Riddle me this.. Why is the Republican attack dog/smear machine NOT
uttering a word about heretical remarks from Chuck Hagel, so far as I can tell? (re: Iraq = Vietnam, it's a mistake, we should leave etc.)

If any prominent Democratic politician said the same things -- A WITCH! HERESY! Dick Durbin treatment.

Is it because he's the groomed successor, or some other reason?

Are they saying bad things about him on Rush and Faux that I'm missing because I don't listen or watch those shows?

2. Wait for the new talking points Monday...
I'm sure that Chuck is on the short list of hiers to W still... if he gets dropped from the list, these comments will be used against him.

3. I wonder if the Free Republicans have had any comments about Hagel.
Is it cognitive dissonance? I would assume support for the Iraq misadventure is a party line on their board.
