If it wouldn’t dishonor the men on the wall so much, I think it would be fitting for this SOB to have to wake up on judgment day, looking right into that wall, with the name of every casualty he was responsible for.
There are casualties in all wars. If plans are sound and execution is good, then the SecDef is not responsible for the deaths that will occur. He will have saved lives by implementing a sound plan.
If the policies are not sound, the plans are not sound, and more people die as a result, the SecDef deserves to be skewered for it.
McNamera, I personally believe you are more responsible than any other human being for the millions of people who died in the region.
Jane Fonda and the leftist ilk of the 60s & 70s come in second.
The liberals in our Congress, come in a very strong third.
Don't forget LBJ.
