Ferrier Fried Berg Germany " Salute to Inman Hooray for retired adm. Bobby Inman. Here finally is a Man with the guts to stand up and fight what he Calls modern his press conference carried live by american forces network on Jan. 18, was a breath of fresh air in the polluted atmosphere of Washington politics and press manipulation. Having worked for the . Govern ment in the Field of Public affairs for nearly 23 years i can empathize with the Admiral and understand the reasoning behind his withdrawal As nominee for Secretary of defense. I believe that aftera Long and distinguished career in Public service Inman is sending a message that reads i Don t need these headaches and i m not going to play your silly in my estimation he would probably have been one of the most out standing individuals to Ever Lead the de sense department. But what a pity we will never know. His comments were an indictment of methods used by some of today s politicians and members of the news Media to twist words and by innuendo half truth or omission destroy reputations ruin careers and practice character assassinations. Unfortunately these methods Are not restricted to the Washington Arena. They permeate nearly All Levels of government and news Media. I Nave personally experienced inquiries by reporters who Only want to Paw their Way through someone s dirty laundry just to boost newspaper sales Nielsen ratings or their own egos. They have no interest in the Public s right to know the truth. Hopefully none of them will Ever win a pulitzer prize. And the other Side of the Coin can be just As tarnished. I be also worked for so called government officials who thought that part of my Job was to mis Lead or lie to the press in order to protect a career a reputation or an organization. That i could not do and still maintain my integrity and self esteem. It is not an easy task. So my hat is off to Inman for his valiant Effort to Lead us out of the Bull and toward the truth. There Are not enough like him in Public service. Frank Shirar Hanau Germany dealing with doilies in All his infinite Wisdom surely it could t be finite m afraid that Sigo Nella Navy capt. Arends got to is statement backwards. Lawyers like most White Collar professionals Are a dime dozen. Choosing doilies on the other hand has always been quite a difficult task. What design color texture the choices Are endless. Does he truly believe that eliminating Competition is the Way tonsure Quality for a Man of his position Hope not. I bet he has ugly doilies. Or.
