I’ve had a ton of emails about the Stan McChrystal firing and David Petraeus taking over – - and what it all means.  There are a lot of moving parts to what happened and most liberals won’t get it, at least on their first try.  But study hard Liberals, there is a mid-term exam on November 2^nd,  and a final in two years.

FIRST MOVING PART:  General Stan McChrystal becomes “disrespectful” of President and advisors – gets removed and replaced.  End of story?  To at least the 40% of MoonBats who still support Obama – that’s all they want to know. Delving any deeper into issues of war is bad – because “all war is bad!” [And Afghanistan is so far away.]

MOVING PART #2:   Obama picks Petraeus because he is the ONLY other general he really knows.  Therein lies a big clue that liberals should be helped to pick up on.  A full seventeen (17) months into his pResidency – with two (2) wars going on, a pirate hunt underway, and hordes streaming across from Mexico – Obama hasn’t BOTHERED to meet and get to know any of his 2-stars or 3-stars. 

Why?  He hates the military – and he’s visibly uncomfortable around them.  All liberals are absolutely convinced that soldiers are thugs in uniform – running around committing war crimes.

MOVING PART #3:   Obama really is a Muslim, and he really sides with the Taliban and al Qaeda.  The whole thing of giving McChrystal ½ of what he’d asked for – then setting a surrender date speaks to his true motivation.  Like LBJ, he doesn’t want to be seen as losing a war – the way Truman was seen, - but he doesn’t want to win.  The war is an annoyance, he just wants the problem to quietly fade off the newspapers. 

But you CANNOT tell a guy like McChrystal he has to watch his troops die fighting a war he won’t be allowed to win! 

MOVING PART #4:   McChrystal is part of that small group of warrior patriots – a breed apart – that very few American understand.  He was never worried about getting promoted or what his next job was – so long as it was a worthy mission and with his troops.  These guys think and act in ways most people cannot grasp.

So,. . . faced with sissified ROE,  unable to chase across a border [like Korea and Vietnam], watching US Foreign Aid $$ go to Pakistan and through the ISI directly to the Taliban and al Qaeda,  partnered with suck-ass worms like Eikenberry and Holbrook, – McChrystal realizes that his most immediate and most dangerous enemy is his CinC – Obummer himself.  He devises a cunning plan to take the war to OBummer – - knowing that OBummer doesn’t want any part of it, – and will do anything to toss on the hot potato.

MOVING PART #5:   Obama hates Karzai, probably because Karzai isn’t kicking back foreign aid and heroin money to Obama’s offshore accounts.  So instead of treating him like a respected ally and friend,  he treats him like an expendable puppet,  constantly threatening to cut the strings.  As a result, Karzai has to consider many options, since he has every reason to believe that OBummer is not a friend, not an ally, and that OBummer will sell him out in a heartbeat.

ENTER MOVING PART #6:   ROLLING STONE just wants to look a little more main-stream and a little more ad-worthy.  They send a team.  McChrystal instantly knows that no matter what they see – treacherous enemy, valorous troops, helpless Afghans, – they’ve come to write an unflattering piece.  He and his loyal staffers decide to give them one.  They feed the Rolling Stone team something so juicy they can hardly believe it, and they focus on nothing else.

Team McChrystal knows that if they show ~ just enough ~ loathing, disrespect, disgust, and derision of the Obama Cartel,  it will be written up in glowing neon exaggerations.  Understand that these guys are fully capable of talking to each other with hand gestures and rolled eyeballs.  They never had to say a word to communicate on these subjects.  It was all done for the benefit to the reporters.  The Team is setting up the reporters to write the story the Team wants written.  They are backing OBummer into a corner from which he will have only one way out, and which will make him seem strong for just a fleeting moment , then reveal him for what he is:  a coward, a weakling, and a traitor.

They know their boss will be fired – and replaced.  They’re well aware that Obama has been neglectful of cultivating his generals.  So they can be pretty sure who the replacement will be.  To a man they’re willing to take their lumps – even career-ending lumps.  There are many ways to serve one’s country – sometimes getting fired in the White House works just fine to further the mission.  These men are patriots and warriors – NOT scum-sucking socialist political maggots.

MOVING PART #7:  Having made his “presidential” decision, and appointed his “only remaining general”,  Obama is really stuck between two rocks and a hard place, – between David Petraeus, Stan McChrystal and infamy.  Obama cannot lose a second General.  Today Hillary looks like the toughest member of the Cartel, and OBummer looks like what he is – an inept Soros puppet.  Now what David needs [what Stan needed] he’ll likely get – including a nullification of the surrender date, broader Rules of Engagement [ROE], and likely permission for some hot pursuits across the border.

MOVING PART #8:   While there aren’t many lefties who actually bother to think, – those few who do are starting to see through the charm and past the teleprompter of THE ONE.  Now they see he is only focused on his anti-White / anti-Capitalist / anti-American / anti-Israeli / pro-Muslim Socialist agenda. 

Many are regretting their impulsive vote in 2008.  Doubt that?  Count the number of remaining Obama stickers you see on cars over this weekend.  Obama mania has turned into Obamatrocity.  Meanwhile the OIL keeps gushing, and the ILLEGALS keep coming!  Where will OBummer play golf this weekend?

Are THESE the “changes” you voted for 13 months ago?

Bowing to China - - - Bowing to Japan - - - - - Bowing to Saudi Arabia

How about our economy?  Remember how Obama was going to ” . . .spread the WEALTH around”?  How’s he doing in your state?    

10.4% unemployment is a STIMULUS?

  -  Obama campaigned on Afghanistan being the war we should fight.  Why did it take him over three (3) months to come up with a half-measure,  and then sell his plan so indifferently?  Did he define Victory?

 -  If “Health Care Reform” is so urgent,  why do just 35% of the voters [mostly the undereducated] – think it’s a good deal for America?   Why did it take a $300,000,000.oo bribe - for Senator Mary Landrieu to vote for it?

 -  were you aware that the CBO said ObamaCare would cost 2.5 Trillion over ten years, and still raise everybody’s health care costs?   Why is there no Tort Reform? 

 -  If Democrat members of Congress are being honest, why won’t they read the bills?  Why won’t they make ObamaCare apply to them?

 -  Why is Tim Geithner’s US Treasury printing money so fast?

 -  Where in our US Constitution are the provisions for TARPs, Bailouts,  government ownership of businesses,  national health care,  or Czars?

 -  Are you still thrilled because we finally have “our first Black president”,  or are you beginning to realize that Obama’s color, race, and birthplace are all secondary or even insignificant compared to his politics, his loyalties, his instincts,  and his abilities?   Do you suspect that he is a narcissist?

Have you begun to wonder ~ a little ~ if those stories about George Soros have any validity?  Have you begun to buy gold yet?

Is Obama godlike? Could be, Rush Limbaugh notes neither has a birth certificate or any school records.

But in fairness, Rush and others point out there are visible differences between Obama and God:

 -  God doesn’t think that he’s Obama, and he only demands to be worshiped on the Sabbath.

 -  God only wants 10% of your income.

 -  God’s Plan to save us is actually written down for you to read. But God gives you freedom of choice – to live your life as you see fit.

 -  God’s apostles actually worked for their livings and they actually paid their taxes. 

 -  God didn’t expect the Chinese to pick up the bill for the Last Supper.

And a final sad difference is that while liberals ignore or deny and sometimes even mock God, – they actually love Obama.

So what do you think, – do you know liberals who are “in love” with Obama, – or who seem to be worshiping him? As you drive around are you seeing more Obama stickers than religious ones?
