Obama and McChrystal meet in Copenhagen.

This reminds me of Truman meeting MacArthur on Wake Island during the Korean War.

According to a news account I saw, McChrystal "had business in London" and so deigned to meet the President in Copenhagen. Why didn't Obama tell him to report in Washington for a conversation?

The generals may be building to a showdown with the president, to assert superiority in decision making.

Truman subsequently fired MacArthur. I hope Obama is ready to seize the opportunity to be Commander in Chief.
