He's a top U.S. military officer and he resigns after a f'n magazine article because he's worried what people think?? He says he wasn't really opposing Bush but the article is distracting him?? How can a top military officer in the Middle East be that much of a pansyass? Unless he was ASKED (forced?) to retire.

I was thinking the exact same thing. No way. I call bulls**t.
We are going to war with Iran for even flimsier reasons than Iraq and I didn't think we could come up with flimsier reasons. This is BAD.

Ugh. Is it January 20th yet?
I too highly doubt he retired completely of his own volition. I think there was some very strong persuading involved.

This guy is no pansy ass. However, there's no room in this administration for anyone who doesn't believe war is the answer to any problem we have globally...especially if he/she says so.
We just need to use all the weapons we've developed so we can buy more and keep the economy strong.
