Hagel: Iraqi WMD Clouds Bush Credibility

I think he's a jerk and I'm glad they didn't put him on the ticket.

I think thats the real reason he is acting like a jerk, because he didn't get put on the ticket. Some people become bitter, I guess he is one of them. He's also highly ambitious, and looking to make a run for the white house in 2008.

I think there is more to Hagel than the average person perceives. This middle American Indepependent minded combat veteran is not the whole story. I've watched him and there is something disturbing about him. Even Mccain is not hitting Bush on Iraq. You and I know that reports of Hussein's WMD predate Bush's presidency. For the Left and willing accomplices like Hagel to suggest Bush invented it is dishonrable, dishonest and unpatriotic.

To lie to the American people to gain politically or to satisfy some mysterious third party (like I believe Hagel is doing) is disgraceful.

At the risk of sounding like Mcarthy, if I were a foreign government I would use a Heartland combat veteran to do my bidding rather than a Bernie Sanders Socialist type.

It would be a brilliant move to get a planted politician on intelligence committees, etc.

We know the Soviets infiltrated the State Dept.
And we saw how the Chinese bought elections in the 90's. It seems to me , to be very likely, that foreign powers would finance and control powerful politicians to shape policy, obtain intelligence, and every so often go on Sunday morning shows to blast the President.

He likes to be called monkey-boy. And he is pretty damn conservative.

[faithincowboys]

Monkey boy President? Who did you get that from Ted Rall? Begala? Molly Ivins? If you want me to take you seriously don't use Maureen Dowd speak to slam the President.

[ValenB4]

I have long watched Hagel, and I suspect he might have an allegiance to a foreign power. I don't think it's France, but it could be the Russia. He just has something a little off about him.

There's something a little off about you. Maybe you should apply for a job with the CIA. Believe me, the day you start taking me seriously is the day I will check myself into Chit-Chat Farms.

monkey boy president

Well! You are breathtakingly revolting in your commentary.

And as wrong as wrong can be, but one wouldn't expect one of such immense dimness to perceive such.

Poor thing.

[Cathryn Crawford]

Well! You are breathtakingly revolting in your commentary.

And as wrong as wrong can be, but one wouldn't expect one of such immense dimness to perceive such.

I enjoy your commentary on our monkey-boy friend. Very nice, very nice indeed!

[ValenB4]

That's a pretty good insult. I like breathtakingly revolting. Very good. Immense dimness is also good.

[faithincowboys]

Well, I think it is probably a tad more rational to think Hagel (who knows that Iraq was thwarting inspectors, had previously gassed the Kurds, that Congress passed the regime change in Iraq act in 1998, that Clinton and the Dems cited an Iraq-WMD-Terrorism nexus, etc, etc) is playing fast and loose for a foreign power than to think our "monkey boy" President invented Hussein's WMD, got us into war for an Oil junta, was the puppeteer behind Clinton's Op. Desert Fox, that Bush's oil buddies created in their labs, Mrs. Anthrax, Dr. Germ and Chemical Ali. All of those folks got their names for benign, non-WMD reasons, I'm sure.

I am left to assume malevolent motivations where Mr. Hagel is concerned because there is so much on the damn record that wouldn't allow an intelligent, honest man to say the things he says.

And when somebody borrows heavily from Maureen Dowd columns, I am left to believe that they aren't the average Freeper.

[ValenB4]

I'm not the average Freeper. I can balance a ball on my nose and jumps through hoops.

[faithincowboys]

Yeah, I know. You're too busy reading Dowd and snickering about Rall's nerdy,noxious toons to read up on the facts.

If you had even a one night stand with the truth, you might be worth something.

Right now, you're coming off like a creepy cross of Daschle and Mcaullife.

You should really change that, it's not attractive.

[faithincowboys]

And ride the small yellow bus and wear your retainer at the same time. Truly talented!

[ValenB4]

Those are pretty funny. I'll give you that. But I'm too busy getting laid to keep this going. Ciao.

[Cathryn Crawford]

Funny...so am I.

[faithincowboys]

What a lousy lay. Typing and doing the deed. I guess blow up dolls aren't too demanding!

Sorry that was a bit harsh, but you left yourself so open. And you do love to throw venom, so I guess it was fair.

[ValenB4]

I was throwing venom not at you, but at the Monkey Boy. You took it personally and now I have to check into Chit Chat Farms because this blow up doll is very high maintenance and only goes to the finest restaurants. And then doesn't eat.

[faithincowboys]

Well, I have to bite-- why on God's Earth do you hate "Monkey Boy" so much? And does your blow-up doll think it's normal that you hate the Prez so much and frequent sites where everybody else thinks the Prez is a swell guy? Might it be the same reason you continue to take your doll to expensive restaurants even though she doesn't have a digestive system?

Do you like to urinate in the wind?

[Cathryn Crawford]

You never take me to fine resturants. You treat your blow-up doll better than me. That's sad. Very sad. I'm going to go find a blow-up doll of my own.

[ValenB4]

I don't hate him. I believe he has engaged us in an unnecessary war with consequences that will come back to haunt us. Not an illegitimate opinion, despite the villaininzing by the neocons. I actually was on the Bush bandwagon before most. I do like tinkling in the wind - when it's from the direction behing me - that way I can get a nice flow that would hit automotons, incapable of independent thought, like you.

[ValenB4]

Good luck. Then you'll finally have someone you can beat in a debate.
