I BET YOU WON'T HEAR THIS ON FAUX NEWS

Given what I know of McChrystal's handling of the JSOC, I think this is appropriate.

Washington (CNN) -- President Obama has agreed to waive a Pentagon rule and let outgoing Gen. Stanley McChrystal retire at his full four-star rank, a White House spokesman said Tuesday.

While the general is short of the time needed to retire at his current pay grade, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Obama would ensure he keeps his rank as he steps down.

A senior Pentagon official told CNN that he would have to have held his rank for three years before qualifying for full retirement benefits -- but Obama is waiving that requirement because of McChrystal's many years of "honorable service," the official said.
