[liberaliraqvet26]

1. Yep,

and, unfortunately, that'll help him with moderates and the perennial 'swing voter'.

[liberaliraqvet26]

3. he's the best were gonna get as a senator from NE...

probably more reliable than Ben Nelson. He can't win a Republican primary in '08, he has a brain and uses it, the freepers don't like that.

15. He's usually set himself apart in that respect

but I'm not familiar enough with his fiscal politics to be overly optimistic.

2. Why is it a swiftboating,

The fun part is to see ultraconservative idiots like Allen congratulating the NorthVietnameses.

4. Are they really attacking hagel?

5. Hagel is looking like Hanoi Jane.

Hagel is an ass.

Hagel and McCain, I have no respect for them, fools on a hill.

6. "fools" that actually fought in a war

jackass chickenhawk freepers

13. What an idiot

Hagel and McCain, I have no respect for them, fools on a hill.<<

Another Moran who doesnt actually KNOW the lyrics to a song. The fool on the hill is of course actually a wise man. And the fool on the hill, sees the sun going down, and the eyes in his head, see the WOOOOORLD, Spinning roouund. The point is that with introspection a man can see beyond what his eyes tell him, not a shock that to a Moran wingnut that makes him an acutal fool.

7. So please post what they're saying. I refuse to go to their site!

9. War On Terrorism, al Qaeda, Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy...

you know, the usual. Believe. Follow. Deny.

8. That's Always Been Rove's M.O.

Attack right at the heart of an opponent by outrageously condemning the strongest part of that person's character. Make it as personal, as vile, and as unbelieveable as you can. Then rely on your foot soldiers to repeat the lie until it has to be responded to.

If they now begin to use the strategy on themselves, let them. I don't care how they're destroyed, although destruction by their own hands does have a rather delicious literary quality.

10. Sample of their posts...

FROM THE FREEPERS>>>

As far as I am concerned, Hagel is now with Cindy Sheehan and Michael Moore

If it's looking like vietnam then Chuckie HAgel must have been on that Christmas in Cambodia flight of fancy Hanoi John Kerry said was seared in his memory.Maybe Chuck and
Cindy She hand wer eholding hands as they got fired on the
Kmer Rouge.

Hagel...is this bitch still considered a republican? I'm expecting him to join Cindy in the ditch at any moment

"we're not winning." "He has a point. We are not being anywhere NEAR brutal enough." If he advocated what you advocated, he would have said it. He would have advocated attacking Iran militarily, or have raids into terrorist havens in Syria, or said that the whole GITMO allegations are nonsense and we need to line up terrorists we capture and execute them. He didnt. He simply is a 'cut-n-run' media whore RINO, saying what feels good to get attention and feed mindless defeatism on the subject.

As a native Nebraskan, I wish to apologize to the entire civilized world for Chuck Hagel."

Apology accepted :-) ... there is an American Spectator article "Ground Chuck" written in February.

He's got basically a John Kerry view on internationalism,
has stopped attempts to defend the boy scouts,
does his best to undermine religious conservatives (eg Rep Jon Christensen race in 1998).

Maybe someday we can get a real conservative to run against him.

12. I must say I LOVE the Ground Chuck nickname!

Thanks for the snips.

I guess I can understand then hating Hagel and McCain. I had to appologize for Zell Miller too!!!

11. Hagel, the guy who won a stunning upset with the advent of computerized

voting?
Pfft. I trust him for sure. :sarcasm:
