What you are allowed to think and what you do think are two different things, aren't they? That's another way of saying that this forum may be NSFW, if your boss is a Republican. A liberal won't fire you for it, but they'll laugh at you in the break room and you may not get promoted. Unless you're an engineer, of course, in which your obsession with facing reality is not actually a career-disabling disability.

Frank Charles Carlucci III (born October 18, 1930) was a government official in the United States, associated with the Republican Party. He was United States Secretary of Defense from 1987 until 1989.

Carlucci was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania. He graduated from Princeton University in 1952, and attended Harvard Business School in 1954-55. He was a naval officer from 1952-54. He joined the Foreign Service, working for the State Department from 1956 until 1969. In 1961 he participated in a CIA mission to Congo, in which he used his athletic ability to rescue US citizens from mobs.

During the early 1970s he became a protégé and was a former roommate at Princeton with Donald Rumsfeld and Caspar Weinberger. He was undersecretary of Health, Education and Welfare when Weinberger was secretary during the Nixon administration.
