mcchrystal

Obama IS-General Stanley McChrystal asked to return to Washington to explain why the commander was so mocking of the office of president in an interview with Rolling Stone. In pieces, on Friday, McChrystal criticizes Vice President Biden, Richard Holbrooke, and others. McChrystal has apologized for those remarks. (Anyway, a tip of the hat to you, Rolling Stone's PR department!) [The New York Times] Peter Orszag, White House budget director and unlikely dreamboat, will leave Obama’s administration next month to join a think tank. [Politico] Tomorrow, Obama is expected to announce that gay federal employees are now entitled to take three months of unpaid leave in order to care for their children or a sick same-sex spouse. (It’s a reinterpretation of the Family and Medical Leave Act.) [The Washington Post]-four-year-old Helen Mirren posed topless in a bathtub for New York magazine. [New York] Companies who provide boats to oil companies are petitioning a Louisiana judge to retract the deepwater drilling ban. They may get their way come Tuesday! [CNN.
