Uhhh, no shyte Sherlock

OMAHA, Neb. – U.S. Sen. Chuck Hagel writes in a new book that the United States needs independent leadership and possibly another political party, while suggesting the Iraq war might be remembered as one of the five biggest blunders in history.

Dude? POSSIBLY?

During visits to the Middle East in December 2002, Hagel said, Israel’s top security officials asked, “Do you really understand what you are getting yourselves into?” Hagel said Bush personally assured him that he would exhaust diplomatic avenues before committing troops to Iraq. The senator said he voted for the war resolution based on those assurances, but regrets the vote because it’s now clear that lawmakers were presented with lies and wishful thinking.

And yet, impeachment will never happen.  What a disgrace we have become.

    So Bush lied. What a shock. Hagel should have been tipped off by W’s lips moving.

    Give Hagel his wish. Unless the Dem’s opposing them stick open government bills in their drawers, or vote for Delmarva’s high price substitute for cheap wind, bury every other Republican in a ton of bad press.

    There will be no Republican party the next day after the election.

    They are so hurting. In the old days we would have tarred and feathered anyone daring to write a check to the Republican Party. Thank heavens for civility.
