McChrystal Clear
Yep, if I sat around with my staff yakking to a reporter from an international rock n’ roll editorial, snacking on the crudite platter and trash-talking my boss and various high ranking colleagues, I’d be out of a job, too. Motive? Hard to say. Maybe he was tired and ready to come home but couldn’t figure how to do it and wouldn’t consider shooting off a few toes. So he put the whole foot in his mouth and headed for the door.
And for the first time since Obama was elected President we have a nation united. People on both sides of the aisle applauding the quick, decisive move made by a man who is finding it hard to please any of the people any of the time.
Though I feel the pain of the McChrystal family, they have no one to blame but the General himself. The rest of us should take a moment to revel in this rare moment of national solidarity. It will surely be brief and we’ll need to remember the taste.

Exactly. The second guessing has already started. But good point.
