Silent Servants...

A Secular Franciscan looks at the world...
with a more jaundiced eye than ever...
and lots of ellipses for you to fill in the missing text...

R.I.P. - Robert McNamara

McNamara, defense chief during Vietnam War, dies

A Secretary of Defense who isn't so doctrinaire and certain of himself that he can't admit that he was wrong...

"We of the Kennedy and Johnson administrations acted according to what we thought were the principles and traditions of our country. But we were wrong. We were terribly wrong."
Rest in peace, Mr. McNamara.
