Thread Name: BS: US General McChrystall sacked for being honest
Subject: RE: BS: McChrystall sacked for being honest
Ever hear of a general name of MacArthur? Big deal back when.....Thought he was the greatest and from a military family to boot. Yeah, he was quite a guy and he told it like it was to him and decided to run things his way......just like McChrystal. Why Ol' Mac was such a popular guy he had the whole Congress in awe and kissing his ass. Got so that he knew he could save the world and do and say whatever he wanted. Why he even flagrantly ridiculed and just plain ignored his C-in-C.

Then one day his C-in-C, a little guy from Missouri in spectacles and dapper clothes name of Truman, decided he'd had enough of Ol' Mac and fired his ass. Harry Truman knew something that MacArthur didn't......the Constitution.

See Paco, the military ain't in charge in this country and sometimes some of the military guys lose sight of that FACT. Like MacArthur before him, its time for McChrystal to fade straight to fuck away!!!!
