But it is even more important to tell the
truth, pleasant or unpleasant, about him than about any one else."
Theodore Roosevelt
Kansas City "Star"
May 7, 1918

Easy for Teddy to say in 1918. I wonder what his opinion would have
been in, say, 1906?

Yeah, well, we all know how TR hated getting into fights.
But if he thought that disputing the executive branch harmed the military's
efforts or morale, he picked an odd time to speak out, considering that four of
his sons were at the front.
