General McChrystal, Courageous Restraint Medals

Generals Stanley McChrystal and David Petraeus are criticized for a "staged" anecdote about buying bread for peasants in Kandahar. The discussion also covers a new "courageous restraint" medal for U.S. troops in Afghanistan, which would reward soldiers for not using lethal force, a concept the hosts find confusing and potentially dangerous for military morale.
