CNN has Rep Chuck Hagel (R) saying America needs the truth.

[joeunderdog]

Making fair-minded remarks about Intelligence breakdown, the seriousness of the problem and the need to know whether this is about "faulty or abused" Intelligence.

Go Chuck! I'll be sending him a note of praise tomorrow.

Next story was called "Deadly Summer" and talked about the continued ambushes of troops in Iraq.

1. Great for Hagel but..

This is the same Chuck Hagel that is implicated in conflicts of interest and possible voter fraud with his investment in ES&S. Can
we trust him or is this just to put a fake investigation out there to kill it or bury the reports like they have the 9/11 investigation report?

Hagel’s ethics filings pose disclosure issue
http://www.thehill.com/news/012903/hagel.aspx
One underlying issue is whether Hagel properly disclosed his financial ties to Election Systems & Software (ES&S), a company that makes nearly half the voting machines used in the United States, including all those used in his native Nebraska.

An official at Nebraska’s Election Administration estimated that ES&S machines tallied 85 percent of the votes cast in Hagel’s 2002 and 1996 election races.

4. Maybe he wants to be PRESIDENT HAGEL

and to tell you the truth, I'd rather have him than what we've got. And no matter what his motivation, he's at least telling the TRUTH, which an awful lot of people don't have the BALLS to do!

5. most people are very complex

and I think Chuck Hagel is as well. I was startled by these conflicts of interest as I believe he's a pretty straightforward guy. And, remember, he's a veteran. I think the judgment of veterans is going to be especially harsh.

for Bush. When the republicans turn on him it will be wretched and ugly.
