The simple truth that people like Noonan miss is that credentials, including military service, no matter how sterling or impressive, do not necessarily bespeak wisdom or future achievement, any more than exquisite manners, as Jane Austen has taught us, bespeak a true gentleman.Judging from the impeachment hearings, it appears to me that 'credentials' are a mark of self-important, pompous, narcissistic, arrogant blockheads.
