No one would have mentioned his name at all if President George W. Bush hadn't singled him out in public. Lt. Gen. Stanley McChrystal, West Point '76, is not someone the Army likes to talk about. He isn't even listed in the directory at Fort Bragg, N.C., his home base. That's not because McChrystal has done anything wrong—quite the contrary, he's one of the Army's rising stars—but because he runs the most secretive force in the U.S. military. That is the Joint Special Operations Command, the snake-eating, slit-their-throats "black ops" guys who captured Saddam Hussein and targeted Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi.


General Stanley McChrystal's very detailed account to back up his request for more troops in Afghanistan : He is a West Point graduate...(Let's not let West Point be closed)...

My heart goes out to the men and women of our armed forces who have to serve under this scab of a president. He is Carter's younger brother from another mother it seems. Our soldiers are being offered up as bait for I'm not sure what. BO has no intention for victory as the whole progressive party... the new neo comms have declared surrender and handed our country over to the global collective.

The only bit i've heard about Lt. Gen. Stanley McChrystal is that obama is shafting him and his troops quietly. Even if you didn't tell he who he was, that's an easy way of knowing he's one of the best.

Remember what the leftist scum did to General Petraeus, who else would the left have it in for except the best and the most successful at protecting the nation they hate so much.
