U.S. Senators John McCain (R-AZ), Joe Lieberman (I-CT), and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) made the following statement regarding recent comments made by General Stanley McChrystal in Rolling Stone:

"We have the highest respect for General McChrystal and honor his brave service and sacrifice to our nation.
