NO.

We don’t do that on Free Republic. Ok bud.

When someone dies, we offer thoughts and prayers to their family. Because we have class. and we believe all fall short of the grace of God.

I know that was a very painfull time for the USA. But I am sure Mr McNamara felt the pain, just as Lyndon Johnson did, just as Richard Nixon did. Does anyone doubt that Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon LOVED this country ?. Bob McNamara doesn’t deserve hatred. God rest his soul. He served the United States of America. He was a patriot.

[Slump Tester]

"He was a patriot.

He was a patriot stupid a$$hole who got thousands of Americans killed through his arrogance and incompetence.

There, I fixed it for you.

[DeusExMachina05]

Excellent post. I agee with you.

[RightOnTheLeftCoast]

"Does anyone doubt that Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon LOVED this country?"

Yes, for one of them at least.

[Born to Conserve]

“We” . . .

Speak for yourself.

[cornelis]

A decent sentiment. Never mind those who disparage your age, the sentiment is older than them all. King Agamemnon urged Odysseus to curse Ajax. The hero's response was "No, he was my enemy in life." Odysseus understood what Hollywood won't. Odysseus knew he was a man, and mankind dies. There is no such thing as a good death. We should be better.

[RinaseaofDs]

Your reply needs a sarcasm tag.

It is inexplicable how McNamara ended up in the positions he ended up, because he was dangerously incompetent.

Before you go telling Laz what to do, you need to do some research on Project 100,000.

Bad man, good death, indeed.

You’re entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts, kid.

Bwahahahaha!

"Does anyone doubt that Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon LOVED this country ?"

Not as much as they loved themselves and the power they craved.

[going hot]

you are entitled to your opinion.

.Personally, I want to know where he will be buried so I can go piss on his grave.

I am still hoping that hanoi jane will meet her demise before myself, so I can piss on her grave as well.

If the Lord has a problem with that, the Lord knows they both deserve it.

Speaking as a veteran of both Korea [’68-'69], and Viet Nam [1971], sorry, “Bud”, but that POS and his idiot CinC got way too many of their betters killed and wounded in a war they had NO intention of winning [wasn't the one LBJ wanted to win, the one on poverty]

They ignored their generals, actually ordered initiating points on bomb runs up north, and tried to get the other side to the table by upping the ante incrementally. And, oh yeah, McNamara kept his draft age kid OUT of the draft, and went on to tell us how the war we fought was WRONG.

So YOU offer thoughts and prayers to his family. I hope he rots in hell. Keep your class. I have my memories.

Oh, please. Don’t suppose to speak for me and others. The man deserves to burn in Hell. Dying doesn’t sanctify him. If God wants to forgive him, fine. But I don’t have to.
