Out With a Whisper

I have to agree with Bob Herbert today, not that I was there the first time around.

"Robert McNamara, Lyndon Johnson’s icy-veined, cold-visaged and rigidly intellectual point man for a war that sent thousands upon thousands of people (most of them young) to their utterly pointless deaths, has died at the ripe old age of 93."

A comment from a Vietnam and Iraq war vet who won the DFC, Silver Star and two Bronze Stars: He was not a good leader. He let people die for policy that was a charade. I disliked him for that. He still lived a long life.

Just about sums it up.
