Fox News alert during Fox and Friends. No story on Fox News site, yet.

And he used too much grease in his hair. DANG! That wasn’t a nice thing. Let me go back and think some more. I’ll come up with SOMETHING.

[TET1968]

He will have to be missed by at least a family member......or a cat.

Suggest an image of the wall overlay any images of him.....the opacity setting on the wall should be about 30%.

[hoosier hick]

Thank goodness he was one of the “The Best and the Brightest”. I think a David Halberstam replacement (he died in 2007) needs to write a sequel for the current crowd...

This needs to be in breakings news....More important than Mjj

Nothing, and I mean nothing, is more important than MJ's death.

Don't you know the whole world has stopped and there is nothing else to report?

Now get with the program :)

[Carley]

The people have a right to know, that this man was evil.

[Fred Hayek]

Stereotype of the ultimate useless REMF.

[kellynla]

“As a Viet Nam vet I could say a good deal about this man but won’t on this occasion.”

Exactly!

Welcome home, “Bigun”!

Semper Fi,

AP Story on McNamara Death

[IMissPresidentReagan]

Sad. Prayers and thoughts to his family and friends.

Lot of death in the news lately.

[Ace the Biker]

May he fry in HELL!!!!!!!!!

Millions whose lives were affected negatively by this one single person will obviously go through several levels of reflection. From experience as a family member of a Thet Vet and a Vet myself, he is held in even lower regard for his actions before and after the war than that of the ultimate AirHead, Jane Fonda. She had an excuse of stupidity, this man was just a plain evil narcistist who worked for a man who was even worse.

I can place my personal judgment to a man’s life but the hereafter is the domain of the ultimate Judge.

My mother taught me not to speak ill of the dead, so here goes...

As others have said, “Less said -> Better said.”

(Another of Kennedy's mistakes laid to rest. )

Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish. Hope all his “Whiz Kids” join him soon.

[stayathomemom]

I know it sounds insensitive, but with each of these deaths being announced my first thought is, “Well, they won't have to watch the Michael Jackson coverage anymore.” My second is, “They have escaped the clutches of Obama.”

[ladyjane]

sending troops in harms way during vietnam...

He made sure his own draft-age son never went.

[Lurker]

Golly I sure hope it wasn’t excruciatingly painful or anything...

[US Navy Vet]

Good!

[OldSmaj]

Take a bit of good advice, If you can't say something nice Then don't say anything else at all. Shhhhhh!

Nope, nope, won't stay quiet on this piece of human dung.

He was a butcher, plain and simple, sending men to their certain deaths, knowing the consequences of his actions, refusing to oversee and refine the logistical and government support needed for us to win that damned war.

He played Chief Executive Officer, as though the act of sending men to war was just another business decision, a role he relished mainly for the power it gave him.

He abused that power, he experimented with the lives of good men, then turned his back on them.

He cared not a whit for the lives he caused to be wasted.

He would not let us win that stinking war.

I blame him above all others for that.

I, for one, do not care one little bit what happens to his moldy body, roll it up in a VC flag and roll him into a pile of water buff dung, for all I care.

After my mom died the other year, my sisters and I went through some old pictures. We found a picture of my dad and McNamara from WWII. I was assigned to investigate it and quickly found that McNamara was indeed on Guam with my dad at the time when McNamara was an assistant to LeMay and they were scouting out possible B-29 bases.

Dad died young, but we did remember him talking about meeting somebody from the Kennedy Administration back in WWII, we figured it was just a War Story.

[RetSignman]

Pity.
