Architect of the Vietnam Conflict is gone. What will we say about that generation in history? Were they really more impulsive than their predecessors. I don't think so. Just the microscope was on their every decision. At least there were men that were still alive to lead and direct us. Regardless of the fact that I disagreed with that war and that conflict. There was an entire group of men that were committed to that conflict and spared neither life nor limb to defend us. God bless America that there were men who think. What will we say about our generation?
Will Obama's cabinet make any productive decisions? Will they accept the status quo? Will they inject some hope and incentive into this rollercoaster economic status that we've inherited? Someone has to do something. The death of a real man like McNamara marks the end of decisive manhood. Making a decision where the lights and the cameras are on you! He was the first of the talking picture men to do that. I don't think he made a right decision or a good decision, but decisive and forthright, he most certainly was. We must continue to pray that although this President and cabinet is young like Kennedy and McNamara, God will direct them and affect them toward life and not toward death as in those days. Cuban missile crisis, Vietnam, there will always be wars and there will always be men who play at leading. God raise up the men like the McNamaras who will stand and make decisions and stand by them in spite of the populous and considering the populous.
