No doubt McChrystal has to take responsibility for what happened, but if anyone spends any time with a group of guys once their guard is let down they are going to joke and make comments about their superiors. I think most reporters understand this, I wonder if the folks at Rolling Stone did? Also, McChrystal used the media in the past to send a message to the Obama administration, he may have used the media here to do the same. There is a renewed interest in the war and perhaps we should take another look at our military goals and objectives - which have never been clear to me.
