I'm really going to miss the "primary architect of U.S. involvement in the war in Vietnam"....not.
Rejoice all Vietnam Veterans ... the one responsible for many brothers-in-arms' death is dead. Too bad it took so long for the earth to be rid of this scum. Semper Fi. On this memorial day I thank Vietnam Vets afresh for their honorable and great military service ... God bless you all.
bye bye CFR member scum...they told the people in the 1960's they we're fighting "communism" in vietnam...now they tell them they're fighting "terrorism" in iraq, afghanistan etc...different words, same sham...RIP...not
Yes, the bum knew all along that the war was 'unwinnable.'
Just wait until the 58,000 souls he killed meet up with him
in the next life.
Another DEM/lib moves on to hell for the hell they caused
the US
RIP Mac, your abhorrent leadership in Vietnam won't be forgotten by all the brave souls living and dead who fought there.
So the planner of the last unwinnable war just died.Freedom isn't Free also these wars weren't fought for you and me.
I just watched Born On The 4th of July this weekend. It brought back a lot of memory's. This was Kennedy's war and may the both rot in hell.
Vietnam was such a waste of lives and Americans were against this war more than any other. Boy were DRAFTED at 18, not like today's soldiers that enlist. Mr McNamara you died to easy a death.
As a VietNam vet I am glad to see him gone. He lied to the American people to keep us in the war. We were winning when we left but the media and the "Left" forced us to leave. What a waste........
"......McNamara disclosed that by 1967 he had deep misgivings about Vietnam — by then he had lost faith in America's capacity to prevail over a guerrilla insurgency that had driven the French from the same jungled countryside. Despite those doubts, he had continued.... In that period, the number of U.S. casualties — dead, missing and wounded — went from 7,466 to over 100,000."
Deep Misgivings my ass. $$$$$ to be made on owning the right stock and cashing in with American lives. It must be easy to recognize your wrong when your getting close to the end of your life and there are no penalties to pay ....except with your soul.
Not much to say. I'm too young to comment on the Viet. War. I'm sure there are veterans who have an opinion one way or the other on his contributions.

what a great day for the fourth of july,, this ego manaic is responsible for the deaths of over 50,000 americans and maiming hundreds of thousands. This will be a great prelude to when the bushman dies also.
A lot of different replies posted in support or disagreeing with this gentleman, but the truth is only God can judge him. We don't know what his last days were like or if he made peace, and was heartily sorry for past events, but again who are we to judge him?
He and George HW Bush both profited from the stuffing of body bags full of heroine and other illegal drugs during the Hamburger Hills of Viet Nam. May God damn both their souls in the lowest hell.
Good bye Robert! Robert was one of the ones who was in bed with Johnson (Dumbocrat) who has the blood of 60,000 dead on his hands. Johnson and the Dumbocrats would not allow the troops to fight the war as they did in Korea and WW2. The politicians were the ones who made the decisions on which would take place on the battle field! McNamara and Johnson along with the founder of the Vietnam War(John F. Kennedy) are plagued with corruption, death and guilt! I will say to the men who fought over there this! Thank you for fighting for our nation. Thank you for our freedom, You are our true heros and along with myself and many others, you will always be our heros! God bless the United States and our Military
Another war criminal who escaped paying for his crimes ,Well if there is a HELL he'll be there waiting for Bush,Cheney,Kissinger,and a lot of you cretins who enabled these despots
Good Lord, all of the negative comments about a dead man (Rest in peace). Good or bad, keep your smiles and bullsh*t comments to yourselves and respect the dead no matter who they are. Some die more respectfully and with more honor than others, but at the end of the day, we all meet our maker.
Ms. Lilac......actually it was not a Kennedy War. You might like Ike, but Eisenhower took a pass from the French who tried for years and continued the tragedy..Its like people invading our country, well armed and trained so they can change a religion (muslim) or better the world (we should better take care nof the USA first ) Worldwide, people are sick of us sticking our noses up the rest of the worlds' a-s. oh..you know McNamaras' middle name is STRANGE....it fits..Henry K, you're next
Good job Vernon. Plus tell loopy that Eisenhower started our Vietnam involvement, not Kennedy, however there is enough blame to go around to both parties.
Good riddance to bad rubbish. Groupthink at its best.
Hopefully big spenders Teddy Kennedy and Bobby Byrd will follow soon.
If I didn't know any better, I'd swear that it was Robert McNamara who was giving all that good advice and strategy for the Iraq war to Bush. I mean, the old boy did such a good job with Vietnam, and Bush was positively stellar over this pesky Irqa thingy...
my family was very close to henry cabot lodge not many people have that kind of exposure to the level of my family so close to be in the same room as lbj and kennedy and mr strange witch was robert's midde name he was a great man i respect him more than most in history sgt.york and audie murphie rank high too lbj and his texas defence industry duped everybody congressional miitary industrial complex rember that warning funny how kennedy died in texas defence industry based in texas to this day lbj from texas bush from texas and now we have another war kbr haliburton black water cheney lots of connections all texas so often so over looked i am not blaming texas its self thats were this s*** comes from not robert godbless him a truely great man and leader
McNamara was rubbish from the start. Whether or not he is in hell is irrelevant. I just wished that he went over there in 1964 and died in a plane crash or something. Maybe then, there would be some changes that came earlier, but I doubt it. He was Johnson's puppet.
I read the Vietnam War described as: "the unwilling, led by the incompetent, to do the unnecessary, for the ungrateful." That just about says it all.
For all the kiddies that were absent that one day that America History was taught in school do some research.The U.S. involvement in VietNam was a result of it's participation in SEATO,South East Asia Treaty Organization. Eisenhower initiated U.S. involvement in VietNam. It's in the history books,plain as day.
