzy free spenders in Washington! You go General! Maybe these tenderlings need to walk a mile or two in the boots of you and your troops, then they might not be so thin skinned about the realities of the war you are fighting and how their underminding you is actually HARMFUL to you assigned mission!

There are Americans who do support you!

[624787John]

@NCBelle57 YES!!!!! Amen.

[actonbath]

I really like "his strategy"..."Win the hearts and minds..." Guess he was asleep when his West Point professor was speaking of Vietnam......

[actonbath]

He voted for Obama....he got what he voted for.

He's just a paper General with no real combat experience and no real respect for authority. 90% of Generals in the last 30 years have zero combat experience and are just paper tigers aka poli-sci uniforms. The rise through the ranks using flat-out politics and brown nosing so when confronted with real world situation...they fail.

[videobookoftruth]

The only thing Obama did wrong is put this Traitor in charge knowing he was a hot head that spews at the mouth saying anything he desires, McChrystal has put our kids over seas at risk and that is what I care about!!! All but one General in our past has stood by the president for sake of troops and country no matter how they felt about him, fallowing the oath they took if they can not they need to retire. he has broken oath and law.

[stme2008]

McChrystal a Traitor to our country putting our men and women at risk for his wine ass cant take so many with war knowledge in white house crap what a spoiled brat Traitor put him in JAIL disrespectful insubordinate ass!!!!! he has broken the oath of military justice he has violated military Law. wine ass Traitor.

[Winter077]

@stme2008 Can you believe this guy is more loyal to the constitution than Obamafraud? The nerve!

[MetalDetroit]

@stme2008 OHHH THE IRONY - Now we have Petraeus to bail out Obama in Afghanistan. The same man that Weasily Liberals were calling " General Betray-Us " Fuck Obama and his liberal sheep.

[Dajuro]

McChrystal told the truth.

We should be talking about the substance of his remarks, and not whether or not he should have made them.
