I see the wingnuts want to pretend that McCrystals offense is limited to criticizing Obama
McCrystal criticized the entire military leadership and the strategy being pursued in Afghanistan. Bascially, he told all the troops fighting under him that their sacrifices were for nothing. Wingnuts don't care if McCrystal hurts morale and insults the troops and their military leaders.
I'm terribly sorry but the General is not quoted as saying that in the Rolling Stones article. Perhaps you could show us just where he said this. I just read the entire article, and personally I don't see where he did a damned thing wrong except try to win. Of course with the directives that had to come from the CinC I don't see how.
But anyway, please show us where he told troops they were fighting for nothing. I don't believe any combat General ever said this.
