Well, the RINO gasbag from Nebraska who has made a career of putting the ‘bi’ in bi-partisan is going out in style. After making a career of mugging on the Sunday Morning talk shows, playing footsie with the Treason Media and other Democrats, undermining all Iraq efforts, and generally shivving all people and all things conservative, he opened fire in a vicious diatribe against Sarah Palin in what appears to be an interview with the local Omaha paper(h/t RMJ and Kilmer in recent RedHots). Some excerpts:
She doesn’t have any foreign policy credentials. You get a passport for the first time in your life last year? I mean, I don’t know what you can say. You can’t say anything.
I think it’s a stretch to, in any way, to say that she’s got the experience to be president of the United State.
I think they ought to be just honest about it and stop the nonsense about, ‘I look out my window and I see Russia and so therefore I know something about Russia,’ That kind of thing is insulting to the American people
As we like to say though, consider the source. The same article adds one more note:
Though he didn’t expect to be asked, Hagel had said he would have considered serving as Obama’s running mate.
So in closing, I loosely quote my hero Dick Cheney: Chuck, go #### yourself, pal.

Contact Chuckie:
The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.

Hagel is taking cheap shots at the knees of Palin with half-truths and irrelevancies.

Darin_H (Diary) Friday, September 19th at 6:25PM EST (link)You get a passport for the first time in your life last year?
I’m pretty sure that Gov Palin didn’t really need one prior to becoming Governor because you didn’t need a passport to travel to and from Canada (or Mexico) until last year. With becoming Governor, she had new responsibilities (like visiting ANG troops in the middle east).

Matthew Morris (Diary) Friday, September 19th at 6:37PM EST (link)I think I heard mention of this (with one of those quotes) on top of the hour ABC radio news today or yesterday (of course they had to mention it!) My immediate thought was, “what a scumface jerkbag. That’s just low class opportunism wrapped up and disguised as impartial, honorable, unbiased analysis. (typical chuck)
And now when I read all of it….
“I AM WHO I AM”; and He said, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”
Ipsum esse subsistens
Not even close Han.
mbecker908 (Diary) Friday, September 19th at 7:14PM EST (link)Lieberman is a thoughtful man who understands the world.
Hagel, Obama, the elected representatives of the Democratic Party, and you, are clueless internationalists who wouldn’t know national security, personal responsibility, honesty, ethics, or how to live without the control of the federal government over everyone’s lives if they bit you in the butt.
History will look back one day in the not too distant future, I fear, and point to the Democratic Party of the last 40 years, their Republican surrogates like Hagel, and their die hard supporters like you as the time when the American Dream died.
What a shameful group. Disgusting.

“The press is so powerful in its image-making role that it can make a criminal look like he’s the victim and make the victim look like he’s the criminal. If you aren’t careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”– Malcolm X, Audubon Ballroom, December 13, 1964
Are you shocked by him?

What more can you say about a guy who takes geography lessons from a NYC comedy hour?
Can you see Russia from Alaska? YES
Little Diomede Island, Alaska is about 2 1/2 miles from Big Diomede Island, Russia.
Map quest Chuck is only about 7 hundred miles off.
Hagel cut from the same cloth as Clinton?
mbecker908 (Diary) Friday, September 19th at 9:29PM EST (link)Not hardly. Hagel makes Bill Clinton look like an honorable man.
Good riddance from Nebraska
Husker (Diary) Friday, September 19th at 11:27PM EST (link)He’s pretty much worn out his welcome here in Nebraska. Talk about a violation of the voters trust.
Hey Chuck, that August pledge to stay out of the presidential campaigns lasted…what?…about a month. link
A classic example of a soon to be out-of-work politician, who wants to be liked by the press.
Those pesky Republicans were cramping his style, so he throws them under the Obamabus.
Good Luck, and Good Riddance.
Big difference between Joe and Chuck
Cowboy (Diary) Friday, September 19th at 11:47PM EST (link)Lieberman was re-elected after his support of the war. I doubt Hagel could do the same now.
