→Another concern: WP damning Teller
::: Also, a lot of the treatement of Oppenheimer had nothing to do with communism, communism was an excuse by a number of people who didn't like him. I strongly recommend that anyone who hasn't done so read Priscilla McMilla's "The Ruin of J. Robert Oppenheimer And the Birth of the Modern Arms Race" [[User:JoshuaZ|JoshuaZ]] 22:00, 5 March 2007 (EST)

:I just looked at the WP article on Teller [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Teller], and it has stuff like this:
:: The most damning piece of testimony, as seen by contemporaries and later historians, was his statement that: "If it is a question of wisdom and judgment, as demonstrated by actions since 1945, then I would say one would be wiser not to grant clearance."
: I don't know what would be "damning" about that; JRO had his hearing and the authorities ended up agreeing with Teller. This is another example of WP bias that it uses unnamed sources like this to damn Teller. If there are people who really say that someone could dishonestly maintain commie connections (as JRO did) and still keep a security clearance, then they should be named.
