So Obama's got still another spill to deal with after McChrystal felt the need to share with a reporter from Rolling Stone?
And here's still another episode of Obama putting Stanley in his place. Maybe someone in the White House convinces Obama to cut McChrystal loose. If he's true to form, though, what we'll see is a replay, with Obama -- who is more about tough love -- taking the General to the woodshed (yet again), then turning the other cheek.
Update: Okay, missed the boat on the prediction. Still, looking back, people won't remember Stanley shooting his mouth off. They'll look at the management of the unwinnable Afghan war as a game of shoot the messenger.
Here's the shot of the last victim, Gen. McKiernan, getting the boot.
