Finally a Republican Talks Back — Rep. Pompeo Shows How

Alexander Haig, former NATO Supreme Allied Commander and Secretary of State, died earlier today. He was 85. Back in June 1983, at his Essex House suite, he met with a group of European journalists we were showing around New York and Washington. He and his aide Woody Goldberg couldn’t have been more cordial. He had a most sobering view of foreign policy reality. Every day, he said, he had set out to work determined that a given situation wouldn’t worsen. He had no illusions.

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

Saw him speak at the White House after President Reagan had been shot. He was, as Secretary of State, the senior member of the President's Cabinet present. When he said that he was in charge at the White House, I totally understood that as the Senior Man present, he was in charge until the Vice President or a Senior returned. I'd just gotten out of the Army and GEN Haig did what I had done many times when my Seniors weren't present and I represented my Unit at that moment. May he Rest in Peace.

General Haig has always endeavored to promote the China-US friendship, and has made positive contribution for the development of the bilateral relations. Gamer

It was, as foreign minister and a senior member in the current cabinet and the president. When he said he was in charge at the White House, I understand very well that such a great man, he was in control until the vice president or a senior back
