I watched a talk recently with Bjarne Stroustroup where he claimed he never developed C++ as an "Object Oriented" language, just that it had some OO based abstractions. Apparently it got labelled as such at the time because OO was in vogue but it has many great features quite apart from that. His intention was that it just be a "better C" and be used as such.
