Where Men Win Glory--Tillman-- McChrystal
If you have not yet read Jon Krakauer's account of the Pat Tillman story, it's well worth reading.

Here's what he had to say about McChrystal p. 290:
"Major general McChrystal was in chage of the high-risk counterterrorism missions undertaken by Navy SEALs, Delta Force operators, and Army Rangers....He was politcally shrewd. He worked under the radar. Vice President Cheney and Secretary of Defense Rusfeld kept in close touch with him and trusted him absolutely."

McChrystal knew about the coverup very early on

"We are sooooooo sorry you brought up the truth about how McChrystal and his Republicon Chickenhawk cronies used & abused a true American hero like a dishrag, telling deliberate lies to mislead the American Public about the republicon oil-profits crusade."

- Republicons

3. Having Cheney and Rumsfeld trusting him absolutely tells you something.
Is McChrystal one of Cheney's moles?
