From the 60 Minutes interview:
Secretary of Defense Robert Gates tells Katie Couric that the mission was one of the most courageous decisions he's ever seen a president make. He calls it a "gutsy call."This 2 minute video is disgusting in its sycophancy. I've never forgiven Gates.
There was no bigger Obama suck-up than Gates. Now he is an Obama critic? Give me a break.

Isn’t it good news when the stooges start to squeal on the boss?
It took no guts at all for Gates to push for open homosexuals in the military. The media loved him for that.
Gutsy? The biggest decision Obama made during the Osama raid was which card to play.
A day (7 years) late, and a dollar (54 Billion spent) short.
I never liked Gates, I loved Rumsfeld!
I have to agree, Gates is certainly a hypocrite, where was he when we needed him?
Hey the publishers demand something like this in order to get the book deal.
This 2 minute video is disgusting in its sycophancy. I’ve never forgiven Gates.
There was no bigger Obama suck-up than Gates. Now he is an Obama critic? Give me a break.

Katie Couric said this?
Katie? No, I wrote that.
The way you posted it makes it seem as if you are quoting Couric. Don’t you think your opinion should have been in your first comment post instead?
Yeah
How many entendres entendred there?
I’m only suggesting that Gates is politically flexible. He seems like a somewhat decent guy that stayed on longer than he should, and had to play the part of loyal Obama supporter longer than he wanted to.
Robert Gates took the king’s silver and then bit the hand that fed him.
