He violated the military code of ethics. He didn't go quite as far as to qualify for dishonorable discharge, but he went far enough. Even if it were his aides that said the worst of it, he allowed them to talk. There are some that only concentrating on the fact that they agree with what he said, instead of the rules he broke when he said it.

McChrystal needs to be sacked and Obama needs to do it. McChrystal's "OMG sorry sorry sorry..." routine is even more shameful. If you're going to blow your career to Tell It Like It Is, don't go whining about the consequences.

McChrystal’s “OMG sorry sorry sorry…” routine is even more shameful. If you’re going to blow your career to Tell It Like It Is, don’t go whining about the consequences.
