Chuck Hagel: Can he really be THIS stupid?

It seems more and more that the pull quotes from the Sunday morning political shows no longer make any real news. Well that went out the window yesterday.

Let me say upfront that for the life of me I cannot understand why Nebraska "Republican" Chuck Hagel thinks he has any chance whatsoever in wooing enough GOP primary voters to give him the Presidential nomination in 2008. Hagel is about as empty a suit as you'll find on Capitol Hill to begin with. But he seems to be more politically tone-deaf than anyone I've seen yet who is vying for the Presidency.

Here is his take on the future of a U.S. troop presence in Iraq:

"It would bog us down, it would further destabilize the Middle East, it would give Iran more influence, it would hurt Israel, it would put our allies over there in Saudi Arabia and Jordan in a terrible position. It won't be four years. We need to be out."

Could he give the enemy any greater positive assurance about the effect of their current activities against both U.S. and Iraqi troops? At best, Hagel is a moron - so wrapped up in his own ego and his time in front of the camera that he is incapable of realizing that such public statements are as detrimental to the safety of our troops as the ridiculous "gitmo" statements spewed recently by IL Democrat Dick Durbin. At worst, his idiotic utterings are borderline treasonous.

He goes on to say that "the longer we stay there, the more similarities (to Vietnam) are going to come together". Here's a news flash to Chuck: The only similarity between Iraq and Vietnam is that we still have the same Left-wing pinheads undermining everything we are accomplishing by giving aid and comfort to the scumbags that are attacking our men and women in uniform.

The MSM refuses to report all the positive news that comes out of Iraq every day - which can be found here - and instead sits with bated breath at the next moonbat rant of Cindy Sheehan so they can run with that.

Hagel may still decide not to run at all, but if he does run he'll be out before the first primary because the only money he's going to be able to raise will be from rich Democrats trying to keep his candidacy alive. But mark my words, come New Year's Day 2008 it will be D.O.A.
