Like it or not, McChrystal did NOT have First Amendment freedom to criticize the Commander in Chief while speaking as a US Army General.



But still, Obama should not have relieved him of command for doing so.



He was just answering a question with his honest opinion.



Would WE the citizens of the country rather that he lie about his views of the President?
 
of course he had to be relieved because he probably won't follow the President's commands when the soldiers are in some kind of desperate situation
 
I believe it's time to shove the question When will this war be over and won? down Obama's throat.

If my employee's had a problem with me, they should take it up with me themselves and not go telling the whole world.
