"You and your Republicon cronies used me and my death like a dish rag, McC, and covered up the truth again and again and again to advance your ugly Republicon Profit Crusade. This is just the Beginning your karmic payback."

4. What a fucking coward

"You can't fire me, I resign!" (and keep my big fat golden parachute)

5. Now he's off the hook - worst possible outcome to this CF

Obama should refuse to accept the resignation and fire his ass instead ("you can't resign, you're fired"). But he won't.

Now we can expect to see him make the rounds of the liberal media bashing Obama, and claiming he didn't get the support he needed to turn things around.

6. He OFFERED TO resign. Nothing yet whether it's been accepted by the White House.

9. good riddance to him

insubordinate sob

[Tailormyst]

10. He and his staff should be court martialed

Obama cannot afford to look weak on this sort of insubordination. That sort of thing can become contagious.

11. McChrystal gave bad advice, botched up the war, and is now bailing out

He is going to take his comfortable retirement, free medical care for life, and get a high paying job with General Dynamics. Before the end of the year he will be selling military hardware to the Army rather than destroying it.

12. Correct

14. You can't fire me - I quit!
