The first thing any politician needs to learn is how to take jabs. It seems that is one lesson Barack Hussein Obama has yet to learn, especially since he is filling the Oval Office.
When Gen. Stanley McChrystal poked jabs at Obama during a Rolling Stone interview, sure, it was out of military protocol, but nothing in the published interview equated to his being forced to resign from the U.S. Army.
The only thing forcing Obama to demand McChrystal to resign was Obama’s own self-pride, which, it seems, he has a little too much of for the nation’s good.
McChrystal was one of the top generals well-qualified to led the troops in the unconventional battles in Afghanistan. Sure, Gen. David Petraeus has Ranger background, and is qualified, as well, but just not to the same level as McChrystal.
