Errol Morris' documentary on McNamara, The Fog of War is well worth your time to watch.
The parallels with Donald Rumsfeld's time as Secretary of Defense are remarkable - it seems Rumsfeld was making all the moves and mistakes that McNamara made. I fully expect Eric Schmidt to suffer the same fate.

- sjm-lbm 6y agoInterestingly, Morris also made a similar documentary on Rumsfeld: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Unknown_Known https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Unknown_Known It's (IMHO) not as good as The Fog of War, but it's still very much worth a watch.
