- General McKiernan leaves because he knows it is impossible to cover and protect him men scattered all over Afghanistan. When things start going bad , I don't want to hear anyone blame it on Bush. Now would be a good time for president Bush to come forward and tell America that he thinks Obama is a fool........................................................................

- enjoylife63 and all the other Jimmy Carter and Obama bashers are, thank God, slowly retreating into the sunset. Jimmy Carter, by the way, is one of the most admirable and decent men to sit in the White House in my lifetime (I remember FDR) and while his Republican counterparts were trying to increase their earnings after leaving the presidency, he was working to build homes for the homeless and save African children from disease and death. A wimp indeed.

- "Yes, our strategy is shifting to position of weakness. We have the next wimp Jimmy Carter in charge....Obama."
No, the fact that these wars are still going on after all these years, means George W. Bush wasn't exactly FDR or Truman. - Reply to this comment
- To whosaid1, nancy_naive, and gravyboat45:
CBS has rewritten the article since I first saw it, in the version I saw they mentioned General McCrystal is taking over for General McKiernan. "MAC" is a special forces general.
In other words, the administration realizes that conventional operations---as McKiernan practices---are NOT sufficient in neutralizing the Taliban! Therefore, "MAC" is being brought
in to apply the type of operations which HE has been trained to employ!
Also, I qualified my statement by saying---which is totally correct---that a new, incoming president has every right and responsibility to employ the field commanders of his choice!
Under these cited circumstances, I say again, that replacing McKiernan does NOT negatively reflect upon HIM! He was left short-handed from the beginning AND the Taliban have launched INCREASED activities! This is not McKiernan's fault!
Under OTHER circumstances, I would entirely AGREE with the points you were making!
Under the current situation, I do NOT! - Reply to this comment
