No one will miss Sen. Hagel which is why he made the comments above- an attempt to be recognized when no one cares about him.

Service record, glad you asked. 10 Years 4 months and 6 days Commissioned Officer USMC. Exactly, 10 years 4 months and 6 days more than Obama’s record.

Sen Hagel is like so many in Washington, all talk and lousy votes and policies.

I am not a Limbaugh listener but he has survived for 20 years in a very competitive industry through D and R administrations.

Anonymous bloggers- cowards who can’t stand behind their thoughts or actions.

Repubs of the War Party sect got themselves in a lather re: the French when the same French would not be bullied into the Iraq War UN votes or the Coalition of the Willing. While said repubs were Getting Their War On, they were also busily renaming French Fries to Freedom fries and other such 8th grader behavior as if demonizing the French would somehow prove that the Iraq business had some moral authority.

The ending of this tale, you know.

As summarized, Hagel made 3 main points:

1. Rush Limbaugh and his ilk are infatuated with power, but couldn’t govern.

2. Currently, the drive to stay in power is overwhelming the desire to govern.

3. There’s always a supply of idiots who can’t discriminate between the desire to govern and the drive to be in power.

Whatever the party or the context, this is wisdom.

“… why do Republicans hate the French so much? Are they still angry that we needed them to get independence? Are they jealous that the Statue of Liberty was made by the French?”

Once again you have invalidated the old adage that there’s no such thing as a stupid question.

Hagel wasn’t that moderate and he pretty proudly voted with Bush except for some foreign policy stuff. He was in the non-belligerent wing of the conservatives or, put another way, he could manage to be a conservative and a grownup at the same time, which is a thing to respect. If only because it is so rare.

I agree with Mike for once. Moderate Republicans give me hives. They talk tough but vote with Bush anyway.

That is a good question – why do Republicans hate the French so much? Are they still angry that we needed them to get independence? Are they jealous that the Statue of Liberty was made by the French?
