Sounds Appealing

Jonathan Rauch’s piece on Dwight Eisenhower and the foreign policy vision he handed down to a generation of foreign policy practitioners, includes this little gem:

Eisenhower’s staff secretary and closest aide, Gen. Andrew Goodpaster, once said of his boss, “He was an expert in finding reasons for not doing things.”

Sounds like a good attribute in a president to me.
