Anybody out there think Chuck Hagel WON'T be confirmed? If so, I got a fixer-upper in Moreno Valley I'd like to sell you!
Personally, I think it will be REFRESHING to have a Sec Def working for the US, instead of Israel. And I don't give a rat's ass about homophobic remarks Hagel made 16 years ago, when he and every other GOP senator was trying to block a Clinton appointment (yeah, 16 years ago, the GOP was trying to make CLINTON'S life miserable- plus ca change, as the French say)
The president has his BIG paddle out, guys, the one with the holes in it!
Next after Hagel... Debt Ceiling 2! Line up, Republicans, and bend over!
The GOP lost seats in the House and Senate and lost the White House. The fact that they feel they get to drive the agenda in DC highlights their arrogance and stupidity.
I dont know much about this guy, so sorry if i sound skeptical, but AIPAC are incidious and may well have infiltrated by making him falsely act anti-semitic whilst actually doing Israels bidding. Indeed, Miko Peled has noted the whole Iran smokescreen is just to deflect attention from Gaza: There will be no invasion.
With Hagel's scorn and contempt of gays I would have thought the LBGT crowd here would have jumped all over this thread...
They didn't jump all over Byrd for being a KKK organizer and they didn't jump all over Clinton for abusing his power position to get sexual favors from an intern, so why should they jump on Hagel?
