who actually learn from their history. and that's one of the reasons i support the Hagel pick . i wouldn't support him for something like president or vice president or even senator. but this is a specific area and Obama is still the job so i think it will work out well.

what i notice about most of the right wing Hagel critics are they are war mongers who never served themselves.

Graham can't be taken seriously anymore . but Kerry was able to deal with him and McCain .
