The General and the Community Organizer

But what is now lost in all of the hand-wringing and speculation is
the fact that McChrystal and his people have succeeded in doing
exactly what they set out to do. They wanted to plant the seed in the
minds of the American people that Obama is not up to the task of being
Commander in Chief and that he does not command the respect of the men
and women of the uniformed services… from the newest Private E-1 up to
the top four-star generals and admirals.

That seed is now firmly planted and it cannot be unplanted.

From this day forward, no one will have to tell the American people
that Stanley McChrystal is a true warrior, a man's man, and that
Barack Obama is nothing more than a… community organizer. Well done,
General!

Kudos, Paul, and thanks, Don. May I say "I told you so!" now?

The ACORN didn't fall far from the tree, did it?
"Constraint" medal, my ass...
