    It’s hard to rally the war lobby if you’ve actually got military experience. The war lobby wants unbridled enthusiasm for bombs, bullets and body bags when THEY call for it, without second thoughts, statistical proof or moral qualms. Lindsey, Cheney, Romney, Cruz, how much boot camp have they got between ‘em? Sad excuses for ’governance.’

    I said it before, and I will say it again…

    I think it’s very telling when McGrumpy says that Hagel would have been a good choice for HIS Secretary of Defense!
    Of course, if a Democrat wants him for the EXACT same job, well then, he’s totally unqualified!
    Yeah. Right.
    Time for McGrumpy to retire to Arizona, and take up his new job, yelling at those kids to stay off his lawn!

    Bipartisanship, Republican style.

    One of the prime tenents of modern day republicanism is party above all. Hagel chose country first, allowing the President to look good on national defense, and paid the price.

    But looking to the future “Revenge is a dish best served cold!”
    Lets see where their epic insults gets the repubby’s as we head down the road to military cuts?

    Spamming the comment boards sucks, even good comments suck when pasted multiple times.

    Well said.

    I think the best thing about this nomination process was that the Democrats finally stood up to the Filibuster. And they busted it.
    .
    The Republicans are not now (nor do I believe have they ever been) as singular as they wanted the Democrats to believe. It’s not 55 to 45, it’s 45 to find 5 (assuming you have all of your own, which, many times you won’t).
    .
    This is why I’m no fan of Harry Reid.

    Well, with two cartoons that are almost identical, I figure two comments that are almost identical is kind of appropriate!

    “Democrats finally stood up to the Filibuster. And they busted it.”
    ♦
    With a vote of 71/27 to proceed with Hagel’s nomination, I’d say that it wasn’t just Democrats that were against continuing the filibuster. It was disappointing that only 5 (I think) Republicans voted Yea. It was more disappointing that no Democrats voted Nay.

    Interesting statistics on “crossover” secretaries in administrations going back to WW 2.
