POTUS - GEN McChrystal Conversation
President Obama was having that last, brief conversation with General McChrystal about Afghanistan and the Rolling Stone interview.
Things were obviously not going the way the General had hoped, and he was visibly upset with the President.
Obama could sense this, and told him, "I'll bet when I die, General, you'll piss on my grave."
Without pause, General McChrystal replied, "No sir...I've always said that when I get out of the Army I'll never stand in another line."
