Welcome to IWETHEY!

New US Gen. Fuller in Afghanistan fired.
Seems he forgot the lesson that he should have learned by McChrystal's example.

Fuller is a perfect example of what Dave Chappelle memorably called “When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong.” In the Politico interview, he excoriated Karzai for threatening to take Pakistan’s side in a hypothetical war with the United States. “Someone senior” in the Afghan government apparently told Fuller that he wanted expensive tanks from the U.S. not to defend his country but to haul out for parades.

“We’re giving them fish while they’re learning, and they want more fish!” Fuller said. “[They say,] ‘I like swordfish, how come you’re giving me cod?’ Guess what? Cod’s on the menu today.”

And that was it for Fuller’s short tour in Afghanistan.


It's not the job of an active-duty General officer to be yacking about politics to the press. These guys are smart enough to know that. Or they should be; if not, they've got no business having that position.

Cheers,
Scott.
New Could be he decided he wanted out of the job
that'd be one way to do it.
